THE 2013 CHRISTMAS TAG

November 4, 2013 in LIFESTYLE, Uncategorized

image
1. Do you prefer a real Christmas tree or synthetic?
I prefer a real one because of the smell; but rarely get one as I have a very realistic large synthetic tree. I put my tree very early also, and I don’t think a real one would last.
2. You’re in a coffee shop, it’s December, what do you pick?
Hot Chocolate, with more whipped cream than liquid.
3. Whats your favourite colour scheme for decorating the tree?
A very traditional mish-mash of colours and decorations. All my favourite ornaments are very different from each other.
4. Giving or receiving?
Anyone who says ‘giving’ is a big Christmas liar. Receiving is best by far. Who doesn’t love presents?!
5. To mince pie or not to?
Eugh! No. Anything chocolate will do me just fine.
6. What’s your traditional Sunday lunch?
HAS to be turkey. Husband challenged me on that once at the beginning of our marriage. He hasn’t tried again. Huge mounds of sage and chestnut stuffing, little sausages, lots of gravy, Wholefoods bread sauce, roast potatoes, buttery carrots. Usually some sort of seafood for starter, and a raspberry dessert of some sort.
7. Christmas day fashion?
Pyjamas and no make-up all the way. Christmas is very private for me, so why not be comfortable.
8. What’s your favourite Christmas song?
Fairytale Of New York by The Pogues
9. What’s your favourite Christmas film?
Christmas With The Kranks… America does christmas soooo much better than us.
10. Open presents before or after lunch?
Before i.e. as early as possible without getting shouted at for waking people up at an upsurd time to watch.

PR sample — Happy #texturetuesday 🥳 This is t PR sample — Happy #texturetuesday 🥳 This is the brilliant new scalp treatment from @tresemmeuk - you get hair posts 2 days in a row! The Tresemme Purify & Hydrate Exfoliating Pre Shampoo Scrub is currently half price in Superdrug for just £3.02!
💆🏻‍♀️
This scrub is helping my hair to last longer between washes as my problem is that my roots get greasy fairly quickly. It does take a while to rinse out, but it’s worth that extra effort. The exfoliant is coconut shells! It also has menthol in it which is really refreshing & awakening in the morning.
💆🏻‍♀️
Adding this into my routine before a hydrating shampoo really deeply cleans my roots and stops them getting oily so fast, meaning that my roots and ends progress at the same dirtiness pace!

PR sample — You’ll have seen a lot of this pro PR sample — You’ll have seen a lot of this product over the last couple of weeks & it’s for good reason. It very much is, indeed, a miracle. In just 8 seconds, as your conditioner, this will give you the smoothest, sleekest, softest hair you’ve ever had. I’ve just ordered 2 more bottles.
🙌🏻
The L’Oreal Dream Lengths 8-Second Wonder Water is £9.99 and you’ll get no more than 10 applications per bottle, but it sure is ‘worth it’. Wonder Water is a breakthrough damaged hair treatment, in a rinse-out liquid conditioner formula that’s powered by Lamellar Water Technology. Moisturising agents and amino acids target dry, damaged areas of hair, forming thin layers called Lamella to smooth hair’s surface instantly transforming lengths for silkier, shinier and healthier-looking hair. 
🙌🏻
I’m honestly not sure I’ll ever use another conditioner again. You need it, go buy it. Now, now, now!

PR sample — There’s only a few more days to ge PR sample — There’s only a few more days to get your hands on this month’s epic @mintdbox - it’s a fantastic box this month, as usual. Now is the time to jump on board as a subscriber as I’ve been told March’s box is a super special one!
💗
In February’s box you get 4 full-size luxury skincare products (worth £212) for just £70! We all need some self-care time at the moment & that’s the theme of this month’s box!
💗
The Oskia Renaissance Mask is a cult favourite & I’ve loved it for years. It’s a thick lush balm that you lather on your face, leaving it for 20 mins to do it’s amazing exfoliation & radiance-boosting work. The Kora Organics Noni Bright Vitamin C Serum brightens, boosts skin elasticity, diminishes the appearance of lines and hydrates the skin too. The Aromatherapy Associates Rose Bath & Shower Oil is a heavenly treat. I apply it around my shoulders and chest, breathing  in the calming aroma, before getting into the shower. Finally, Prismologie’s Rose Quartz & Rose Balm soothes your mind and nourishes the skin on your body. It leaves you with a little bit of lustre too 💫

Gifted — I am beyond ready for the weekend. This Gifted — I am beyond ready for the weekend. This week hard been so full-on work wise, from all sides, and I’m knackered. I just want to lie in and read @tatlermagazine under my @finebeddingco  pink coverless quilt. It’s honestly like a big, soft, fluffy cloud & you just pick it in the washing machine & it’s super-fast drying too!
