Glamglow Giftsexy Ultimate Anti-Aging And Clearing Skin Gift Set Review!


I took major advantage of Sephoras 20% off event last week to purchase some of the products I have been hesitant to buy but found over priced. I had my eyes on the Glamglow masks for some time, but I'm very picky when it comes to skincare products. My skin has been acting pretty good lately with the occasional little break out here or there, not complaining at all since I know it can be 10 times worst. 

This set contains:
- 1.7 oz Youthmud Tinglexfoliate Treatment 
- 0.5 oz Supermud Clearing Treatment 
- 1 oz Youthcleanse Daily Exfoliating Cleanser 
- Dual-ended applicator brush 


This gifts set is amazingly priced at $69 and its worth every penny, I have been using the cleanser at night time to remove my makeup and it does a really good job at removing my makeup and exfoliating my skin but also super dry so I will not be using this everyday. The masks are really with all the hype, I tried the Youthmud first and my skin was glowing, like even my husband commented on how great my skin looked. 

Today I tried the Supermud clearing treatment and wow I LOVE it too, I could actually see it working on deep cleaning my pores. After 10 minutes I rinsed off and my skin looked so much brighter and clearer, I took a picture (below) right after to show you the results. The kit comes with a dual ended applicator brush and it helps you pick up the product from the jar and apply it effortlessly. 

Overall I am really happy with this purchase and will definitely be adding it to my beauty routine and even in my studio to use on clients! 







Remove after 10 minutes

Postpartum Hair Loss And How To Grow New Healthy Hair!



Pregnancy comes with a lot of side effects for me, mostly negative like body aches, and nausea but it also has a few positives like my skin never looks better and my hair gets nice and thick. Unfortunately neither lasts forever and soon after pregnancy everything goes back to normal. The one thing I'm not looking forward to at all is the hair loss, and I'm doing everything in my knowledge to make this part not so dramatic by using and consuming things that will promote healthy hair growth.

 I started making (green) juices every morning rich in vitamins and proteins, also I make sure to drink half my body weight in water and take my prenatal vitamins. I am breastfeeding so the extra water and juices help me make more milk as well (win win) and stay hydrated and energized. These are some of my favorite hair masks to do, and I immediately notice a difference when I prepare these for my hair.
         

DIY Masks For Hair Growth

Mask 1: 
Egg Mask
  
Ingredients:
Eggs – 1 or 2 (depending on hair length)
Olive oil – 1 teaspoon
Honey – 1 teaspoon

How-to:
Take the egg white part and add all the ingredients into it
Mix it well to make it like a smooth paste
Now apply that paste all over your hair
Let it sit for about 20 minutes
Finally rinse it off with cool water and apply shampoo to your hair
Process has to be repeated for at least once in two weeks for better results.

Mask 2:
Banana (great as a face mask too!)

How To:
Take a banana (ripe one) and mash it to make a paste
Now massage this paste on your scalp and hair
Then cover your hair with a plastic bag like with shower cap or another one.
Wash it off with shampoo after leaving it for 45 minutes

Mask 3:
Avocado and Coconut Oil

Ingredients:
Avocado – 1/2 ripped
Coconut oil – depending on the length of your hair

How To:
Heat coconut oil for 15 – 20 minutes
Massage your hair from top to bottom thoroughly
After that massage your tips with avocado paste
Leave it for about 10 – 15 minutes
At last, rinse it off with shampoo.

How To Have Super Soft Feet !



Feet are one of the most neglected body parts, we worry about our face, hair, body and very rarely our feet. Not realizing that it takes a lot of upkeep to make sure you can wear gorgeous heels and still have soft feet and sometimes too much neglect can lead to really cracked and dry feet, NOT cute! It takes me one little trick! Of course visiting your local salon is always a good idea, but this super simple tip is one of my faves of all time and now with the cold nights around the corner makes this even more doable!



Tools:
Vaseline

Vitamin E Caspule/liquid
Socks
Scissors

Start by rinsing your feet with warm water, then pat dry. Next, place a quarter-size amount of Vaseline in your hands, then drop a few droplets of vitamin E. Work together between your hands and slather generously on your feet, one foot at a time. Then cut the toes off of your socks, and wear over night. Rinse off in the morning and go!

I highly recommend cutting the toes off, as wearing this night after night could cause fungal infections to the nail.         

Good Luck! Xxx

Los pies son una de las partes del cuerpo más descuidadas, nosotros nos preocupamos de nuestra cara, pelo, cuerpo y muy rara vez nuestros pies. No se da cuenta de que se necesita una gran cantidad de mantenimiento para asegurarse de que usted puede usar tacones precioso y aún tienen pies suaves y a veces demasiado descuido puede llevar a muy agrietado y pies secos. Por supuesto visitar su salón de belleza es siempre una buena idea, pero este super sencillo consejo es uno de mis favoritos de todos los tiempos y ahora con el frío helado de la noche a la vuelta de la esquina lo hace aún más factible.

Herramientas:
 Vaselina
Vitamina E Caspule/líquido
Tijeras

Inicio por lavar los pies con agua tibia, luego séquelo. Luego, coloque un cuarto de tamaño de cantidad de vaselina en las manos, y luego un algunas gotitas de vitamina E. Trabajar juntos entre las manos y untar generosamente en los pies, uno de los pies a la vez. A continuación, cortar la punta de los dedos de los calcetines, y el desgaste de la noche a la mañana. Lavar por la mañana e ir!

Le recomiendo cortar la punta de los dedos, como llevar esta noche tras noche podría caso las infecciones micóticas de la uña. 

Buena suerte! Xxx

My Holy Grail Eye Treatment!



I can't even believe how sensitive my eyes are. Know this,  nine out of ten my eyes are irritating me in one way or another. Dry eyes? Check! Watery? Check! Itchy? Check! Dark Circles? Check! Puffy eyes? Check! I'm sure there's a few more I'm missing but I won't bore you with all my sensitivity issues. 

I will tell you about my HOLY GRAIL eye treatment, I started using Clinique when I was in high school. To be honest with you this is the only department store product I use to buy. I stopped using this eye treatment a year ago to try out other eye creams and some were good, a lot of them irritated my eyes even more. I gave up my search and went back to the only eye treatment that  truly works for me. 

I love the silky texture and how I immediately see a difference after I apply it. The hardest part about using eye cream is that they tend to creep into the eyes after a few hours and burn, not this one! It has brightening ingredients that work instantly and also over time to diminish the look of circles and fine lines. It comes packed with botanical and proven ingredients to depuff and calm the eye area. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for new eye treatment to treat circles and puffy eyes! 

Una de las cosas que mas me molestan es lo sensitivo que son mis ojos, siempre me pican o están súper resecados. La verdad es que todo me incomoda en los ojos, después de dos bebes, la universidad, trabajos donde me tenia que levantar de madrugada me empezaron a salir unas ojeras horribles. He tratado de todo, desde tratamiento caseros a muchos productos y aunque muchos me ayudan a disminuir la apariencia de las ojeras, algunos me irritaban los ojos aun mas. 

Quiero compartir con ustedes el mejor tratamiento que yo he tratado para combatir las ojeras. Es de Clinique All About Eyes! Me fascina la textura sedosa que tiene y como inmediatamente veo una diferencia al aplicarme esta crema. Viene cargada de ingredientes botánicos que ayudan a ver una diferencia inmediata pero que también con el tiempo ayudan a eliminar los círculos negros y las hinchazón. Le recomiendo estos productos a todos los que como yo están sufriendo de ojeras! 

Good Luck/ Buenas Suerte! Xxx

Get Rid Of Dark Circles With This/ Desaparece Tus Ojeras Con Esto...


If you are wondering why I haven't done any fashion posts, or makeup the reason is  I look like I haven't slept in weeks! And i kinda haven't, between home repairs, and my beautiful three year old sleeping with us every night I haven't had a beauty sleep in weeks.  Dark circles along with large pores and acne scars, is one of the most annoying things we come across as women (and even men) A super easy and effective way to remove dark circles and even lighten skin all over your face and body is using potatoes! Potatoes have catecholase which are in all of those really expensive face brighteners you buy from department stores. All you need to do is use the purree of one raw potato and apply it all over your eyes. If you are applying to your eye area make sure you don’t get any in your eyes! Leave on your face for 15 minutes before washing your face as usual! You can repeat this 3 times a week if needed! If you find you need a little moisture, try adding just a few drops of honey or Vitamin E oil. Good Luck Xxx

Si usted se está preguntando por qué no he hecho ningún look de moda, o maquillaje la razón es que me miro como no he dormido en semanas! Y la verdad es que no, entre las reparaciones del hogar, y mi hermosa niña de tres años durmiendo con nosotros todas las noches no he tenido un sueño de belleza en semanas. Los círculos oscuros junto con grandes poros y cicatrices de acné, es uno de los más molestos que nos encontramos las mujeres (y hasta hombres) UN super fácil y efectiva de eliminar los círculos oscuros e incluso aliviar piel de la cara y el cuerpo es con papas. Las papas se han catecholase que están en todos los blanqueadores cara realmente que venden en tiendas por departamento. Todo lo que tienes que hacer es utilizar el purree de una papa cruda y aplicarlo en toda sobre los ojos y rostro. Si usted está aplicando a su área del ojo asegúrate de que no caiga ninguna en tus ojos. Dejar en la cara durante 15 minutos antes de lavarse la cara como de costumbre! Puede repetir este 3 veces a la semana si es necesario. Si necesita un poco de humedad, pruebe a añadir unas pocas gotas de miel o la vitamina E.

My Cant Live Without/ No Puedo Vivir Sin Mi.... Vol 4


I have seriously damaged my hair sooooo many times that its hard to believe I still have any left on my head. I can only thank my great home recipes and all the amazing hair products I try. But this one from Moroccanoil is freaking amazing, I have been using this for six years now and I love it. I use a quarter size on my whole hair every night before I go to bed and or before blow drying it and I swear this stuff is magic. It leaves my hair silky smooth, frizz free and protects it from future damage. I seriously haven't found anything better. 
Good Luck! Xxx

He dañado seriamente mi pelo tantas veces que es difícil de creer que todavía tengo alguno sobre mi cabeza . Sólo puedo agradecer a mis grandes recetas en casa y todos los productos para el cabello increíbles que trato . Pero éste de Moroccanoil es increíble, he estado utilizando esto durante seis años y me encanta. Yo uso una pequeña cantidad del tamaño de una moneda en toda mi cabello todas las noches antes de irme a la cama y o de desecarme lo a blower   y juro esto es magia. Deja el cabello suave y sedoso , libre de frizz y lo protege de daños futuros. En serio, no he encontrado nada mejor. Alguna ves lo as tratado? 
Buenas Suerte! Xxx

DIY: Awesome Cellulite Body Scrub/ Haslo En Casa: Anti-celulitis Exfoliante Corporal



 It seems that every woman, no matter how genetically blessed has at least one dimple some where, if not a few hundred! I always thought I would be dimple free, but that was just a fairy tale! I was trying to find a natural home scrub and found this one, and I must admit that I'm in love. It feels so nice on my skin and I can actually feel it working plus the smell of coffee made me feel refreshed and awake! I don't drink coffee but if someone was to tell me that drinking it will vanish my celullite I would start jugging it down! try it and let me know how you like it!

Awesome Cellulite Body Scrub:
2 Cups Ground Coffee
1 Cup Brown Sugar
4 Tablespoons Olive Oil or Almond Oil (I use more than 4 tablespoons, and baby oil)
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and use the scrub in the shower. Make sure to be careful to wash scrub off well, as the coffee could stain towel or clothing if not rinsed well.  Feel free to add essential oils if desired as well!

Good Luck! Xxx

Want 3 More Inches?


The first time I tried this treatment I had the most mistreated bleach blonde short hair I have ever had in my whole life. This seriously changed my life back then and I can't believe I have never blog about this. I went out to bloomingdales and bought me a bottle since my hair needs the extra love right now. The way this treatment works is by slowing down the aging process of your hair by coating it with a unique cashmere protein and amino acid blend, which means your hair can grow longer and healthier! You only need to do this treatment before every wash, or every second wash if you wash your hair every other day. I personally put it on the night before and sleep with it on my hair. Its amazing how from the first use I can immediately see a difference in my hair. I haven't tried anything else from this line but might have to give it a try. Good Luck Xxx

Purchased: Bloomingdales
Price: $38.00

Coconut Cream Hair Mask!


  This mask is Ahhhhmazing!! Just tried it and I looove it! I also like that my hair didn’t smell bad after I washed it, which is always a bit tough with homemade hair recipes! This one seriously takes the cake for extreme moisture and gorgeousness!

The ingredients in this hair mask also promote hair growth and healthy scalp, BUT may make your hair a bit relaxed. This is not recommended for extremely fine hair, as it might make your hair took to greasy.

DEEP MOISTURE COCONUT CREAM HAIR MASKIngredients:

1/2 cup coconut cream
2 tablespoons sweet almond oil or avocado oil (I used both together)

Mix together ingredients very well, make sure oil and cream are blended. Then apply generously to hair and cover with a plastic hair wrap. Let sit for 30 minutes and wash! Good Luck Xxx

Product Rave: Moroccan Oil Hair System



 I can't believe I haven't posted anything on the moroccan oil line, I started using it about 2 years ago after I had one of the worst hair procedures in my LIFE! I had to cut off most of my hair and outgrow the most hideous shades of blondes, my hair was so weak it would literally break in my hands. A hairstylist i went to for help told me about these products and I fell in love right away. I LOVE this line and always end up coming back to it, everything from the shampoo is so luxurious and rich, I immediately see a difference just from using the shampoo, and their Repair mask is no joke it really is intense and I see it working immediately. I recommend this line to everyone its a little on the expensive side but for me its worth it. Good Luck! Xxx

Is Your Hair Causing You Acne?



 One of the biggest causes for body acne is actually our hair products! We use so many oil and shine-enhancing products that help keep our hair tamed but also add a TON of oils in our hair! Of course our hair needs it, our skin however, not so much! So one of the easiest ways to boot backne is actually keeping your hair off your shoulders and back when you get out of the shower! If you are a tank gal, try wearing a full neck tee until your hair dries! As for breakouts around your forehead area, after you apply your hair products, run a toner along your forehead and apply a light moisturizer! This has personally helped me in keeping my skin super clear and bump-free!! Good Luck Xxx

 I started doing my own hair, mainly due to the lack of time and I am a little scared to let people touch my hair!! I know its crazy, but after having all kinds of damage done to my hair in the past, I have become over protective of it. So I am experimenting and trying out a lot of ways to active the "Salon Look" at home. This hair mask is awesome for creating super volume!! It does smell, but if you can bear it, you’ll be so glad you did plus the egg yolk will help seal split ends!
SUPER VOLUMINOUS HAIR MASK

1 Egg Yolk
1 Teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
Mix ingredients together beating slightly so that consistency is smooth. Apply directly to your roots and let mixture sit for 45 minutes. Wash and style hair as normal!
