Fathers Day !

 Sneakers / Starter Kit /  Shirt /  Sunglasses / Brew  / Apple Watch Sport

Are you ready? have you bought your husband or Dad his gift already? Totally forgot about it, is okay. Take a deep breath and quickly check what i have here for you. Simple but amazing gifts you can give to that great PAPA of yours or hubby. 

Most dads don't know what they want on fathers day. Sometimes you have to take long guesses and ask tons of questions. example my mom and i would ask my dad what do you want for fathers day Andrew? he would always say anything or nothing. We would roll our eyes and say common just mention something you like or want. My father worked super hard to give my mom and i always the best. He never asked for anything and was always grateful of what he would get. 

We know he loved plaid shirts, watches and fedoras. He also loved my mothers favorite stew.  My mom and I got him one year a great pair of slippers not any but Uggs a bit pricy but we know he really kept looking at them when he would take us shopping.  my mom would make his favorite stew, get him comfy all day and watch his favorite sport and spent time with us. He would always have a smile on his face. 

Unfortunately he is not with us anymore. But.... There is no remorse waht so ever that we always tried to always not only on fathers day for him to be happy. Dads are suppose to be there for their family no matter what. Hard working souls that help raise a family and try their best to be a great head of the family. My DAD was all of that and much more. 

On this Fathers day try to make his day it doesn't have to be with expensive gift. It can be a beer garden reservation, or a picnic with family or even much better a BBQ.  I added these gifts to give you an idea what you can give him. If he is in to technology you can give him the new apple watch or a great pair of sneaker for his relaxing weekends. If he likes beer you can give him a beer kit super inexpensive and he can make craft beer with his own hand. You get the idea. I hope all you spent a great day. 

Happy Fathers Day to all dads !

Top Five Trends For This Summer !

Hola!! It's been a long time without blogging. Trust me i missed it a lot and i apologize for being away for so long. But.... As many of you may know i am in the process of attending graduate school and my mind has been only on that. But I am back and ready to talk about my top favorite trends that you will need this Summer.

The First trend is Round Sunnies ! Transport yourself to the 70's.

Favorite Beauty Products Of The Moment

cleanser / Moisturizer  / lip balm / Mask / Sunscreen / Coconut Oil / Toner

Lately It has been feeling more like Summer than Spring. It has been super sunny and hot. The past two weeks have been super stressful due to  studying intensely for my Grad school Exam. I took the exam this Saturday i hope everything goes well. Now i can finally calm and pamper my skin. I have combinations skin but this winter left my skin very bad with a couple dry patches and dryness. On some days i would only used my every day cleanser Cetaphil and moisturizer with SPF and maybe when i had chance a mask. 

My plan for the next couple of weeks is to go back to my everyday routine. Sunday was all about relaxing and my skin. Not only face but all over. But since this post is only about face products i will try to keep it as short as i can. 

Due to my highly sensitive skin I have adapted my skin to a regimen where i don't use too many products especially products that i know won't irritate my skin. On this post you are going to see everything except an under eye cream. Just bought a new eye cream and want to try it for a week or so before i share with you my thoughts. 

I started using not long ago Clinique moisturizing gel due to that one of the girls from Sephora told me that gel penetrates to your skin while the lotion stays in the surface. I really love how the moisturizer glides softly around my face. 

Another favorite product of mine is the Origins Charcoal Mask. This mask is amazing not only are my pores less visible after i apply this on my skin but i feel my face brighter. It doesn't leave my surface oily and it's full of goodness. It has been one of the best investment. 

And my last favorite product is Coconut oil the holy grail !!! I mean DUH is COCONUT OIL . Have been using it for years. I can go on with a list of how i apply it or use it but this time i will give you an easy recipe. You will need 1/2 cup of coconut oil and 1/4 of a cup of Brown Sugar I buy organic.  

Take your stand mixer and mix it for 5 minutes. It will be the softest scrub on earth. I apply it once a week to my face and lips. I try to get all that dead skin from my face and boy does it work. It makes my face feel brand new i am telling you ladies is a must. You can also apply this all over your body before bathing.
