Goodbye 2016

I'm not going to write a novel about what happened this year that'll always remember and blah blah blah. 2k16 was... average. A lot of stuff happened, bad and good, and let's just hope that 2k17 will be good to us.

Christmas Scented Candles // ❄

I love candles, of course, but especially Yankee candles. I've collected quite a few in the last two years, but I've never done a post where I show you the Christmassy ones that I own!

The ones in the little jars came in a set and I like to light them up all together.

Christmas Eve // it has a warm hearth, sugared plums and candied fruits. Fragrance notes:

Top - orange, almon, lime, lemon

Mid - red berry, cinnamon, nutmeg

Christmas Make-Up // ❄

The excitement for Christmas is getting real. Since Christmas is all about the glitters and the sparkle, I thought that this NYX palette, with its gold and green, was perfect for this look.

Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics: The Review

When Urban Decay announced that they were releasing a completely matte/neutral palette -all shades are new and exclusive to it-, I knew I had to get it. I think their eyeshadows are the best out there - the blendability and staying power are impressive. I already own the Naked Basics and the Naked 1, so I knew I was going to love this one as much as I love the two that I already have.

Christmas Tag // ❄

1. What is your favourite Christmas Movie/s?

My favourite Christmas movie has to be Home Alone. But I also love Trading Places and the Grinch, of course.

2. Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?

Ooh, Christmas Eve. 

3. Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?

I don't think I have a favourite Christmas memory, but I remember the excitement on Christmas Eve when it was finally time to open all the presents.
