Our favourite time of the year is finally here! It is time to pull out those warm, oversized clothes, drink hot chocolate, sleep a little longer and of course enjoy the holidays and gifts. If only this season wasn’t so cruel on our hair and skin winters would have been so close to our expectations.
Here’s a list of thoughts every girl has during winter and how far it is from reality.
- Hair situation
- Reality
- Smooth and flawless skin
- Reality
- DIY holiday nail art
- Reality
- Getting in the mood
- Reality
- Hair colouring
- Reality
Hair situation
Expectations
You wouldn’t have to wash hair that often and yet it will look absolutely stunning during a hair flip.
Reality
You’re constantly taming flyaway and static from your hair.
Smooth and flawless skin
Expectations
Effects of sun will be softer + less oil = No acne and flawless skin!
Reality
Skin is chapped, irritated and dry even after using a tub of moisturiser.
DIY holiday nail art
Expectations
Spend hours watching YouTube tutorials to get the perfect candy cane DIY nail art.
Reality
End up with a nail art that’s nowhere close to candy or cane or anything holiday related for that matter.
Getting in the mood
Expectations
Think of leaning in for a kiss in this romantic weather.
Reality
Remember you have chapped lips so you lean on for a lip balm instead.
Hair colouring
Expectations
Try a new winter hair colour everyone’s been talking about.
Reality
Fails miserably and spend the holiday season crying indoors.
