Mothers Day Gifts Ideas

May is Finally here that means that Mothers day is right around the corner. In my home we celebrate Mothers Day twice. The American and Dominican Mothers day. American is at the beginning of May and Dominican is the Last Sunday of the month. I usually divide the gifts that i give my mom. Either one day i just take her out for brunch and the other i give her flowers and a nice present.

 Here i have different ideas of different gifts you can give your mom or grandmother on Mothers Day. I have a variety of options which you can choose. These are my top 9 gifts. Remember to never forget the card. I usually write a hand letter to my mom which she values a lot due that today most people send emails and texts and forget about hand writing a letter.  I am still old school. Plus my mom knows the hard work and dedication i put to the letter i even decorate it using color pencils just like the old days when i was in elementary school.

 I hope these gifts can give you a clue of what you want to give to your loved one. Never forget to say I LOVE YOU to your mom even if you live far from her call her and let her know. Remember everyday is mothers day. They sacrifice their lives to help us become the great person we are today. Their is no gift that i can give my mom other than loving, respecting and cherishing her. She is my true best friend. 

Tell me the one time you scored on the best gift for your mom on Mothers Day.

Favorite Skin Care Products

Its been a while since i have talked about my everyday body products. I decided to share with you today my everyday products from toothpaste to baby oil yep you heard it. I change some of my products from time to time but these are the products that i keep buying every month and have learn to love them. 

I usually use a body scrub once a week. I started using a tree hut body scrub about 3 years ago. I saw it at Ulta loved the price and the quality of it. It smells yummy and leaves my skin renewed. The other product i have used for the longest is the Neutrogena Rainbath body wash, its simply one of my favorite. It is a great soap for a bubble bath and i even use it when i shave my legs. It leaves my skin super soft. 

After I take a bath i usually like to use a body oil. I use to think that body oils would leave my body oily and i refuse to use any kind of oil until i started using Almond oil which my mom kept recommending and this Burts Bees Mama Bee body oil. I usually use it right after my bath when my skin is still damp. It is great to moisturize your skin and if you have stretch marks you can take a cotton ball and add some oil to it and apply it directly to your stretch marks. After a couple of weeks you will start seeing a change trust me. A

The other products are my regular day to day favorites such as my Hemp body moisturizer a burts bees foot cream my favorite one is the one that has coconut. It smells great and it leaves my foot soft as a baby. A new product that i bought new this month has been the Arm and Hammer advance white toothpaste and the listerine whitening restoring mouth wash. As an avid coffee and tea drinker my teeth are not the whitest. I decided to try these products. I am literally loving this combination. Even my mom said that my teeth are a bit brighter not that they are too stained but it helps me with my everyday. So what are your favorite products. Also, do you use any of these products if you do leave a comment.

Nude Booties For Spring

Sorry for being MIA these past weeks on the blog. I am in the mist of moving and boy is it stressful. From deciding what i want to keep to donate or throw away. I packed most of my cothing  up in boxes and my shoes are all sealed up in a shoe box. While looking at all of my shoes i notice that i am missing a pair of nude booties. I have brown and black booties but not nude. Nude booties are perfect for Spring and Summer. I took a break from packing up and decided to check one of my favorite stores in the whole world Shopbop Shoes department. I found these beauties aren't they breath taking. Most are peep toe  which is great because you can rock your pedi. I really have to own a pair of nude booties if not now but by the time i am all movedin in the new apartment. My favorite out of these  is the second in the middle on first row. Its by loeffler Randall i love their designs of booties amd my other favorite is the first of the bottom row by steve madden. You can also find a similar one in Target for less money. Soooo which one is your favorite?
