Leslie' s Parenting, reviews , nutrition and more Blog

Holly cow.... I can't believe it's been over a year since my last update on this Blog.. If you follow me on You Tube you know I took a break from making videos between April this year ( When I met up with my family for the cruise) and until around early October or so... It was a mix of things I would say; lack of motivation, laziness, personal stuff, etc, oh the move to FL was STRESSING to say the least... lol I don't think I would ever move again ha ha,it was worth it in the end, SO worth it! but it was very stressful as well and I am glad it 's over :):) When I started my YT channel, I used to update this Blog 3 or at least twice a week and since I m tired of making promises I can't keep.... I have decided to make ONE post per week ONLY... The reason why is pretty simple guys... I don't have much time to post 3 times a week, between You Tube, work and life it s a bit too much at times and when I have free time I don 't feel like having to worry about upda...

Hola everyone!!!!! :):):) Here I am with another Blog post ( as promised, can t believe I managed to be organized again this week! Yayyy) :) The reason why I am making this post today ( as well as uploading a new video) instead of tomorrow it is because I will be heading to the Big Apple tomorrow!!!! Yayyyy, I have some paper work to do which kinda sucks but I will try to enjoy myself there as much as I can :) I gotta back in like a month to pick up the paperwork I m dropping now so yeah, I guess I will take a look at the bright side of the situation which is that NYC is one of my most favorite cities in the world, I will hopefully do some shopping ( I will make a haul video for u guys of course) and I will try to "Vlog" for the first time...lol, I gotta admit I am feeling a bit nervous about doing that because I don 't wanna look stupid talking to a camera while walking around and stuff...lol hopefully I have some guts and go ahead and do it so you can somehow check out ...

Hello everyone!!! It feels like I haven 't made a post here in a while and the last one was on Monday... I have been very busy again this week with school, doing some pretty good job hunt ( I m trying to get a job on the veterinary field since I m studying to be a vet assistant so wish me luck guys!!) Anyways, enough rambling he he Let's get into my last video s details :) My latest video ( It went up on Fri) is my " July 's beauty favorites", it s the first time I make a favorites video and I really liked it :), I hope to make an August's faves vid as well and I hope to be able to do some more shopping this month since I wasn't really able to shop much last month, that's why the products I showed you guys are not new releases... The products mentioned on my video are: * Kiehl's Clearly corrective dark spot solution ( Available on my amazon store page) * Lush lip scrub ( Mint julips) ( I found a great alternative for almost the same pr...

Hello everyone!!! Hope you all had an amazing weekend and hope you are not having a case of the Mondays today...lol I wanted to let you know that my " I love drugstore make up TAG" video is now live! :):) I know many of you ( just like me) LOVE affordable, decent quality make up so I wanted to make this tag for you guys! There's some good quality make up that you can find at the drugstore and these products mentioned on my last video are some of my favorites.

Hello there ladies!! So here I am, making an another post on my Blog and it s about the cruelty free cosmetics brand ARBONNE :) A friend of mine works for them and she was nice enough to send me a few free samples for me to try and review on my channel so I am very thankful for that. The products she sent me samples from were: * Make up primer * RE9 Advance anti aging products * Smoothing facial cleanser * Regenerating toner * Intensive renewal serum * Corrective eye cream * Restorative day cream ( SPF 20) * Extra moisture restorative day cream ( SPF 20) * Night repair cream ( SPF 20) Hair products Pure vibrance * Lustre fortifying shampoo * Fortifying cream conditioner * Colorblast hair serum Here s the link for the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1PozlXEPpY I am very excited to try them out because all the RE9 products are anti aging creams and since I turned 31 last June, I gotta really start taking care of my skin ( I know I should have started around 25 but I s...

Hello everyone!! One of my last videos was the  " First impressions" video on the new Revlon Bold lacquer by Grow Luscious. Check it out to learn more and see the " first impressions" results I got. Like I said on the video, I think it s a pretty good mascara but I wasn't impressed when it comes to the length that it gives to my lashes, I mean, volume wise was pretty good , but when it comes to make my eye lashes longer, there are other mascaras I prefer ( such as " They are real" by Benefit cosmetics) So check out my video and feel to leave me comments there or here, or on my Facebook page and let me know how you liked it, if there are better mascaras in your opinion, etc. We gotta keep in mind, this is a " drugstore" type of mascara, meaning it s much more affordable than other high end brands and you can find it in several stores so, maybe it s good for the price, but still, I couldn't give it 5 stars :( Here is the link for my...
