Makeup Bag for this Week


Hi everyone and welcome back. For today I have a brief, hopefully. This time I want to share with you guys what I brought in my makeup bag this week. Before I start I would like to apologize if the pictures are not the best quality, I was at work when this post came to my mind and I used my phone to take the pictures. Anyways, enough blabing and let's get started.



For eyeshadows I chose a Tarte palette that I bought last Christmas and was part of their Holiday sets. It has 20 eyeshadows that include both shimmer and matte finishes. I also brougth this little L'oreal HiP duo, in the color Adventurous, that I bought through and online store named MAKEUPLOVERSBYMA and she has drugstore products and very nice offers. Go follow her now on IG.



For the lips I chose these products:

1. Exceptional Lipstick, from Elizabeth Arden, in #71 Georgia Peach. It came in one of My Petite Boxes and I like the creamy formula, it is very opaque and gives a really nice color, besides, it does not settle into the fine lines of my lips.

2. L'oreal Colour Riche lipstick in #176, Dreamy Pink. I also bought it from MAKEUPLOVERSBYMA and it is a very light pink. The only thing that I am not too fond about it is the smell. L'oreal lipsticks have this funny smell, like old lady perfume. Thankfully it fades pretty fast.

3. Milani Color Statement Lipstick in #27, Dulce Caramelo. Love the watermelon scent. It is kind of a nudy brown lipstick with shimmer. No, it is not frosty. Some of the lipsticks of this line, Color Statement, can be found in Steven's and Titán for about $7.00.

4. NYX Butter Gloss in Eclair that I bought from my friend Nitzia. She owns Glitter Drops Store, and online store, and she sells both high end and drugstore makeup, at very nice prices. She is awesome and her products are the real deal, not copies with a brand name sticker on it as I have seen from other people. Go look for her on IG and follow her (it's an order!).

5. Essence XXL Longlasting Lipgloss and I don't have the name. Silly me, I removed the bar code sticker and the name was there. I really like this gloss formula, it is no heavy or uncomfortable on the lips and does not have any weird/funky scents and also it makes the lips look plumped and juicy.






And finally, to finish any look I use the Clarins Crayon Khol in Intense Black (this is a deluxe sample size from one of My Petite Boxes), the Physicians Formula Eye Booster eyeliner en either Deep Brown or Ultra Black (depending on the look that I end up doing for the day I will choose my liner), and finally my Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! 4-in-1 mascara (not pictured).

The rest of my makeup, the face portion and my brows, I do them at home and soon I will share with you guys the products that I use for that.

That will be all for now. Thank you for stopping by and I'll see you in my next post!

A Little Fashion Post

So I'm not fashion-y at all. I like what I like and sometimes that does not work/adjust to my body type which is like "hourglass-y but chubby" and I have to look for pieces that not only match or coordinate with one another but also that fit me well and does not make me look like a fool, like a 40 year trying to look half her age.  So, that being said, for a casual Friday, I chose a pair of kind of lose fit jeans from Estampa (got them for $12), an olive green tank top, olive green jacket from Berksha (bought it like 3 years ago) so they "match" and create a military-ish vibe, a regular black belt, and a pair of gold-nude loafers, so comfortable that I just can't put them down. Now some more detail pics so you can take a closer look and enjoy.  See ya next time!

Review: Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation

Hola a todos y bienvenidos.  Para el día de hoy les tengo una reseña o review de una base de maquillaje de la marca Revlon.  Se trata de la base Revlon Colorstay Whipped, la cual es una base en crema, bastante gruesa, que no se corre.  En Panamá se empezó a vender más o menos desde octubre-noviembre del 2013 y tenemos aproximadamente unas 5 tonalidades, a diferencia de otros mercados que tiene hasta 16 tonos y tiene un precio de más o menos $16.95 más impuestos. Según la página de  Revlon , Colorstay Whipped es un maquillaje de larga duración que ofrece un máximo rendimiento, tiene textura suave y su cobertura ayuda a unificar el tono del rostro y también ofrece una sensación ligera durante todo el día que no se corre ni se desvanece. Yo compré la mía en el mes de noviembre y la uso casi todos los días.  Puedo certificar que es una base de cobertura completa, da una apariencia mate y a pesar de que el clima en Panamá es caliente y húmedo, la...

Empties! February 2015

Hi everyone and welcome back! Today I will share my empties with you. As you can see, I have a lot so let's get started: Since my last empties post was quite some time ago, you will noticed that we have used up a lot of the foamy hand soap from Bath & Body Works. I keep repurchasing them because we like the different scents, because of the offers, and because they don't dry out the hands. My daughter's favorite is Twilight Woods and mine, Sweet Pea. Staying in the toiletries, I used up two more Bath & Body works products: a "Carried Away" body lotion that to be honest I felt was a little too liquidy not like other lotions that I have that are a little bit thicker and also I used up a 3oz. Sweet Pea body wash. I liked it because it lathers very nicely and leaves a nice smell and softness to the skin.  I used up a Victoria's Secret body mist from a set my husband bought me a couple years ago and I still have like 1 or 2 left at h...
