SKIN CARE WITH PRYADERM

April 29, 2016

You all know how much I love trying out new products and today I want to share a new line of skin care that I have been using the past couple of weeks. It's called PryaDerm, in Sanskrit, Prya means beloved while Derm derives from the Greek root for skin. The line is meant to rejuvenate and brighten your skin and protect your skin at the cellular level. I love how my skin feels right after I've washed my face with the products. I start off with the Rejuvenating Cleansing Mousse, it's really light and smells fresh and clean. I follow that with the Skin Brightening Day Lotion which give my skin a lot moisture and brightness and lastly I spray the Rejuvenating Facial Mist all over as a toner. The Rejuvenating Facial Mist

TRENDING: OFF THE SHOULDER TOPS

April 22, 2016

At the beginning of the month I stayed in Miami for a few days and the weather was everything. Not too hot, not too cold, just perfect. So it was the perfect opportunity to pull out my new (and on super sale) bell bottom jeans that I had recently purchased at H&M. I had been on the hunt for a cute pair for a while but being 5' tall I wasn't lucky in a long time, until I found these! I paid only $15 and they fit like a glove. Of course I had to add platform sandals but they were perfect and super comfortable. I really loved how this look turned out. It was easy breezy and so comfortable, very me.

As a mom and wife and full-time blogger, I know how necessary a little me time can be. I've always said it, in order to be a happy mom and wife, you have to be a happy woman first. Whether that means a little alone time reading a favorite book at a coffee shop, a mani/ped, or of course, my favorite, a shopping trip to the mall, which is always a good idea. It's so true that retail therapy really works! Honestly, shopping gets rid of all my stress. It instantly helps me feel better when I am having a bad day. I am sure all of you can relate.

OUTFIT OF THE DAY AT HISPANICIZE

Last week I attended the very well known Hispanicize. And you guys got to follow me along via Snapchat:) The conference was amazing, it was such a great way to connect with brands and network your butt off in order to grow your blog and learn so many tips and ideas on how to be a successful influencer. Hispanicize is known for its extensive lineup of brands, media and influencers that attend each year. I was extremely happy to be asked to cover the event throughout the week by taking over their Twitter and Instagram accounts for several of the events going on throughout the conference. I have a vlog coming up today where you can get a feel for what the first day of Hispanicize was all about. I totally recommend you try your best to attend this conference, it is held in beautiful Miami
