Hair change!

YES! I did it. All of a sudden one day I said "I want to dye my hair black" 3 days later I did it. And I LOVE IT! 

I used L'oreal hair dye in Soft black which was perfect for a week or 2. Since the color started fading a little I went back to the pharmacy and bought Jet black and I am loving the hair lately. It makes me look more goth-like, sexier and more confident. Overall was a great thing to do and now I am waiting for the end of the year to dye my hair blonde, because I decided it is time to pull the trigger and do everything I've always wanted!

Beach blonde

Go where your mind wonders...

And I realized I always crave white sand beaches with turquoise transparent water! I mean life doesn't get any better than that, does it?

I have a strong love with shoes and bag and fashion overall but a part of me wants to pack my bags and go travel the world, discover new places, enjoy new things and see everything I can before I die. I'm pretty sure we all have those things and to be honest right now I am the person that says "If you want something go ahead and do it, why waiting?" but reality is, I love my reality as well. It would be so hard to pack my bags and leave NYC, because I love being here. I guess that's the price you pay when you tend to love deeply.

Big lips? Lip plumper

In my defense and you all can ask my mom. I've always loved this made up big lips, Angelina Jolie type and those like you know they've been done. Luckily I do have nice sized lips and pretty ones, I like them to be honest. But sometimes I daydream of having this huge made up lips like Kylie Jenner does. Honestly I would do it, but what if something goes wrong and I loose my nice lips and then I don't have the lips I want? Thanks to that I stumble across this lip plumper by soap and glory. And here is what I have to tell you.

Brunette to Blonde

I've been thinking of going blonde for a good while now (almost 5 years?) But I am just so bad at making decisions, I'm a Capricorn what else could you expect? And the fact that Brunette to blonde is kinda risky right? So I've never made up my mind if I should go for it or not but I think I finally convinced myself of going blonde. I want to think about it a little bit more before I committing to probably 5 hours in the salon and a lot of hair treatments after that (I am quite lazy when it comes to beauty and fashion). So, should I go blonde?

A little happiness

Long time no see! I've been so drowned into this NYC life that is already driving me crazy, and it is true I have my ups and downs I am really struggling with life here, like asking myself is this what I really want? Am I feeling good here? those little burst of happiness are what happiness and life is all about or happiness is much more? Anyways. I great way to cheer me up of course is doing my nails.

Skin detox

Woooosh. I am not sure if I am going to be able to but I am going to try my best. Since last year, when I moved to NYC my skin has been a hot mess and not hot in a cute way, I mean in a very crazy way. I think that the combination of everything has made a huge impact on my life and how I react to things specially my body and skin since they have been the one that have suffered the most. Remember my post about Lifestyle Detox? this is Part II.

Lifestyle Detox

Being stressed all the time (I just can't help it) running around everywhere and not having time at all have been the 3 major things that are affecting my lifestyle. While I don't feel super bad I am not feeling at my greatest since I am tired all day since I wake up, I don't have enough energy (even tho I do everything I want) but it would be nicer to do everything with energy. I'm gonna make these changes...

Dark as your lipstick

Dark lipsticks are one of my favorite things, I probably have too many and I have no shame! They can dress up an outfit or give an edge to a very feminine flower dress. I am going to be very humble here (sarcastic) I have been blessed with great lips, but some people can struggle with dark lipsticks, so if that's the case, always use a lipliner first so it will make it easier for you to fill in with the lipstick and touch up any not-so-perfect lines.

Keeping it simple

Well, well, well. When I first saw all youtubers getting the new Infallible pro matte foundation from L'oreal I was like SOLD, I NEED IT and of course in Chile never came (or it wasn't in the same packaging) and also it was double the price, since I knew I was coming to NYC I decided to wait and buy it in the first CVS that I come across. 

.

Hair care

My hair is one of the things I worry about the most, I like to have volume, length and health that's why I cut my hair every 2 months or every month if I remember (because I only cut it on full moon!). And when I got some nice stuff from Ulta, these too came as a gift so why not trying them and give you my opinion about them. 

.

A pick me up!

Well, we all have been there. To give up on the trend and buy the expensive, nice packaged one? or take the chance and buy the cheapest one hoping it might not be as good as the high end one. I am here to give your pores a great solution.

New In: Luminoso

Ok, another beauty buy today! Well Milani products have been in my mind for a long time and actually I've tried some of them and really like them, but I've never tried their blushes which seem everyone loves them. I had a coupon so, why not trying it? I went for Luminoso, which is definitely not a shade in my cosmetic buy.

Murad moisture

I don't remember if I post this or I just have been thinking about it for a while since I'm in NYC. I have some trips where I am all about makeup or clothes but I think this one, has been all about skincare. I've been trying a lot of different things lately and of course I want to share some secrets with you! 

.

Moisture. CHECK.

Sephora Mask

I first heard about these Sephora face masks when they came out, last year I think. And I bought myself only one, this pink one to my plane ride back to Chile, and OMG what a difference they made to my skin on that trip! It is AMAZING the power of moisture these have!

Honey Berry

If you are any like me, you are obsessed with bold lipsticks, honestly I cannot imagine my life without a nice bold fuchsia or a very dark purple, even a black lipstick. That's why today I am sharing my obsession with this new lip liner by Essence Honey Berry.

Today's look

Today is Saturday, my kind of familiar day, I don't know why but we never get together on Sundays, we just don't. So Saturday is the day where I want to be comfortable, fresh and polished at the same time. I have to be honest, I never have too much makeup on, except from when I go to events and things like that. But for days like this, I rather go on a more "No makeup, makeup" than my average out and about days.

Battle of the concealers

To the beauty ladies I am sharing today a little battle of the concealers. If there's one beauty product I am obsessed with, is concealers (and lipsticks) not only because with the years I've been noticing my dark circles are getting Panda-like eyes but because is such a versatile product that can be worn as a tinted moisturizer.

Every brush you need to have

I am a huge brush lover but I am definitely into face brushes rather than eye ones (I am just a sucker for contouring). So today I wanted to share the basic pack that I would highly recommend anyone should have in their homes. Remember this is a complete pack so if you are more into face brushes like me just buy the face brushes but if you are more into mixing eye shadows and crazy eye makeup definitely here are some brushes missing.
