Christmas DIY

Hi guys, Christmas is about to come, and I've prepared a thing you can make yourself to give to someone special ♫, or just to keep it at home and decorate the house with it.
It's a mini Christmas tree, the steps to make it are really simple and I love how it looks, it's so cute 

The things we need:

A gorgeous pine cone (with a nice one we're done, when we'll end it's gonna look gorgeous ^^)
Cotton balls/ cotton
Scissors
 A mini pot
Green spray or green paint
White paint
A little brush and a bigger one if we don't have the spray
Glitter (optional)
A beautiful ribbon
Super glue

Now we have it all let's start choosing a pine cone and cleaning it a little with a paper napkin. Cleaning the pine cone is important to paint it better.




Now we have our pine cone ready it's time to paint it! If we have a spray to do it be sure not to spray it really close 'cause is not going to look nice... I painted my pine cone with green emerald tempera mixed with a bit of white.



Now we've painted all the pine cone we're going to add a bit of detail painting with white the centres of every "scale" of our pine cone, don't know if you're understanding me but with the image below it's gonna be easier to. 


The most important thing that has to have a Christmas tree, the star! To make mine I've drawn a little star on a cardboard and cut it out. To make it more brighter I've painted the star with a yellow coloured pencil. And I've stuck the star with super glue.



After making the last details to our tree we have to put some pieces of paper on the bottom of the pot to make like a base and then we put the cotton balls. 




When we have the cotton inside the pot we put the completed tree. The last thing we have to do is spread some glitter on it. I couldn't find normal glitter and I've spread some glittered eyeshadow. 

 The last step is decorate the mini pot. I cut this gold ribbon and I've fix it with a double-face tape but you can do it with normal transparent tape, in fact it's better.


Sorry for my messy nail

And that's all. Can you see? Is really easy to do and, for me at least, it looks really cute. I hope you like this post and have a nice Christmas!
Bye ♥

NEXA Lite

Hey ladies, It's been a while since I posted my last review of a beauty product, so today I'm here to give you my opinion of an alternative to the expensive (I think so) Clarisonic, or mechanical brushes.

Last month I ordered this "beauty gadjet" 'cause in some one of my monthly favourites I showed you the Garnier exfo-brush, but the results of it only lasted for 1 or 2 days, so I thought I had to find a face brush, something like Clarisonic or a manual one. 

And some months ago I heard 'bout the NEXA, and I decided to search on the website to buy it. For my surprise they just released a new model that was exclusively for face, and it was discounted! And how not, I bought it here

November Favourites*

Hello sweeties! I know I'm not posting as much as I did this summer, but I started my classes and now I'm having lots of exams, so forgive me for leaving my blog lately 


Well, as I said, I've been really busy, and I cannot go shopping or anything like that this month, so I have got nearly nothing for the favourites of this month, so I'll show you the only cool thing I did this past month. I went to a manga fair in Barcelona ^^

I know some people thinks that manga and anime are weird things, but for me is part of my childhood and well, part of my life 'cause I still really like it. If you're judging something you don't know you should try it before (not aplicable to drugs and this kind of things, you know), maybe it will surprise you in a nice way. 

Weeeell, well, well, coming back to the subject: Me and my friends have been waiting for this event all the entire summer, and we had some problems to go 'cause we paid for a bus for Saturday 1st, and they cancelled this one and passed it to Sunday, fortunately, we could go. And it was amazing :3







As you can see I went cosplayed. Yes, I have no shame, I know. In fact, I really like being dressed up, this time I went as Asuna from Sword Art Online a really popular anime that came out in 2012, I really liked it but when came out the third season I tink they completely broke the meaning of the story... Well my character is from the 2nd season.

I couldn't find the ears and maybe the cosplay is not perfect, but my mom and me worked hard to do it so, I'm quite proud of it ^^





Well, all this things from the photos on top are stamps, yep, stamps for letters. I think in Japan do quite interesting things from anything. I took pics from One Piece mostly 'cause is my favourite anime of all time :3

A gomu-minion ^^
This year were having lots of things from new Pokemon X and Y, and there was another place all of Pokemon where you could play to the new games and other stuff, but we stayed in this part of the fair that's mostly for shopping and has some expositions like this one below, and there was another one of japanese music bands.




Well I'm sorry if that's not what you expected of a favourites but is my favourite of the month so... Enjoy it anyways!
Bye!
