Sorry about that .....

I know I know , I have been gone almost a year ! After I said I would be more consistent with my post so I apologize for that , I guess "life " just got in the way lol ... recently we have seen all these natural disasters happening all around the world and it's sad and scary . My prayers are with anyone who are going through hard times right now . Mexico got a huge earthquake a couple of days ago and it left many cities and towns in a rubble and in need of help , being Mexican I was so worried for my family that are in my beautiful homeland . It's so sad seeing pictures and watching videos of how my beautiful country got destroyed .

FAVORITE CONCEALERS

I'm sorry that i have not posted in a week , it was midterm week and i had to study because like always i leave everything at the last minute lol But i'm excited about this post , because it is one of my favorite parts of makeup!!! I AM A CONCEALER J U N K I E !!!!!!!!    . I am always looking for new concealers to try out, whether they are just coming out or have been out for a while . On my lazy days or in a rush days i use concealers as a foundation and it leaves a natural finish. I do like the NARS concealer and it's one of my holy grails BUT it is a bit more pricier and i'm currently not reaching for it lately. So first on the line is Sephora's collection Bright future gel serum concealer and THIS IS MY HOLY GRAIL !!! LIKE #1 ON TOP OF MY LIST !!!! I have this is shade 12 - pecan pie &  shade 13 - caramel , it is hydrating and creamy it does not crease and it blends very easily, they offer plenty of shades and what i really like about this is that it br

Updated Brow tutorial

I have always been changing the way i do my eyebrows , and through out the years i think i found the way to do it for me. It looks more natural and i have been doing it for a couple of months now, I feel that doing the actual fill in with a pencil is so much easier and leaves a more natural finish then to just filling in with the dipbrow. I switch from the brow wiz and maybelline eyebrow pencil from time to time . I use to have really thin eyebrows so I had to grow them out . I get my brows threaded and wax maybe every 6 months and in between those months I trimmed them and pluck them on my own so I could keep the shape that took me so long to grow lol  I'll post the products I use below ABH DIPBROW - DARK BROWN ABH BROW WIZ - DARK BROWN ABH BROW BRUSH #12 MORPHE BRUSH #B23 - SPOOLIE BRUSH BH COSMETICS BRUSH # 128 SEPHORA GEL SERUM CONCEALER - SHADE 12 PECAN PIE BENEFIT GIMMIE BROW #3 RITE AID RENEWAL FLATBRUSH YOU COULD ALSO USE MAYBELLINE 'S DE

Blue Agave Restaurant

On Sunday my boyfriend took me out as a early anniversary date (it was on Monday our anniversary ) . To be honest I was not gonna blog about it because I did not really think that anyone would be interested in restaurants BUT this place is amazing that I have to write about it. I'm from New York ,living in Brooklyn there are many yummy places to go eat at , so sometimes it's hard to choose which spot exactly we want to eat at. We decided we wanted to go to bayridge,it's a neighborhood in Brooklyn. We wanted to check out the restaurants there and see what caught our eye. We came upon this place called the Blue Agave Resturant ,it is a hidden resturant on 3rd Ave and 72nd street    Entrance Entering we were greeted by a waiter who asked us if we would like to sit out back outside or stay inside in the front, we decided to sit out and it had such a nice home-ish garden feel. They had blue LED lights framed all over the fence. It was cozy ! Now for the good part , THE FOOD ! I

DIY - VANITY

Image
Im pretty sure that everyone that is into makeup, wants their own space where you could do your makeup and hair & store your makeup. For such a long time I have wanted a vanity and I always searched on what type of desks and mirrors I could use and also searched on DIY'S. I have found many beautiful ones. I think that making your own vanity is way more economic than to just order a vanity that is already made [ they are priced from $300 to $500 ]. So I recently went to Ikea in search for wall decor so I could place my nail polishes and "suprisingly" I  came out with a whole bunch of other things. My mom hates it when I do that, she always says me and my sisters are terrible shoppers because we buy the first thing we see lol. I found a chest of drawers that I really liked and it was also on sale. I didnt really want the big desk because i read reviews where alot of people said that it starts coming off with time.  [The name is Lote and it is still on sale ! http://

Summer Vacation

This summer I went on vacation to Mexico with my boyfriend and we had such an incredible time . It's truly such a beautiful place . I'm so proud of being Mexican and love finding out more about my heritage , my cousin offered to take us to places as well as other family members (thank you George and tshitshiki i love you guys !) . This time around we stayed in Mexico for two weeks when we first arrived we went to Mexico City I get amazed every time I go  This is the statue rather known as "el angel de la independecia " in the heart of Mexico City , lights come on in the night time . The roads make a circle around it.  This is inside the basilica de la virgen de Guadalupe. It's one of my favorite places to visit when I go , many people from around the world come to pray here  Through out the trip I went to the silver city which is located in Guerrero Mx ,the grutas (caves) , Cuatla, Oaxaca ,huahuapan, chinantla and of course my beautiful town named Ahuehuetitla. It
