Hello everybody, and welcome to '24 days of Zoella'
I'm kicking off the first video of 24, thats right!
right up until Christmas Eve, you are going to have a video on this channel every, single, day! So make sure you're subscribed
make sure you've pressed the little notification bell thats just down there next to the subscribe button
So that you're alerted.. Nala's like having a sneezing fit down there.. shh..so you're alerted every single day whenever there is a new video
Also worth mentioning, I'm also doing vlogmas, so I'll link my second channel below
Nala, now is not the time
so I'll also be leaving a link to my second channel in the description box
Make sure you go on over there because there will also be a video on that every single day up until Christmas Eve
oh, actually, no, there will be a video every single day from tomorrow until Christmas Day
because you film one day and then you upload it on the next day, that's how it works
Anyway, you might be thinking, why have you decided to do '24 days of Zoellla' again?
Are you effing crazy?
and the answer to that is yes, because it is a lot of work and I'm a perfectionist,
so I only wanna ever upload videos that I love and I think that you'll love
and when that means creating 24 different videos that are Christmas themed that's quite difficult
especially, when you've done '24 days of Zoella' the year before
and you cant really repeat the same videos, so I'm just gonna throw this out there..
enjoy this year because next year there will be nothing left for me to film
much like last year, after I've just said that like there's no videos, I can't repeat them, much like last year I'm doing a November favourites on day one
because I have been loving a lot of things
and I also didn't upload a video of my favourites last month or the month before because
well I don't know the months have been kind of slipped by, and also sometimes I find it quite difficult because
name that programme
Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint in the shade Bestie
which I also currently have on
which is a really pretty nude-y, mauve, I would say
these, go on very smoothly,
very smoothly,
very easy to apply,
but...
...oh Alfie's home...
...but what I love about them is they're matte, straight away
like immediately they turn matte which I love
they don't feel heavy, and they don't crack on your lips, and they wear really nice
and I think, the one thing I will say, makes this so different from any others I have tried
is that it feels very light to wear
and generally, a matte liquid lipstick, you're very aware it's there
So, yeah, you should definitely try these out
also some really amazing shades
Now, you may have noticed
I don't know if you did, that I look like I've sprung from the '80s
and that is because on a photoshoot I was on recently with my brother
I had to have my hair put in to the tightest ringlets you will ever see
and on day 1 of the shoot we all sort of laughed about it
like, "Oh look at your curly hair, oh my god that looks crazy!"
By the end of the first day I was like "Oh I'm kind of digging it"
By the second day of the shoot, I actually loved it
I loved having tight ringlet hair
So then I got home and I remembered that I did actually have something that created corkscrew curls
And it's this, it is the Lee Stafford corkscrew curler
I think it's about £19.99 and it does this to your hair
Obviously you can leave the hair on a bit longer if you want it to be a really tight curl
Hey, go on then
Or you can do it for a little bit of a shorter time and it gives you more kind of like wavy, beachy hair
Also most people who see it say "Oh my god that must take you ages!"
Honestly, it takes me the same amount of time to do this, as it does to curl my hair normally
because I'm taking smaller pieces
this gets very hot and you only have to hold the hair on for like 2-3 seconds
Literally you wrap it around and you unwrap it
and depending on how big or small you want the curls to be and how much hair you want to wrap around it
you really didn't take too much time at all
which is why I flippin' love it
And I've also been curling everyone else's hair with it and I think they really love it
Oh okay, so two more things I've been loving
Oh why is my bed wet?
The first being "The missing"
Now as you're watching this, I feel like there may only be one episode left
or the last episode has already aired
I don't know yet, because I'm filming this in the past
Oh god...
...I'm confusing myself...
...Basically, as it stands right now, episode five
...Oh my god, it's on tonight, oh my god...
...Oh it's not, it's on tomorrow, damn it
We're about to watch episode six
There are eight episodes in this series
I feel like I rave about BBC dramas on my "Favourites" videos quite a lot
And that is because they are so flippin' good
Down to the music, the actors and the storylines
They're just all so well done
I love pretty much all of them
"The missing" is absolutely no exception
If any of you have watched the first series,
The first and second series don't really correlate, as far as I'm aware right now
Because they're two different stories, so you can go back and watch the first series, or you can start watching
the second series
It's totally up to you
However the first series was amazing
Did I talk about the first series in a "Favourites" once?
...maybe...
So "The missing"
very loosely
is about a girl that went missing when she was young and then years and years later, she reappears
Is it her? What's going on? Is it correlated to another girl that's been missing?
They basically try to find out who abducted these girls
and it's just so gripping
and the storyline is so complex but so, like
amazing, like it's so detailed
and just so many twists and turns, and every episode I'm like,
I just wanna watch the next one
and I highly recommend you watching it
if you want something else to watch
oh another thing that I have been absolutely loving
and I feel I come very late to the party with this one
is Black Mirror
so I didn't see any of it before about
a month and a half ago, when
Poppy... No! Who told me to eatch Black Mirror?
I don't remember who told me to watch it, damn it
there are three series
and every episode is different, so it doesn't matter
in doesn't matter it which order you watch any of the episodes
from any of the series
and they're just so clever
they are written and created by Charlie Brooker
who I think is just THE
most intelligent genius man
because the episodes make you think
in a way that you didn't before.
if thatmakes any sense
they really mess with your mind
in a good way.
and they touch on quite a modern issues
and I think that's really cool
and a lot of it is like the future
oh my god, it's just... you just have to watch them
to know what I mean, but I have really enjoyed them
in fact, I still think asbout episodes I've watched weeks and weeks ago
that's how much of an impact they sort of.. kind of left me... in?
my favourite episode
is probably 'san junipero' or'white bear'
just because I think those were
really... like
san junipero was just incredible
that is for sure my favourite
white bear was like the most shoking one I watched
and
uhh the fast one of series 3 I also really loved
I don't remember what that one was called, but
yes, you have got to check it out if you haven't already
and I feel like that is everything that I wanna share with you
oh! one more thing: costa, christmas drinks
the flipping honey comb, oh my god
so Mark had a honeycomb latte
and I don't drink coffee so
latte was never gonna really be on my street
but he was like you need to try this latte
so I took a sip
and then it was all I could think about
so I was like, do you know what? I know it's only a syrup
so I'm gonna ask them if they can put it into a hot chocolate
which they can
and I like hot chocolate
I feel like I'm not even breathing, as I'm talking about this,
that's when you know these things are my favourites
honeycomb hot chocolate from Costa
it's just incredible
as is the chocolate orange one.
...oh my god...
you gotta just try 'em.
so good
so flipping good
