One More Christmas

Heya!

First of all: MERRY CHRISTMAS or HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

(Harry Potter and Christmas? Nothing's better than that)

December is always a good month for me.
It's the last month of the first term in school, it's Christmas and adding the weather which is just perfectly cold. And obviously the blog anniversary. December 5th 2010 was my first post. Two years later and here I am. Still.

It's 2:27am and obviously my family and I have already opened our presents. So far, I'm pretty happy with what I've got. I'm probably writing about some of my presents during the next days just like last year. Thus keep an eye for it ;)

I'm sure everybody who logged on the internet today saw it but did you follow Santa around the world with Google Tracker?
I did. Right now he is in Rio de Janeiro.

Essence - Advent Calender: Winner

Hey!

So as you might know Essence is doing a funny thing until Christmas day, which is everyday they make a question and if you answer correctly you're able to win that day's prize. I was lucky enough to be one of the winners.
Honestly I had never won anything like this so I guess is fair to say Essence took my virginity in these kind of give aways.

Now to the prize:

From top to left to right:
  • My Skin: Refreshing Toner
  • My Skin: Cooling Eye Roll-On
  • My Skin: Soft Cleaning Gel
  • My Skin: Intensively Caring Cream
  • My Skin: Tinted Moisturizer for light skin
As you can understand easily all the products belong to the My Skin line. I haven't tried any of these goodies so I'm soo excited to try now that I've time without school and all that stuff.

If you're curious about any of the products check this brochure. I'm sure it'll help you.

Thus I'll be writing my opinion on each one during the next days.
For now, I'm just thanking Essence for doing these give aways and picking me as a winner ;)

Hugo Boss - Hugo Red

Hi!

It's almost Christmas and this could be the perfect present if it were available now.


This is the only time where red means go and thank god it does.
One year later Jared Leto is the face of another Hugo Boss perfume. Let's not forget Hugo Man and Hugo Different.
If you follow me for some time you know I bought Hugo Different as a Christmas present for my dad but I kind of stole it for my vanity and my dad sometimes sprays it on himself. And my older brother, too. As I said a year ago, I know it's supposed to be for men but I really, deeply like the smell. It's not too strong. Now imagine my face when my friend retweeted this poster. Yes, automatic fangirling.

I've discovered that the bottle has some cool features but I'm leaving that for when they release the ad. If the perfume will be available around January I think - and hope - that we are going to see the commercial next month.

Who's excited??
I sure am!

Mia Rose - Broken Hearted

Hello!

I'm doing everything wrong and posting another music themed post when my last one is still fresh. I'm sorry about that but Mia Rose posted now a new cover and as usual I'm spreading her vibe.


This time she covered Karmin's Broken Hearted. It's funny to see her rapping for the first time. After all these years and she hadn't rapped for us...

Jennifer L. Armentrout - Opal

Heya!

Even though I usually write 8 posts between book-reviews this time I decided to break that rule, because the third book on the Luxen series - Opal - written by Jennifer L. Armentrout is so, so painful to think about that I honestly don't know how I'm going to survive until July.

"No one is like Daemon Black.

When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn't fooling around. Doubting him isn't something I'll do again, and now that we've made it through the rough patches, well... There's a lof of spontaneous combustion going on.

But even he can't protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love.

After everything, I'm no longer the same Katy. I'm different... And I'm not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I'm capable of. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won't turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever."


As you can still see by my list on the right this book was supposed to be released today but I don't know why it was just available soon and I'm not complaining at all.

Some Stuff #34
