Angel Sailer Microneedle






I received this product in the mail and I won't lie... I was scared because it has needless that you put against your face! I'm still a little scared and i'm always very careful while using this because i don't want to hurt my skin. If you are thinking of buying one of this keep in mind that it can't be used if you have acne, Eczema, Rosacea, severe solar keratosis and moles or warts. You need to used mild pressure while using it and roll 10 times per area vertically and horizontally.  It gently exfoliates excess skin cells which contribute to hair follicle malnutrition, scaring or premature aging, and ultimately hair follicle failure, wrinkles, stretch marks, cellulite and scars. They come in different models, mine is MT10 (1.0mm). For any of you that want to do it I will say that it works great but I personally don't want to keep using it because I just don't want to put too much pressure and damage my skin. This is not a thing that I would purchase put it does work very well. This was available on Amazon but the seller is no longer using Amazon. It used to retail for $19.97. There are many other brands who sell this product if you are interested.

Have you tried this or are you thinking of purchasing one?

XANADU 24K Gold Serum | Review




When this company contacted me to review this product I was just so excited because I have never tried a product like this. Yes, i have tried many other facial serums but this is the first time I tried a 24 k gold serum. I love looking at it because it is just stunning and I love how the packaging looks. This serum is formulated with a combination of Botanical Ingredients, High Tech science, and 24K Real Gold. It will moisturize, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, even skin tone, repair sun damage, and give you a golden youthful glow. All the ingredients on the serum are just so good for your skin. You are supposed to used this twice a day after you wash your face. This can be used as a foundation primer as well. I love how nice and moisturized my face feels after I apply the serum. It is also very nice that after you apply it to the skin you can see tiny little gold pieces on your face because to be honest I think it looks cute. I have very sensitive skin and i haven had any problems at all so I would really recommend it. I have definitely seen a difference in my skin since I started using this product. It has been helping a lot with my dryness by keeping my skin moisturized. This product retail for $199 but it's on sale for $59. 


Isn't beautiful?

InstaLash Eyelash Growth Serum |Review






Hello guys sorry for not posting for the last week. I will update you guys soon.
I received this as a PR Sample about a month ago and since my eyes are still a little sensitive I decided to use this on my eyebrows. They say to apply after you clean your face. They applicator was very easy to use and to apply on my eyebrows. It doesn't have a smell which is nice. They say that you can see a difference in only 15 days and they have a before and after picture on Amazon. To be honest it did work but nothing too crazy! I did notice that I had more eyebrow hair in some places but like I said nothing too big. It's supposed to be easy on your lashes and skin and they claim that it is the purest  and least irritating eyelash stimulating and conditioning product available and safe for even the most sensitive eyes. InstaLash is a high performance lash lengthening serum designed to transform eyelashes in just two weeks like I mention before. It stimulates long term vitality and strength of your lashes by helping to prevent thinning and breakage. This product is Lab Tested and can increase 17% of eyelash length shown in 30 days. Increase 19% of eyelash diameter shown in 30 days. 3 times more eye lash volume shown in 15 days.You only need to use it once a day and for as long as you would like. If you are not 100%  satisfy with your results you can contact them at any time to receive a full refund.


Have you guys tried any products like this one?

Insecurities


Okay guys, let's be honest we are all insecure about something, including myself. I am currently so insecure about my smile. It is very ridiculous! I never want to smile around others and i just hate it. I am actually very excited to have a dentist appointment very soon because I'm tired of hiding my smile and just because I had a little accident and chipped a tooth and I think I look so ugly and it has change the way I interact with people since I am always trying not to smile or not to let them see my teeth. I know it sounds very stupid but for me my smile is very important! Have you ever had does dreams where your teeth just start to fall off? I have them all the time and they make me feel so scared! On top of that I have been having a stye on my eye. Once again my eyes are one of the things I love about myself and it drives me insane that it's taking so long to heal but I am very happy to see that it is getting better and it's almost gone. All this time i have been trying to stay at home just so people wont look at me in a weird way. I hate how people just look at you like you are disgusting or a monster! I'm sorry I'm not perfect but let me remind you that we all get things like this and we just have to deal with it. People will always have something to say about you or the way you look so this have thought me that I shouldn't care about what they think because this things are not permanent, yes they may take a long time to get better but I promise it will get better. Don't be hard on yourself just because you are going through something like this. I know it is hard and it might make you be depressed but it will get better! Don't listen to rude people on focus on something else. It doesn't matter if they say you are too skinny, too fat, ugly, your eyes are too big, you wear too much makeup, you have really bad acne or anything else because you are beautiful just the way you are and no one has the right to judge you! Remember that we all have insecurities and we are not perfect! Don't let your insecurities define you!

You are beautiful! 

If you are going through something like this or have any insecurities and would like to talk to someone feel free to email me or contact me through social media!

Vita Sciences Maxasorb Vitamin B-12 Cream | Review





This Vitamin B-12 cream is infused with antioxidants and moisturizers, It is not greasy and your skin absorbs it very quickly. It reduces the appearance of wrinkles while soothing dry, itchy and irritated skin. It also supports renewal of healthy skin cells. I was very happy to try this because like I have said before my skin has been very dry lately and also itchy due to the dryness. I usually like to use it after exfoliating my skin or after using a face mask and I only use it once a day. The cream is pink and it has a sweet and minty scent to it which I think is very nice. If you use it every day you will notice how great it works. Sometimes I forget to apply it but I really try to use it everyday because it's truly helping my skin a lot. My skin always absorbs the cream very fast and it leaves my skin feeling so nice and soft. It can be use under makeup and with your normal skincare routine. Like I said before this cream won't leave your face feeling greasy and it's very light and gentle on your skin. You don't need to use a lot, remember a little goes a long way. I will most likely be purchasing this if my skin keeps getting very dry like it has been lately. Needless to say I would totally recommend it if you have dry, itchy, irritated skin or if you have eczema or any skin rash.

Covergirl Products Review



Hello beauties 

Some of you guys may have seen this two products in stores now and might be thinking of trying them so I wanted to help you guys with a little review! I received this two products before they hit the stores and I was very excited to try them. I know it took me forever to review them but some of you guys may already know that I have been having a lovely stye on my eyelids and I didn't want to put any makeup on but they are finally almost back to normal so I had the chance to try them out. So let's begin with the mascara.

The Super Sizer by Lashblast Mascara 

This mascara claims to give you 400% more corner to corner volume and transform even the smaller lashes! I really like the packaging! The colors are very pretty and they make me think of summer. When I tried it for the first time I notice that the mascara wand is very flexible making the application easier. I love how easy it was to reach all my lashes without getting any mascara on my skin. The wand made it very easy for me to apply mascara on my lower lashes as well. The formula of this mascara is not too dry or too liquid which is nice. The mascara applies evenly and without clumps. It does give your lashes volume and it is very nice for the price. The only thing that I didn't like is that it wasn't waterproof at all. I happened to forget that I was wearing mascara and I rubbed my eye and when i looked at myself in the mirror I had mascara everywhere. Other than that this mascara is great and very affordable! It retails for $6.85.

Intensify Me! Liquid Eyeliner

The biggest thing about this eyeliner is the paddle shaped tip which allows you to get two looks at once. You can do a thick or thin look very easily thanks to the paddle tip. This was the first time ever that I tried a liner with that tip shape and I actually really like it. It is very easy to apply and the color is very pigmented. The eyeliner is not waterproof just like the mascara making it very easy to remove. It can be easily be removed with a makeup remover wipe or even a baby wipe so you really want to stay away from water while wearing this liner. It lasts a long time on if kept away from water of course. Do not rub your eye or your eyeliner with go everywhere! I like to use this when I want to wear just a little amount of eyeliner or when I want to create a thin line. Even though I do enjoy using this eyeliner I don't think I would pick this one over my other eyeliners. It retails for $8.00.

Have any of you guys tried this products yet? What do you think?

Radha Beauty Argan Oil and Coconut Oil | Review



Hello Guys!

I hope you guys are doing great and are enjoying this beautiful day. Today I am going to be reviewing two great products by Radha Beauty. I hope you guys enjoy it! Let's get started!


                                     

This Argan Oil is 100% Pure Argan Oil, it doesn't contain fillers.They claim that this Argan Oil is the highest quality of Moroccan Argan Oil found anywhere and it comes in a 4 once bottle.
It naturally freshens, hydrates and softens dry skin, it also repairs and beautifies hair, from roots to split-ends and improves scalp health. It comes with a dropper and a free Ebook of uses and benefits. This Argan Oil is a cold pressed virgin oil to ensure the best quality and highest grade oil. It is also unscented, lightweight and pure for the ultimate healthy glow. 

This Organic Argan Oil is extremely good. I love the blue bottle it comes in and it also includes a dropper. I wish the dropper worked better than it does since you don't really have a lot of control because the oil just comes out even when you don't want it to but other than that I really can't say anything bad about it. I have been using this oil on my hair and also face and it has been helping my skin go back to normal because it has been very dry and flaky even when I scrub and apply a moisturizer. I totally love how soft it makes my hair and also how shiny and healthy it looks. This is such a great Argan Oil! 


This Coconut Oil is 100% Pure Fractionated Coconut Oil and it comes in a 16 once bottle. This  fractionated Oil is always Liquid, Odorless, Colorless, Non Greasy and Non Staining It's good for massages, therapeutic recipes and Essential Oils. It also has natural antioxidant and disinfecting properties and does not clog pores. It is an extremely versatile oil that can be used for making anything from bug repellent to hair serum. It does not go rancid and can also be used to prevent other oils from going rancid

I find this Coconut Oil to be a little different than the one I reviewed before because it is a little ticker. For some reason the one I reviewed before felt like it was water but this one is more thicker very similar to olive oil but it doesn't feel tick on your skin it is very lightweight and moisturizing. I love using this for my hair every day. I usually have a spray bottle with water, Coconut Oil, Argan Oil and a few other things that work on my curly hair and use it every day and it really makes a difference. This is a great product to have around since you can use it for so many things and it doesn't go bad.


Are Argan Oil and Coconut Oil a must have to you?

Lately I haven't been doing my makeup that much since I'm always at home but I have to admit that I have done my makeup at least 6 times in this past few days so i have been using this makeup brush for my foundation. I love how the brush looks and also the quality of the brush. It applies your foundation evenly and it gets even the most difficult places to reach. The brush is extremely soft so it doesn't pull on your skin or makeup. I find it very easy to apply my foundation with this makeup brush and love how my makeup looks after I'm done applying my makeup.

Insta Natural Dead Sea Mud Mask| Review



Product Description


Dead Sea Mud Mask is an all-natural detoxifier and purifier that comes from the renowned and sacred Dead Sea. More than a million visitors each year flock to this extraordinary body of water in the Mediterranean, which contains many minerals beneficial to the skin, such as magnesium, sodium, bromine, potassium and calcium.

Once applied, this mud mask treatment starts working to absorb excess oil, dirt and toxins from the skin. It is great to expunge acne, pimples and blackheads. It also helps to restore an even skin tone for a smoother complexion. When used as a body treatment, the mud mask can soothe and relieve muscles aches and pains.

Whether used on the face or the body, our Dead Sea Mud Mask is a superb in-home spa treatment that will reveal more vibrant, refined, healthier skin. 



This mud mask has been helping me a little with my dry skin. I thought it would have a bad smell but it actually doesn't. You are supposed to leave it on for about 10 to 20 minutes or until dry. I usually leave it for 20 to make sure that I will get the best result. Most of the times I apply the mask and take a bath, clean the house, work on the blog or just watch a movie with my daughter. You might want to let the people around you that you are going to be wearing a mud mask or you might just give them a heart attack like I did to my fiance one time. Always remember to read the instructions because there are some face mask that you can use multiple times a week and others that can only be used once a week, this one it's meant to me used once a week only. You might think that they can't do any mad to your skin since they are so beneficial but that's wrong, if it says that it can only be used once a week just do as it says because remember your skin needs your natural oils and if you over use any face product your skin will start to get dry so don't go crazy. After the 20 minutes you can finally remove the mud mask with some warm water and then you can apply serums, oils, moisturizers and all that good stuff. After all I would say that I really enjoy using this mask and it definitely help with my crazy dry skin. 


Don't mind my frizzy hair and I told you guys you might look a little crazy and scary while using a mud mask. lol

I Opened My Etsy Shop!

Hello friends!

I'm so excited to finally share with you the big news! I opened my Etsy Shop last night!!!!
I have been wanting to open my own store for a while now and I kept postponing the opening date because I was too nervous but since yesterday was the first day of 2015 I decided to go for it and finally open my store. I think it is a great way for me to start the year.  I am really hoping that people will like my store because I have been working on this and getting ready for a long time now. I am very happy and I hope this year will be amazing for all of us. I came up with the idea of making hair bows because since I was a little girl I have been obsessed with bows and I remember one of my High School friends telling me that I should make my own since I love them so much, so after a few years I decided to give it a try and open my Etsy Shop. For now I only have 10 different designs but I am planning on adding more and eventually have custom orders and I decided to ship worldwide.  If you guys check it out please let me know what you guys think! I would love to hear your opinion!

This are the Hair Bows that are now available on my store:




Love, Yari.

Insta Natural Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Moisturizer | Review



The Niacinamide Vitamin B3 Moisturizer is a hydrates and plumps the skin. This is a rich and heavy moisturizer (not to be confused with our Vitamin B3 Serum), but it also dries fast and can be used in conjunction with the Niacinamide serum to diminish redness and inflammation, as well as reduce the appearance of scar, acne and hyperpigmentation. Our formula also contains Vitamin C that works synergistically to minimize damage from environment factors and promote ongoing skin health and rejuvenation, so you can attain a radiant, youthful glow.

Key Ingredients:
+ 5% Niacinamide
+ Vitamin C
+ Matrixyl 3000
+ Rosehip Oil


I totally fell in love with this moisturizer! The cold weather has been making my skin very dry, to the point that I would apply the products I usually use and my skin would still be dry. Since my face is getting so dry I need a creamy moisturizer instead of a more liquid one. This moisturizer is exactly what I need because it is very creamy and it made my face look and feel a lot better after one use. It is also good for oily skin because even though my skin is dry somehow I still get oily and after using this moisturizer even though it leave my skin very soft and moisturized it still doesn't make me oily at all. The moisturizer does have a very light scent, it's a fresh, clean scent, it's not overwhelming at all. This moisturizer lasts up to 24 months after opening and it's also cruelty free. I love using it in the morning and also at night but if you want something a little bit lighter during the day then you can just use it at night. I would totally recommend it!

My Favorite Bath and Body Works Winter Scent

Hello friends!

Lately I haven't been allowed to go to Bath and Body Works because I just go crazy! During the winter is when they bring back my favorite scent Winter Candy Apple. Last year while I was pregnant I couldn't go inside of Bath and Body Works because it would give me a headache but then one day I tried to go in and I was perfectly fine and there is when my obsession with this scent started. I love sweet scents and this one was just perfect. Last year I went totally crazy and I bought at least 10 of the Winter Candy Apple candles and countless amounts of the body wash and lotion. I still have quite a few of them, now you can imagine how crazy I really went. Well I guess that's what happens when you work at a mall that has Bath and Body Works. Anyways this scent is amazing, I thought I would stop liking it as soon as I had my daughter but no, I still really like it. I had to make a promise to myself that I wouldn't get more of this products this year because I have quite a few at home. Do you guys ever do that or am I the only one? If you  haven't try it you should totally give it a try. The body wash and lotion are lovely, they make you smell amazing but it's not overwhelming and the lotion makes your skin extremely soft and moisturized and your skin absorbs it very quickly without leaving any residue. The candle makes your whole house smell like you are making candy apples or apple pie.  Like I said already it smells sweet and look how cute the packaging is! 

What's your favorite winter scent?

Imagen Salon Formula Hair Products Review

Hello friends




The Stephan Co. to Launch Imágen™ Salon Formula for Growing Latina Hair Care Market

TAMPA BAY, FL (Sept 30th, 2014) – The Stephan Co., a leading developer of quality hair and skin care products, today unveiled Imágen, a game-changing new hair care line designed specifically 
with the Latina consumer in mind.
Ideal for those occasions when you absolutely need cabello perfecto (perfect hair), Imágen Salon Formula consists of six, salon quality hair care products: Moisturizing Shampoo – containing avocado oil and botanicals to naturally revive dry, damaged hair (12 oz); Strengthening Conditioner – formulated to penetrate the hair shaft, instantly detangling and smoothing even problem hair (12 oz); Leave-in Conditioner – a protein-enriched complex that restores moisture and softness (12 oz); Temporary Straightener – a straightening and shining formula to temporarily remove curl and frizz without harsh chemicals (12 oz); Shine – a weightless mist that adds brilliant shine (3.4 oz) and Anti-Frizz Serum – a greaseless finishing balm to tame ‘frizzies’ and seal split ends (3.4 oz). All products: MSRP$7.99.
The Stephan Co. also offers Imágenin value sizes for the entire family, including an Aloe Vera-based Shampoo (20 oz), Conditioner (20 oz), and Extra Hold Styling Gel (20 oz). All products: MSRP$4.99. 

Moisturizing Gel Shampoo

This shampoo was supposed to be very moisturizing but it wasn't, well at least not for my hair. It contains Avocado Oil to help replenish essential moisture and reduce frizz. I was very excited to try all of this products but I was very disappointed with most of the products. Most of the products didn't work for my hair type at all plus I am extremely picky when it comes to hair products. This shampoo was so bad for my hair. It made my hair feel clean but it made my hair dry, to the point that when I came out of the shower my hair was dry already and normally it takes a few hours for my hair to get dry. I washed my hair a few times after using this product and I'm still trying to get my hair back to normal because it feels so dry, like if it was damaged from using heat styling tool which is not since I have been leaving my hair natural for over a year now. I won't be using this shampoo ever again, it was very disappointing. I also didn't like the gel consistency of the shampoo or the smell at all.     
Leave- in Conditioner 

This leave- in conditioner was supposed to restore moisture, softness and also detangle your hair. The constancy of this is so watery, it feels like you are applying a sticky kind of water. I don't know about you, but I like my leave- in conditioners to be creamy and very moisturizing. This product wasn't
anything I would buy for my hair. Sadly to say it didn't give my hair the moisture my hair needs, it didn't make it soft and instead of detangling my hair it made my hair tangle like never before. I rarely get tangles but after using this my hair is tangled all the time and also dry, it is very frustrating because I had very soft, nice and beautiful healthy hair and now because of this products my hair is the total opposite and a hot mess.  

Hair Strengthening Conditioner

This is supposed to be for superior shine and manageability. It does make your hair shinny but nothing major, you have to be very close to my hair to even notice, I can't say the same about the manageability because it doesn't give you any. Once again this conditioner is not creamy, it is more liquid almost like the shampoo. It did nothing good for my hair so that's all I have to say about it. 

Temporary Straightener

Like I said earlier I have been leaving my hair natural for over a year and I wasn't about to ruin that just for this product so I had my fiance try this one out. This one is also a liquid consistency and there's not much to say about it other than it does the job but it doesn't control frizz like it says it does.

Shine 

This one is a high gloss mist to add shine. There's nothing bad about this one, I am actually still using this product to add a little bit of shine since it doesn't add that much shine but you only need a little bit or it will make your hair look greasy. 

Anti- Frizz Serum

This serum is supposed to protect against frizz and seal split ends. I am currently still using this one and I do enjoy it. It does what it claims to do but I would not use it after using their shampoo because your hair is going to get very frizzy.

When they contacted me to review their products I was very excited to try them out but as you can already tell it didn't work so great for my hair. I would not say that this products had a Salon Formula at all. I would give them a tip, instead of making a product for Latinas you should make a product depending on the hair type because not every hair is the same and not every product will work for everyone. I think this products are better for a person who has very oily and greasy hair. Their products are available at Target if any of you would like to try this.  I will have the links to their pages down below.
