Hello everyone!! So I did it again.... I didn't keep my word of making a post EVERY week... I m so sorry guys but I had been busy again and between life and my channel that takes a lot of my time... Let me make a brief review of my latest videos that went live at my channel and I also have the swatches from the KB shimmer winter/ holiday 2015 collection ready for you, I finally got one of those nail wheels ( I think they are called?) and swatched the winter colors there, they are beautiful colors and I will do the same for the colors from the fall collection that I got as well. So the first video I wanted to let you know about is my " KB shimmer winter/ holiday collection video ( Posted on Nov 16th) which you can check out right  HERE   And here are the swatches I made: ( First picture was taken without flash and 2nd picture was taken WITH flash) Colors from left to right are: * Fleece Navidad : ( You can hardly see it on the pic, the camera makes that colo...

Happy Friday everyone!! :) So I am here with another post and even though I was supposed to type it over the week so it would be ready and schedule for today ( Friday) I was pretty busy during the week ( as usual) and here I m, writing this post last minute.. AGAIN...lol Anyways, let's make a brief review about this week's videos posts in my channel :) This past Monday, my "Smokey eyes palette by Hard Candy" video went up, you can check it out  HERE   I m loving this palette, along with the " Natural eyes " one by Hard Candy as well ( you can check out its review HERE As you know I included both palettes into my  October faves 2015 video because they are pigmented, easy to apply, you can create great looks with them and they are affordable!! The other video that went live this week ( or I should say today) was my First impressions/demo on the new " Super sizer mascara by Covergirl ", you can check out that video right  HERE    I got...

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...

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. Personally, I like mixing up drugstore make up and some high end make up as well because both have their pros and cons and in both case you can find great products and well.... not so great products, if you know what I mean! he he So anyways, here is the list of the products that I mentioned on my video: * Revlon colorburst lip butter ( Wild watermelon) *  Milani statement lipstick ( Flamingo pose) ( Find the amazon link on my store page to purchase it!) * Maybelline Instant age rewind eraser dark circles...

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...
