Liebsta Award

Thanks to Mia for the Liebster Award nomination.

1. When did you start your blog?  I started this blog in January 2011 under a different name when I was 13. It changed to Designer Dutch Girl and then I changed it to PIETERNEL BAAK very recently. If you look through my archives you will see there's been an almost two year gap (I've apologised for this already I several occasions in several posts). I also stupidly only claimed my blog through bloglovin recently.

2. What is your favourite fragrance? The exact name has rubbed off but it is by Oilily. All their fragrances smell lovely and my first perfume when I was 8 was by them too.

3. What is your favourite make up brand? I dont swear by one make-up brand in particular but I love Bobbi Brown for foundation and Yves Saint Laurent for Mascara (I get it in brown and it doubles up as eyebrow tint).

4. Your favourite film? An education. I've never cried so much at a film. It's the most beautiful story and features Dominic Cooper. Need I say anymore.

5. Do you prefer Summer or Winter? I live in the north of Scotland where most of the year is Winter with a few summer days inbetween so definitely summer, because I don't get enough of it!

6. Do you prefer pastels or brights for your nails? I prefer leaving my nails bare or with a nude coating (so pastels I guess). I get bored of bright colours quickly.

7. Do you have any piercings? Only one in each ear although I love the idea of have a load of piercings in one ear.

8. What is your favourite high street fashion shop? ZARA 100%

9. If you could sum yourself up in 3 words, what would they be? Honestly no idea.

10. Do you prefer a red, nude or pink lip? Nude definitely. My lips are already quite pink and I always forget to top up colour on my lips.

11. What's your favourite way to remove your makeup? I use a L'Occitane cleansing foam - It removes make-up, cleanses and isn't harsh on my skin.
