FOTD- Movie Time

Today's Face of the Day is a look I wear very often since it's so easy to do and still looks good for when you go out at night.  Since I didn't have a lot of time to get ready I went for my to go to look and added a bright pink lip to spice it up.  BTW I was going to watch the movie Ted, which was so and so for me.

              ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

El "Face of the Day"  es un look que me utilizo muy a menudo ya que es muy fácil de hacer pero a la misma vez se ve bien para cuando salgas por la noche. Como yo no tenía mucho tiempo para poder prepararme me maquille con este look y me puse una rosa brillante en los labios que le añade un toque de color. Por cierto que yo iba a ver la película de Ted que no esta mas o menos.

FOTD- A Dash of Blue

It's been a while since I did a face of the day so I took advantage of Mother's Day and did both.  Since I wore a royal blue maxi dress I wanted my makeup to be a little more subtle, since it was during the day.  I went for a shimmery eye with blue underneath.  

                     --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hace tiempo que no he hecho un "Face of the Day", así que aproveche el Día de las Madres he hice los dos cosas. Como yo llevaba un traje azul largo yo quería que mi maquillaje fuera un poco más sutil, ya que fue durante el día. Así que lucí unos ojos con brillo con color azul debajo.

What I'm wearing/Que tengo puesto:

Face (Cara):

• Rimmel Fix & Perfect (001)
• Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 Hour Foundation in True Nude (303)
• E.L.F. blush and Bronzer (from the contouring blush and bronzing duo)
• Clinique's Line Smoothing Concealer in Light
• Benefit's High Beam 
• Maybelline Dream Matte Powder

Eyes (Ojos):

• Urban Decay Priming Potion
• Maybelline Color Tattoo in Too Cool and Tough as Taupe
• Pacific from the Frosted Trio palette from NYX
• Sin from Urban Decay
• Dark Brown from Chi Latte Quad by Maybelline
• Maybelline Illegal Length Mascara
• Jordana Incolor Fabu Liner (Black)

Eyebrows (Cejas):

• Avon's Perfect Eyebrow Pencil (dark brown F103)

Lips (Labios):

• Covergirl Lip Perfection in Rush (270)

I also winged out my liner so it would meet with the blue shadow underneath.

---------------------------------

Yo también hice una cola con mi delineador para que se uniera con el azul.

FOTD- Saint Patrick's Edition

Today's FOTD is inspired by St. Patrick's Day hence the smokey green eye look and for a bit of fun I also added a double wing liner.  I hardly ever wear green shadow so I was kinda nervous of doing the look but I love the outcome and will probably wear it out at night.

                          ------------------------------------------------------------------------

El "FOTD" de hoy está inspirado por el Día de San Patricio, decir por lo tanto, hice este look de ojos ahumados de color verde y para un toque diferente le añadí con mi delineador una doble cola. Casi nunca me pongo sombra verde, así que estaba un poco nerviosa de hacer el look, pero me encanta el resultado y probablemente lo volveré a hacer para ponérmela de noche.

FOTD- Au Natural (with a little help)

Last Saturday I went out to eat at my favorite Breakfast/lunch cafe, called El Carey located in Isabela, PR.  I really enjoy eating there when I come home on the weekends not only because the food is delicious, but also because it's located right next to the beach.  I went last Saturday with my bestie Elvira who also has a blog called First, Dessert: A Baker's Corner.  Any who since I was just going out to for a quick lunch I wanted a more natural look so I went for my everyday minimal makeup.  

What I'm wearing:

• L'oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Makeup 
• Sheer Cover concealer  
• Maybelline Bouncy Blush in Plum Wine
• Tarte Light's Camera Lashes mascara
• EOS lip balm in Sweet Mint

My hair is in the "second day curl" state that's why it has the wavy look to it.

 (I always get the special which is eggs, ham, and toast. But I really want to try their Oreo Pancakes)

Elvira's wearing:

• Bare Minerals Prime time Oil Control
• Clinique Super Defense SPF25 Moisturizer
