Project Samples



Hi everyone and welcome back to my blog! Sorry I've been MIA but sometimes we are hit with a lil "writer's block" and we have to do our best to get back on our feet. So we are now in December, an awesome time of the year and please remember that the most important thing this time is to share our time and love with our family and friends.

With that being said, this time I have to share something kind of new to me. A couple days ago I picked up a box of goodies from e.l.f. and I was really struggling to put my stuff away. It was not much, mainly backups of their HD powder, poreless primer, setting spray, and not too much make-up things. While doing this, I noticed that I have a little drawer full of samples, which eventhough they are not supposed to take a lot of room, as you can see, they are a hot mess and they are taking the much needed space that I was looking for. So, I decided to do something about it.

As some of you might know, there is something around Youtube and the beauty community called "Project 10 Pan" that is basically choosing 10 products from your collection that you either hit pan or are about to hit pan and decide to use it up before using something else.  In my particular case, I decided to use up my samples, so I called it "Project Samples". I have received this whole bunch of samples from my monthly suscription to My Petite Box and also from purchases that I have done from Sephora. Unfortunately, most of the times those little packet samples get lost, tossed around, and them BAM!! A drawer full of small stuff.

I am not saying that "by the end of January 2015 I'll be done with all of my samples" but I will make my best effort to use as much of them as I can. With that being said, I will show you pictures of the samples that I have to use up.

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!

Empties! What I've used up

Hey guys, welcome back to my blog. Happy belated Holidays and I hope 2016 will bring the best for all of us.  Once again, I'd like to share my empties with you and give you a little feedback on the products I used up since my last empties post. So let's begin, shall we? To start of, as always, 2 Bath & Body Works Gentle Foaming Hand Soap in Twilight Woods and Eucalyptus Mint .  I've purchased new hand soaps, and I need to go and buy some more, but these are staples in my bathrooms. Not only do they smell so good but they won't leave your hands feeling dry.  Biotherm's Lait Corporel which is an anti-drying body milk. This one is a deluxe sample size that I received ages ago in My Petite Box. I liked it, it had a nice citrusy scent and was moisturizing enough but I will not buy a full size since I have lots of hand/body lotions stashed and I will be pulling them out, little by little, to either use at home or at work. L'Occitane C...

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...
