My Versatile Blog Awards



I was very happy when I learned I have received the Versatile Blog Award from G. Thank you so much! Although you seem very young (at least compared to the old lady aka me who's saying this :) ), you have such a great blog and it's an honour to be awarded by you.

Actually, this is not my first Versatile Blogger Award. I received the first one from MissL (another of my favourite bloggers), but I didn't notice it right away and it seemed embarrassing to do the post so much later. Sorry, MissL :(

But on to the award!

There are three basic rules to that award:
1. Thank and link back to the person who gave you the award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Send it along to 10 other bloggers.

My 7 facts:

1. I am a Chanel ( a post to come!) and MAC girl, although for many years I thought I was not.

2. I was called "an ogre" at high school because my hair was temporarily dyed green  (click the link and read more about it!). That was right before I shaved my head. The Sinead O'Connor look suited me, but I'm afraid I won't do it again. 

3. I am very much afraid of heights and weirdly, staircases too. But I don't mind flying at all.

4. During my uni years I used to weight 45 kg. I thought that was fat and tried desperately to get rid of my "extra weight" :)

5. One of my first jobs was as a nude model at an art college. It was really hard to stay motionless for 3 hours plus. At wintertime in very cold classroom. FYI, I wore swimsuit at all times.

6. I prefer a boyshort over a thong.

7. OK, back to normal stuff :)  I am a foodie. I love cooking and eating delicacies. I love to cook soups, salads and meat dishes, but not to bake or make cakes. Actually, I don't even eat cakes, I despise them. That's a family tradition :)

Now I'm in trouble! I don't know who to send this award along, as probably many of my favourites have received it already many times :S So, I am naming some of my favourites and if you have already done it or are too busy to go along with the game, don't feel like participating or so on,  just take this as a compliment, OK? 

Here we go:

Yours Truly,
Tolmu Rull 

For my lovely Estonian ladies: 

G andis mulle The Versatile Blogger auhinna:) Täh-täh!

Auhinna mõte on selles, et kui tunned tunnustuse üle rõõmu, siis avaldad seitse (põnevat) fakti iseenda kohta ja annad auhinna edasi kümnele inimesele. 

Minu seitse paljastust:

1) Ma ikkagi olen Chanel'i ja MAC'i tüdruk, kuigi ma ise arvasin, et ei ole.

2) Kooliajal kutsuti mind roheliste juuste pärast mõnda aega sookolliks. Sel ajal polnud Shrekist ja Fionast keegi veel kuulnudki.

3)  Ma kardan väga kõrgust ja veidral kombel ka treppe (eriti neid, mille astmete vahelt saab läbi vaadata!), aga mitte lennukiga lennata. Seda ma hoopis naudin!

4) Ülikooliajal kaalusin ma 45 kilo ja arvasin, et olen hirmus paks :)

5) Olen töötanud kunstikoolis aktimodellina. Üle kolme tunni ühes asendis püsida: ütleme nii, et see on tervistkahjustav töö! Päris alasti ma siiski polnud, ujumistrikoo jäi ikka selga.

6) Mulle ei meeldi eriti stringid, ma eelistan shortside lõikega allareid.

7) Ma olen foodie ehk söögisõltlane. Mulle meeldib süüa teha, eriti salateid, suppe ja liharoogi. Küpsetada ja kooke teha eriti ei meeldi, sest ise ma magusaid küpsetisi ei söö.

Kellele auhind edasi antud sai, on ülal kirjas :)

Siiralt teie,
Tolmu Rull

Top 10 Award -- my current favourites


I have been neglecting my own blog and reading other people's blogs for a few days, only to wake up and find that Miss L from eisaamitte  has tagged me with Top 10 Award! Thank you so much! And thank you also for letting me know in the comments, otherwise I might have missed it in this Christmas chaos!

The game goes like this: All you have to do is pick 10 beauty related products and name which one is your top pick in that category. You can change some categories, if you want. Here are mine:

Hand and body lotion: Avon Planet Spa Mediterranean Olive Oil Body Butter with Orange Flower. Honestly, Avon body butters are so much better than the infamous Body Shop ones! For hands I use separate hand creams and I like The Body Shop Almond hand cream best.

Eyeshadow: Sleek Makeup I-Divine Palette in Au Naturel. Right now I prefer this to Naked palette.
Top coat: China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat. I think it beats Seche :)

Powder: Grimas Colour Powder loose powder. I use compact powder only for touch-ups.

Nail polish brand: I'm going to like Alessandro more and more. Used to be China Glaze.

Body wash: The Body Shop ones, currently with Pink Pomegranate. They smell gorgeous, don't dry your skin out and last for a long time.

Blush: Nars Deep Throat. Gorgeous colour! One of the most versatile blushes I've ever used.

Lip balm: Joik Deeply Moisturizing Emu Oil Salve. Works for your cuticles too!

Facial moisturizer: Lumene Vitamin C+ range, especially Bright Skin Radiance Nectar.

Eye cream: Avon Anew Rejuvenate 24 Hour Eye Cream. Actually,, there are two creams in one pot, one for night time, another for day time. 

Now it's your turn! I tag:

Beautiful Inside And Outside
The Big Pink Bow
Beauty and Make Up Boudoir
Iluelu
I.R. Pale

And that's about it right now! I don't want to tag Estonian bloggers who have been tagged before and don't know right now who to tag from abroad. Maybe I can figure it out later!

Here are the Top 10 Award rules:
1. Thank the person who tagged you and link their blog.
2. Put the Top 10 award logo on your blog.
3. List your top 10 cosmetics/beauty/health.
4. Choose 10 bloggers to tag, link their blogs and let them know.


Yours Truly,
Tolmu Rull
