Christmas TAG

Hello everyone xoxo

Few days ago I was tagged by Hana from http://rimmelsmudge.blogspot.co.uk to do Christmas tag. I am happy to answer all the questions as I'm getting excited about this holiday and everything related to it.

What is your favourite Christmas movie?

Definitely Home Alone! I remember watching it every Christmas since my early age. Home Alone is such a funny film! My cheeks always hurt from laughing while watching this movie.

Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas Morning?

I live in Ukraine and we do not give gifts each others on Christmas.

On the 19th of December we have St.Nicholas Day, when according to the legend, Nicholas arrives in his sleigh and presents to all, adults and children, the gifts they asked for. So, I hope to open my presents in the morning of the 19th!

Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?

Last year me, my mum and dad went to the USA to visit our relatives during all the holidays. So we celebrated Christmas and New Year there.

I remember, on the Christmas Eve, me and my aunt decided to build a snowman. But our masterpiece looked like creepy creature from horror movie. Lol! Moreover, in few days weather had changed to warmer and all the snow melted. However our creepy man still greeted us everyday in the garden! Isn't weird?

Favourite Christmas gift?

I get excited about every gift presented to me so I can't highlight the special one.

Favourite Christmas scent?

La Petite Rode Noire by Guerlain. I know, it's not that Christmassy and stuff, but the scent of the perfume associates for me with winter and holidays!

Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions?

Yep, me and my mum always make dumplings on Christmas. Again, it's more Ukrainian tradition and can sound unclear for you :)

What tops your tree?

Blue star, which my mum always puts because me and dad are quite clumsy and can destroy our tree in few seconds :D

As a kid, what was one crazy gift you asked for but never received?

I asked for a dog. Still want it. Still waiting for it. Still hoping to get it.

What's the best part of Christmas for you?

Okay, okay, okay, it's ridiculously simple and typical but I think the best part of Christmas is chance to see your family members. We don't spend big amount of time together during the year so it's always nice to spend this holiday with them.

I also decided to tag three people but you can join tag as well! But don't forget to send me a link :)

Few Things That Make Me Happy

It seems like nowadays not that big amount of people feel happy.

Everybody is concentrated on their education, work and forget about value of daily things.

What was the last time you heard someone saying, "I'm so happy with my life now"?

First of all, you need to define what it means to you. For example, for me being happy means to be in harmony with world. I'm not trying to be hippy but actually it's the best feeling. People as Grace Denton, Sonya Esman inspire me to do and try things which are not typical / out of my comfort zone.

Recently I've been having bad days so I decided to sit down, grab a piece of paper, pen and write down list of things that make me happy. Here are some that came to my mind:

Candles

Traveling

Roadtrips

Listening to good music

Be around nice people

Sleep for 9 hours

Eat lots of grapefruits

Watch sunrise and sunset

Skiing

Spend time with family (they are the best and I love them very much)

Making snow angels

Laugh to abdominal pain

Be around and listen to wise people

Have a person you can rely on

Do not have any problems with health

Lots of candles

If everything goes according to my plan

Shopping

Success

Blogging

YouTube

Moments when everything is fine at school

Dogs and puppies :3

When my close people are happy

Watch comedies or cartoons

More candles and trips

Chocolate and cookies

Sales or offers in favourite shops

Be on the beach

Fly on planes

Makeup

I wanted to remind you that happiness is always around us. Sometimes we just pass it without any noting because we are overworried about things that we think are "important".

But actually they are not.

Stop overthinking.

Life is given only once so live how you want and do what bring you joy

Achieve your dreams and never stop believing

Do not be afraid to try different things that are new to you

Surround yourself with people who bring you only positive emotions

Do not waste your time on idiots

Smile more

New post coming soon xoxo

Thank you for support!

Create 11 questions for your nominees to answer

Let's get down to business. So excited, because it is my first time participating at such thing!

Kate's questions and my answers:

1. Where is one place in the world that you are desperate to go to?

I'm obsessed with traveling! I've been to so many places, but my "list to go" is still very long. One of my biggest dream is to go on holidays on Bahama Islands. Usually I spend lot of time watching different people's videos and photos took there and for me it seems to be a paradise! What a beautiful and peaceful place :)

2. If you could only use one makeup brand, which would you choose?

Hmmm....Such a hard question to answer. Yeah, I like makeup and stuff, but I don't have any preferences for brands. Is that okay? However, recently I've been using lots of L'Oreal products.

3. What is one lip product that you could use for the rest of your life.

Maybelline Colour Sensational Lip Liner in 132 Sweet Pink. Oh my God! After purchasing it, I've been using this lip liner way too much :D

4. You can create one ice cream flavour, what will you design?

Does pizza ice cream exist? No?

Maybe it would be quite weird and disgusting, who knows! I mean, I like pizza and ice cream, so why not to combine them?

5. What's that one song that always puts you in a good mood?

Wake Me Up by Avicii.

6. Which beauty routine to you dread the most?

Hair removal! Ugh, it stress me so much and I get nervous whether all my body hair is removed or not and etc. I am thinking about laser hair removal to eliminate the pain and time I waste doing/worrying about it

7. Do you prefer to use powder, pencil, gel or all three for your brows?

Powder all the way! I feel like gel or pencil are making my brows artificial. Also using powder is more comfortable and handy for me.

8. What is a skill or talent that you wish you had?

Singing. I wish I had beautiful voice. Also my neighbors would appreciate it because I usually sing while showering. Anyway!

9. Summer, Autumn, Winter or Spring?

Spring because my birthday is in April and summer because it is the best time of the year!

10. What would be your dream brand collaboration be? What would your line include?

I have never thought about it. I just want to continue doing what I love and enjoy. But I think I would like to have my own bag or shoe line.

11. Which celebrity do you wish you could be besties with?

Vanessa Hudgens! Seems to be such a funny girl. And also I like her style a lot. :)

Dear,

BeautyBalmer
