In Romania, we eat at Christmas: sarmale ( it's cabbage rolls tufted with meat and rice), beef salad and for dessert: cozonac - wich is between sweet bread and babka 😅
Hello, Martina! My favorite food this time of year is my mom’s sweet potato casserole. We have it at Thanksgiving and Christmas and I absolutely love it❤. I am an only child, divorced without human children, I have a poodle named Trixie, so the holidays are spent with my dad, my mom, Trixie, and myself. We are a small, close, and loving family of three, I mean four,,lol!❤ Merry Christmas 🎄 Sent with love 🙏🏻💕💕💕
Ty Marina! Beautiful look and great hearing about Xmas in Australia! 🌲🌲🌲🎅🎅I can't imagine a a warm Christmas ( I live in Chicago) !Have a wonderful Xmas! Good health in the New Year!!
I just absolutely love a red lip on you! I am so glad you used Ribbon. The idea of it being warm, beach weather bbq-ing prawns for Christmas fascinates me 🤣, it just sounds so unnatural. My brain would just spit 404 error continuously and I would need to be rebooted haha. The pony story, sweet and hilarious at the same time. That would 100% have been me too, I would not have gotten it until someone spelled it out for me 🤣. I can't even remember the last time I wore makeup for NYE, sweatpants and chill followed by bedtime as soon as midnight hits....that is my life now. I hope you and all your loved ones have a healthy time ahead!!! 💖💚💖
I’m so glad you like the brush! It was fun to hear about your Christmas. I hate the cold and wish it was summer here lol. In my family we eat Greek food at every holiday 😋
Thank you so much Martina, your look is so gorgeous! My family comes from Holland originally so Apple flapped was my favourite. Sliced apples dipped in batter and deep fried with icing sugar. So delicious!
Martina, happy holidays! So crazy you were talking about your favorite Xmas gift being a pony…I was 13 years old when my dad and stepmom bought me my first hunter/jumper horse, my beautiful, thoroughbred mare, named her Tyra actually after Tyra Banks, the model (she had the MOST beautiful head and eyes, and at 13, she reminded me of Tyra Banks 😂), anyway, that was the most special gift for Xmas I ever received, never have I seen my dad tear up the way he did being able to gift his daughter such a beautiful horse….anyway, brought me almost tears hearing your story and thinking about mine. Merry Christmas and Happy New year🎉❤🎉
I always wondered what it's like to have a sunny summer christmas, as I live in the UK and it's absolutely freezing, cold and dark from 4pm....Nice to hear you are a fellow Harry Potter fan. I love HP and grew up with the series so would go to the day one book and movie releases. It never gets old and the movies are very re-watchable
What a beautiful look! I love the collaborations you do with Mariam! It was super interesting hearing about Australian Christmas! My favorite thing to eat around the holidays is Candy Cane Hershey’s Kisses.
Lisa Eldridge has all my favorites!!!! Skin tint and lips!!! Simone and ON lip liner 🤍🤍🤍And her cleanser is divine!!! I need some of her eyeshadows!!! Love the kitten lash mascara
Sorry just got to this, had a Christmas day with my sisters and nieces and nephews. Just a fabulous video, I love favourites. I kind of did that today as I usually pretty much use Mac all the time but I was at mums place and she has lots and lots of make up. Any way I used a Napoleon and Clarins fluid mixed together, a Rimmel concealer, Elizabeth Arden palette ( which is like 10 years old ) but is still great - smells fine and doesn't irritate my eyes. I had my Mac lipstick and Clarins mascara. And I used a old Elizabeth Arden bronzer and blush . Which r still fine and the blush they have stopped making but it is my favourite blush. Sugar plum - just a beautiful 🤩🤩🤩 colour. PS beautiful make up ❤❤
For Christmas we always eat turkey, ground meat stuffing, baked sweet potatoes, rice and potato salad. For dessert my mom bakes an apple cake, Greek powder cookies, and we have Peruvian panettone. We live in Chicago so it’s usually cold here. I totally understand you when it comes to your health. I have a gallstone so I have to watch what I eat. It has not been easy at all. That’s my wish too..to be healthy and for my family to be healthy. Merry Christmas to you Martina! 🎄Blessings to you
I just love that red lip omg I can see me having to do a LE order for myself in the new year 😊 fav food at this time of year is Xmas pudding with custard, and yes I hate pavlova as well and yep I am still Australian. I know what you mean about the lovely warm weather and then dang overnight the humidity hits summer is in full swing and then the heat sucks. Have a wonderful jolly holiday, I am fortunate I don't go back to work until the 6th January as I work as a jewellery valuer so most of the trade except for the retailers close so I take the opportunity to switch off for just over a week after the literal crazy month b4 Xmas. Woohoo one day left and I get to check out of crazy town
Haven’t finished yet, but I purchased the Barely Basic palette using your link and code on November 12th, and it’s not here in Cleveland yet (December 23rd), but I can’t wait for it to arrive! Also, I love that two of my favorites are doing another collab. I’m always so happy when each of you upload, and find myself going through old videos for inspo, as well. Wishing you both very Happy Holidays full of peace, joy, and perfect makeup. 💄 Mwah-mwah and ho-ho-ho to you both!!! 🎄🎉
I finally bought the Refy eye balm. I also purchased the Dieux reusable eye masks. I’m gonna refrigerate both and apply before my eye looks. I think it will de-puff and intensify penetration of eye balm.
Such a good look and fantastic list of products, since we’ve been married ( 13 years now ) we go to my in-laws Christmas Eve and they make homemade spagetti from scratch - I mean make fresh spaghetti pasta noodles and my father in law freezes sausage scraps throughout the year and makes fresh spaghetti meat sauce/gravey every year and it’s delicious and i look forward to it every year then we come home and watch our favorite Christmas movies, on Christmas Day we go to my mom’s house and have brunch - sausage egg and cheese baked casserole - with fresh fruit
Stopping sugar and going low carb has vastly improved my health I highly recommend It!!! Luv ya Happy holidays Dressing is only had at Thanksgiving and or Christmas for me lol
I am in Australia and even though for the other eleven months of the year, I can't stand sultanas and dried fruit - that all goes out the window in December when I eat fruit mince pies daily!! 😃
🎄☃️🎉🎈🎊🍾🥂 Happy Holiday!!! May 2025 be abundant in health, joy, happiness, fulfillment, and many many more for you, and your family! Same to me and everyone else including our little” brothers”🎄☃️🎊🎈🎉🍾🥂🎄woooohooo!!!
Martina! What is disgustingly hot? How hot is it there, is it humid as well? Just curious :) I'm in So Ca yet in a valley, basically a desert and we get very hot too! Just wondering if it's hotter there
Not Martina but I live in the same city - it has been about 30 degrees (86 F) this week but the weather report predicts up to 35 degrees (95 F) next week. December is the start of summer. Brisbane is humid and can get very wet with the summer storms and further north is tropical with the risk of cyclones which tend to hit in January. I’m guessing Brisbane though is similar to California or Florida from memory when I travelled (albeit I wore a jumper in Disneyland in summer nights which I was not expecting how quickly it cooled at night compared to here and even Santa Monica was not as hot as I anticipated).
@@Amber86queenbee interesting! Yes, I'm in Southern CA and it gets in the high 90's low 100's in the summer here too. Miserable! I agree! Hope you enjoyed Dland!

We always have Prime Rib for Christmas dinner. Sometimes we have crab legs with it. We typically have twice baked potatoes

You are so beautiful ❤ and your tutorials are amazing 👏🏻
I am looking forward to this collaboration ❤ I reckon I already have guessed your favourites.
In Kentucky (my father was from Italy) we have a northern Italian style lasagna (less tomato sauce but more bechamel) and panettone. I love your look!
Such a good look and fantastic list of products, since we’ve been married ( 13 years now ) we go to my in-laws Christmas Eve and they make homemade spagetti from scratch - I mean make fresh spaghetti pasta noodles and my father in law freezes sausage scraps throughout the year and makes fresh spaghetti meat sauce/gravey every year and it’s delicious and i look forward to it every year then we come home and watch our favorite Christmas movies, on Christmas Day we go to my mom’s house and have brunch - sausage egg and cheese baked casserole - with fresh fruit

Dressing is only had at Thanksgiving and or Christmas for me lol
You look so good with your red lips. Thanks for your video and Merry Christmas.
Love the look 😍 You’re gorgeous. Happy holidays 💜 Merry Christmas from Denmark 🇩🇰

Is it sad that I knew some of these traditions through watching Bluey? 😂 (as a millennial mom of dogs/cats not humans).
