Good afternoon! How’s everything going? Today’s the 20th, which means… it’s time for Blogmas day 20! Only 4 days left until Christmas Eve, and I can’t believe how fast December is passing by. But hey, today it’s time to talk about my Christmas outfit… and I think I have adapted it quite well to the circumstances we are experiencing!

Hi everyone! Today is December 18th, and it’s a very special day for me because it’s the anniversary of this blog and the anniversary of the very first post I wrote. This means… it’s been 4 years of Flaw Decay! I find it crazy that this blog started as a class project and ended up being a very important part of my life. Thanks to it, I’ve met incredible and talented people and I’ve been able to express myself and one of my great passions: makeup. I’ve worked really hard in the last few years to bring quality content that I believe in, with honest reviews, and to show you the best cruelty-free products.

Hi guys! I hope you’re all doing well. Lately I’ve been spending most of my days in front of the computer: studying programming, writing my final degree project, the posts… you get the idea. It’s pretty stressful, even if I really enjoy it. And you know what? The way Christmas makes us forget stress and worries, even if just for a moment, is one of the many reasons why I love it. Today I will talk about some of them, and also about the parts that I don’t like!

Hi guys! For today’s Blogmas, the topic is one of my favorites: food! I genuinely can’t get enough of it during this season, and I love many traditional and modern approaches to Christmas cooking. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to prepare a festive recipe. I’ve been working on my final degree project and programming course, so I’ve kept the cooking very low-key and simple for the most part. But I did find some really delicious Christmas food… keep reading to find out about that!

Hi guys! And welcome to the 15th day of Blogmas. Today’s post is about my city, Barcelona, and it’s pretty lights. I love walking around town with my dog, Lana, while listening to music and looking at them as the sun is setting. This year I haven’t had the chance to do it as much as I would normally, but it still warms my heart like a good cup of hot chocolate!
Keep scrolling to see the pictures I’ve taken so far of Las Ramblas, Plaça Catalunya, and Gran Via ↓

Hi guys! How’s it going? Today’s Blogmas post is all about travel. Traveling is one of my favorite things in the entire world, and even though lockdown has made it impossible for us to travel like we used to (in my some areas of my country we can barely move across cities for security reasons), I’ve been reminiscing a lot about the cities I’ve been lucky enough to visit in the past. Every year since I was 14 years old, my parents would take me and my brother to a different city in early December. We’ve visited local places as well as big cities like London, Paris, Rome, Berlin, Prague and Oporto! Last year, during my stay in the UK, I also visited Edinburgh, Manchester and London (for the second time) with one of my best friends during the wintertime.

Hi guys! How was your week? In today’s 13th Blogmas (how quickly time passes!) we are going to talk about a topic that I’ve always liked, but it wasn’t until recently that I started to take seriously: essential oils. I already have two Christmas favorites from the Young Living brand.

Hi guys! And welcome to my 11th post of Blogmas. To some of you, this title might sound a bit bizarre. It’s a bit personal, actually, and definitely up for interpretation. But for me it has a more specific meaning: nearlycrispi recently proposed a challenge with three prizes to redo one of our older looks and see how we’d do. I liked the idea very much; aside from the fact that she was the hosting the giveaway (and yesterday I found out I won one of the prizes!), I think it’s a good way to see how far we’ve come and to test ourselves. I re-did an eyelook from 2018, one of my favorites to date back then. Keep reading to see the change!

Hi guys! It’s the tenth day of Blogmas and it’s time to talk about one of our favorite topics around here: makeup! I’ll be guiding you through a new makeup look that I’ve created for this post and I’ll be showing you old ones so you get some inspo from them as well. For this year’s makeup look, I wanted to do a different and creative, glittery look. As you’ll see in past years’ makeup, I use gold, green and red a lot during this season, and this time it was no exception.

Hi guys and welcome to the 9th day of Blogmas! If you’re anything like me, you’re probably looking for nail and makeup ideas for Christmas already. I follow so many talented artists on Instagram, including nail artists and specialists, so I’ve been saving inspiration for the day I got my nails done with one of my closest friends, who is so skilled as well.
