SWEATER WEATHER TAG! FALL 2018

Wednesday, October 31, 2018

Hello, I am bringing it old school today, with the Sweater Weather Tag. Remember when this tag came around back in 2014? Haha.

I am a fall baby, I was born in October. Autumn is my favorite season not only because, of the weather, but because of the festivities, and the color of the leaves. 

"The Questions"

1. Favorite candle scent?
I have a white girl, trapped in my Mexican body. I LOVE Bath & Body Works candles. My favorite one is Pumpkin Pecan Waffles. 









2. Coffee, tea, or hot chocolate?
MMM... Hard question, I love me some PSL, but I love my warm chamomile tea and my chocolate Abuelita with bolillo. ALL OF THEM! I can't decide!





3. What's the best fall memory you have?
I have a few...
I am Mexican if you didn't know that already. We celebrate "Dia de Muertos" or "Day of the Dead" I always liked the meaning behind this  tradition. I remember since I was little helping my mom putting up la ofrenda or altar, to commemorate our loved ones that passed away. We would put a picture of them and their favorite food to eat, with candles to light their pathway, and a salt cross to keep away the bad spirits. But I also grew up here in the USA, and I remember putting up a costume, to go out and trick or treat with my cousins. I grew up celebrating both cultures and their traditions. I love having the best of both worlds! I also love going to pumpkin patches with my nieces and nephews! 









4. Which makeup trend, do you prefer: dark lips or winged liner?

DARK LIPS DUH!








5. Best Fragrance for fall?
Pumpkin Cupcake from Bath and Body Works. And Candy Apple also from Bath and Body Works. 









6. Favorite Thanksgiving food?
Everything! But I love the corn pudding my cousin Haydee makes every year! It's my favorite!





7. What is autumn weather where you live? 

I live in Houston, we have some crazy weather here! It rains, it gets cold, it gets humid. But we do get orange and golden leaves. 




8. Most worn sweater?

This one! Walmart $10












9. Must-have nail polish this fall?

I have a blog post all about this, check it out!




GO, GO, GO!




10. Football games or jumping in leaf piles?

JUMPING IN LEAF PILES! Even tho, my dad love Football, I'm just not a sports girl!





11. Skinny jeans or leggings!

Skinny Jeans, ALWAYS!



12. Combat boots or Uggs?

I have to say both. Yes, I said both!




13. Is pumpkin spice worth the hype? 

Yes! My inner white girl, says yes! I love me some PSL! But I mean it comes down to personal preference you know?






14. Favorite fall TV show?
It's not a TV show, but HOCUS POCUS!

Well, hope you enjoyed this post!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

FAVORITE FALL NAIL POLISH PICKS 2018

Tuesday, October 16, 2018

Hey! I am back! I feel like I have to say that every time I write a new post because I don't post that often. Well, today I am going to share with you my favorite nail polishes for fall. Let's begin!


  

When I think of fall I think of, leaves turning a bright and golden brown color, bright orange pumpkins, subtle blues, and berry colors.





1. KL polish in "Caramello"
buy here.




Caramello is as the name says a caramel color, it's the perfect "nude" color for fall. It's a mix between a mustard and pumpkin color. I love this color soo much!








2. O.P.I  in " Yank My Doodle" & " It's a Piazza Cake"
Buy here.





Yank My Doodle is a more toned down orange, If you want to wear orange but you don't want it to be too bright this one is perfect.
It's a Piazza Cake is a more bright orange, like a pumpkin color. It reminds me of pumpkin pie.

3. ORLY in "Classic Contours"




This is the perfect nude berry color. If you only like to wear nudes this one is the best for you.




4. O.P.I in " In The Cable Car-pool Lane" buy here.



This is my favorite berry color, because of its opacity and how quickly it dries. Some berry colors can be tricky because they are so liquid that they take several coats. 



5. KL Polish in " Cozy In There" 
buy here.




Perfect blue! I love this color! You need it!! 



So that was it! My favorite nail polishes for fall! I hope this was helpful and you enjoyed this post!


FYI: *Sally Beauty has all their nail polishes buy 1 get 1 free :) EXPIRES 10/17/18
*KL Polish: USE CODE: VIPBWQS FOR 10% Also follow Kl Polish on IG because every  Monday they do Happy Hour! when they have a new deal every Monday. PS: It only last 4 hours, so DON'T SLEEP ON IT! ;)

Latinxs & Chingonxs - JENZEANO DESIGNS

Monday, September 3, 2018


 A SOUTH TEXAS BASED LIFESTYLE BRAND



Hello! 
I'm still alive! I had big plans for the blog during all the month of July but "life happened" and then August flew by. And now I'm back in college. For a few months now, I've been trying to dedicate once a month a post to my fellows latinxs chingonxs (I included the "x" so it could be inclusive to all my latin women and men). These posts will be dedicated to shops, people, entrepreneurs etc. I will share my favorite shops and latin people with you. Along with their stories. 

Today I am starting with a really special latina shop.


Jen Zeano Designs

How could I talk about chingonas and don't talk about the amazing latina I work with.


I found out about JZD during those nights when you are scrolling through IG and somehow I ended up finding her Bidi Bom Bom shirt (cause Selena fan, duh). I fell in love with her work. By the way, she has shirts, decals, jewelry, phone cases and hats with latina empowerment quotes. 
I joined her JZD Hermanas ambassador program last March, and I couldn't believe she made me part of her awesome team! How does this work? I earn some $$$ every time someone purchases something from her shop using my link. I joined because I'm all about that side hustle, and I get to talk about one of my favorite shops.

A little of Jen's story and her store.

In their words:

About Us

We are the free spirits and the wild hearts. The game changers and the movers. The Latinas and the doers. 
JZD is a Texas-based lifestyle brand with a mission to create rad things for the free spirits. We believe in kindness, girl power, staying up till 2am, adventure, Latina magic, and celebrating every tiny victory, which is why we strive to create a brand that celebrates all of you.
Our shop owner, Jen, is an adventure-seeking flower child! Mexicana and proud. She believes any occasion is good enough to celebrate and will never turn down an opportunity to spread kindness. She advocates love, peace, and equality and refuses to live by society's norms. She is a wild spirit and a happy soul. 

More about JZD:
They are a Texas-based online shop. They make rad things for the free spirits and they are home the LATINA POWER shirt.

What I own from JZD:





























*Cabrona Pero Cute shirt:
GET YOURS HERE

*LATINA POWER shirt (black & white):
GET YOURS HERE

*LATINA POWER shirt (pink):

GET YOURS HERE


What I like about JZD:

I'm all about rocking some awesome shirts with POWERFUL quotes. I'm used to the weird stares and the "don't you think your shirt it's a little aggressive" My reply: Yes, that's what is meant to be. Thanks, Jen for creating such a nice brand that allows us to show how proud we are to be Latinas & Cabronas. 

Where can I purchase?

10 SUMMER PRODUCTS YOU NEED IN YOUR LIFE!

Wednesday, July 4, 2018

Summer Besties Tag 2018




Hello! I made a commitment with myself to post twice a week for all the month of July. Since it's summer I thought it was a good idea to make all the posts related summer. Hope you enjoy it! 

Today we will talk about a tag that was so popular back when the beauty community was just staring in YouTube. The Tag is about choosing your 10 best products for summer from head to toes! So if you would like to know my 10 recommendations for you, keep reading!







1.Favorite Summer Lip Product.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask

If you suffer from dry and cracked lips, YOU NEED THIS! I only use it at night, but you can certainly use it during the day. It's a jelly type product. It does not feel heavy or slippery. It helps a lot with my lips! But the most important thing you can do to have plump lips is to DRINK LOTS & LOTS OF WATER! $20 Buy here





MAC Matte Lipstick In Candy Yum Yum

When I think of summer, I think about bright lipsticks! Especially pinks. Candy Yum Yum! is that bright pink that looks good on everyone! The lasting power is good. I chose a bullet lipstick instead of a liquid lipstick because I feel like the reapplication is easier and less messy. MAC lipsticks have a special place in my heart. $18.50 Buy Here



2.Favorite Summer Blush.

Too Faced Papa Don't Peach Blush

Ever since I started wearing makeup I have a thing for coral/shimmery blushes. I do not care if it is winter I will still use my coral blushes! I love this blush because it makes my skin look healthy. It's a really natural looking blush. $30 Buy here






Milani Baked Blush In Luminoso

Do I even need to introduce this blush? It's like a YouTube star. But it well deserves the hype it has. You want a blush you don't have to worry about you ending up looking like you got hit in the cheek, this is the one for you. I kid you not, every time I use this blush my coworkers says girl your makeup looks extra pretty today.  $7.99 Buy Here








3. Favorite Summer Nail Polish.

KL Polish in Porter Miami. 

First of all, KL Polish is amazing! Great formula, great brush & beautiful colors. Second of all is toxic free, and they last a long times on the nails. $9.50 Buy here





4. Favorite Summer Liquid Face Product.

Ulta Beauty Full Coverage Liquid Concealer Waterproof

This is supposed to be a dupe for the TARTE Shape Tape concealer. It is a great concealer. It holds up pretty well in humid weather. I barely wear liquid foundation during summer, I go for a more subtle look and that's why I chose this concealer. Its affordable and good quality. $9 Buy here





5. Favorite Powder Face Product For Summer. 

Ulta Beauty Double Duty Wet & Dry Pressed Powder Foundation

We need a powder to set the concealer right? I really enjoy this powder. And mostly because I prefer powder foundations instead of liquid ones. This one has decent coverage. And what I like the most is that you can use it wet for more coverage. $14 Buy here







6. Favorite Summer Hair Product. 

Ion Brunette Solutions Color Protect Shine Mist.

I like this product because it works like a two in one. It protects your hair from the heat (hot tools or hot sunny days)and it also gives some shine. I have frizzy hair even tho it's straight I get frizz. This product helps with that. $8.99 Buy Here







7. Favorite Summer Eye Product.


L'oreal Waterproof Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara 

I reaally like this mascara. It makes my lashes look so full and black! $7.99 Buy here

 Alamar Cosmetics Reina Del Caribe Eyeshadow Palette VOL. 1





Ahh, don't get me started with my Alamar palette. I really love this palette and the history behind it! Keep calm, I'm working on a review so soon you would read more about it :) I really like the colors and how versatile it is. $ 28 Buy here




8. Favorite Summer Self Tanner

I don't have one sorry. . .
Let me know a good option for light skin.

9. Favorite Summer Fashion Accessory.

Quay Australia X Desi Perkins High Key Sunglasses in Black Fade.






I love how versatile this sunglasses are, how they look good on everyone! They have become my staple accessory this past month or so. $65 Buy here

Embroidered Flower Shorts

I bought these mines last summer and I still love them! Shop similar ones here
