A Festive Tag
This week has been extra festive. I've been surrounded by lights, gifts, cards & more at any given moment. So when I saw this Christmas Questionnaire on Fleur's vlog channel yesterday I felt compelled to publish this on my own blog, so here it is!!

1. What is your favourite holiday nail polish? I own a lot of sparkly nail polishes but my ultimate favourite for Christmas time has got to be OPI's Animal-istic from their Muppets collection. It is the perfect Ruby Slipper red & it looks so so pretty on nails.

2. What is your favourite holiday movie? Hmm, when I was younger I used to always like watching Elmo Saves Christmas & The Muppet Christmas Carol, even though the latter was rather sad! Nowadays my favourite is Love Actually hands down. I watch it every Christmas Eve. If you haven't seen it this gift wrapping scene is rather entertaining.

3. Share your favourite Summer accessory. I tend to wear a lot more bracelets in Summer than any other time of year, I'm not really too sure why. My favourites at the moment are still the Bedrock Bones ones. They are great to wear by themselves or layered up.
4. Describe or show your favourite Christmas Ornament. This is an ornament that I got this year, I'm rather terrible at describing decorations so I'll let the picture speak for itself;
So pretty!

The Powder Room-Beauty Tips & Tricks.
Over the last few years I have grown to love all things beauty.
It has grown through admiration and education and over the years I have picked
up a few tricks I keep close to my chest. On request of Nana Wintour I have decided to
share a few of my top beauty tips.
1. Correctly applying skin care prior to make-up application is
important. It can change how your make-up sits. This is a trick I learnt from Sharon
at MAC Cosmetics in Britomart, Auckland. She applies my moisturiser and primers
using foundation and concealer brushes before applying foundation in the same
manner.
The brush provides even coverage of the product across the skin
stopping me from over using my favourite primer. They also stimulate and
massage the skin more effectively than a quick wipe of the hands helping with
blood flow movement.
2. Want make-up to last? Drink water. I work in an office all
day long with heavy air conditioning and although I use primer and sometimes a setting
spray the conditions are still having an effect on my skin. My skin is becoming dehydrated and dry and
literally drinking up my make-up.
Drinking water throughout the day made a huge difference for me
personally. Over time my skin improved and my make up was lasting the distance.
The water helps my body function to its optimum and helps my skin.
3. Invest in the correct tools. It’s amazing what the correct
tools can do. They may seem expensive at first but in the long run it pays off.
The use of a foundation brush for example over fingers can save you in product
and the application will look better. The use of the correct bun pins with your Pretty Bun can result in a more polished look than with the use of bobby pins. Sometimes it’s the small things that count and
can help you lift your game.

Brilliant Blogs, Edition 5.
How often do you stumble across a great product on a blog, only to find it is not sold where you live? How often do you find yourself avoiding critic's reviews because they're known to not favour their subjects? If you answered yes to either of the above then Hannah Rogers' blog is the blog for you.
