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!

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...
