Panama Makeup Pro 2015 Experience

Hi everyone! As I mentioned before, today I want to share with you what was the best birthday present that I received this year. My husband and my daughter gave me the ticket so I could attend the second version of the "Panama Makeup Pro" class and fair. Last year, 2014, it was the very next day from my birthday but I was not able to attend and this year it took place on September 5th, at the Riu Plaza Panamá hotel.

What is Panama Makeup Pro? Is sort of a master class with several renowned makeup artists, each taking care of a group of about 15-20 people, answering questions, and providing makeup techniques so you can learn how to get an almost professional look. Not only that but there is a mini-fair with several companies selling their products and giving you offers. The best thing, at the end there was a raffle for a large amount of prizes!

I really enjoyed my afternoon at the event. I was with the Kryolan group and learned that this brand, that is very overlooked is actually really good. I think that, since they started out as a stage makeup brand we tend to forget that most of this makeup, applied correctly, can be for everyday use. Not only that, but they also have makeup classes and a new location, with a bigger store and easier access than they did before. I want to try their foundation, I was amazed on how much coverage with a teeny tiny drop they, the makeup artists, were able to provide the model with. I am looking to buy 2 higher end foundations later on but I need to use up at least 2 or 3 of the ones I currently have.

All of the attendees were able to get a swag baggie, with products from Biotherm, Smashbox, Essence, Revlon, Almay, and several magazines as well as coupons for discounts from some of the sponsors.

I will share some of the pics I was able to get from that day:

And now, some of the things from the swag baggie and my raffle prize from Kryolan:

Also, before I forget, I received a $15.00 giftcard from Sol Sexy Salon, in Costa del Este. I went there to have my brows done and take advantage of it. The salon is really pretty, neat, everything so crisp clean and the attention, fully pleased.

So that will be all for now, thank you so much for stopping by and see you on my next post!

Quick Review: Tatcha Pure One-Step Camellia Cleansing Oil

Hi everyone! I have a quick post on a product that I recently purchased, tried and enjoyed a lot. It is the Tatcha Pure One-Step Camellia Cleansing Oil. I bought the 0.8 oz. bottle back in September ($12.00 the travel size and $48.00 for 5.1 oz) and about a week after I received it I used and I did not like it, at all but this thing has instructions and a little learning curve. But let me tell you about it: Tatcha is a relatively new to Sephora, it is a luxury brand, kind of pricey, and its founder, while traveling in Japan, met with a Geisha who share their ancient beauty secrets, which were improved with a little help of science and they have very good reviews, on almost every single one of their products. As for the cleansing oil, this is what Sephora's webpage says: "This beautiful blend of botanical oils thoroughly cleanses the skin without stripping it of its natural moisture—an essential first step for any skincare ritual. Formulated without...

Por qué me ausenté

Ha pasado demasiado tiempo desde la última publicación que hice, como 3 años si no me equivoco. Básicamente, life got in the way, y ya no contaba con el tiempo para hacerlo. Además, no tenía el ánimo ni las ganas. Why you may ask? Porque estoy cansada de todo. Cansada de estar esforzándome e intentarlo, tomar fotos, editar, publicar y no ver nada. Cansada de que otra gente sin intentarlo y sin trabajar logran lo que yo tanto quiero y un millón de cosas y quejas más. Y, aunque estoy a un paso de acogerme al "cancel culture" y borrarme de las redes sociales, que me hacen trabajar más que mi propio 8-5 job, no lo haré. Respiraré, me tomaré mi tiempo y veremos qué pasa. Rendirse no es una opción, en nada en la vida, le digo a mi hija. Y quién sería yo como ejemplo si no predico lo que digo. That means que tomaré aire, respiraré, and I'll try harder. Mantendré mi lealtad conmigo misma, mis ideas y principios, haré lo posible por no sentirme menos al no lograr lo ...

Christmas Beauty Haul

Hi everyone and welcome back to my blog. This time I'd like to share my Christmas beauty haul. I know it is a little late but hey, better late than never. So let's get started: First stop was a new brand for me that is all over Youtube: Colour Pop Cosmetics . This brand is quite new and they have so far, eye shadows and lipsticks (or lippie stix) and lip liners. Every individual item, whether it is an eye shadow or a lippie stix is only $5.00 and once you hit the $30.00 mark, you get free shipping withing the USA. Believe me, reaching the $30.00 is quite easy. This is what my package looked like before I decided to bust it open. It came with one of the Christmas sets that I ordered and an additional lippie stix. Another thing to keep in mind when making your first order is that, when you subscribe you can get $5.00 off that very first purchase so more reason to buy. Let me show you what I got: This was one of the Holiday Collection...
