April 2012 Favorites!

Today, I'm going to show you all the products that I've been using a lot this month, and that's why they're my april favorites :)

I'm sorry I'm posting this on may 3rd, but I was out of town for a few days and got home yesterday (some of you probably already knew that).

So yeah, let's go into it and like I did last month, I'm going to divide it into sections:

MAKE UP:

1. Make Up For Ever HD Foundation: This is seriously my favorite foundation of all time. It's great on my skin and also the color matched me perfectly I would say (I'm in the color 117, if you were wondering). I might do a separate post to review it and let you know all about it since it's a little bit pricey (it cost me 38€ at Sephora) and I like to read reviews before buying something that expensive. But overall, it's pretty amazing.

2: Milani Illuminating Face Powder in "Beauty's touch": I use this as a blush since it's very pink and I think it's really pretty. Also the packaging is very eye catching.

3: NYX Lipgloss in "Cosmo": it looks kind of brown right there but when you put in on your lips it gives them a great color and it also has a lot of shimmer/glitter to it; but I love it.

SKIN/ HAIR CARE:

4: Elf Cucumber-Melon body lotion: this is very inexpensive and smells amazing. It's a really fresh lotion that doesn't leave oil on your skin and absorbs sort of fast. I have sensitive skin and I didn't have any problem with this, so that's a plus.

5: Sephora Waterproof eye makeup remover: I only wear waterproof mascara and this just removes it in a second. I apply just a little bit of it on a cotton pad and swipe it across my eye. It works wonders and it was only 3€. You can also get a bigger bottle for 10€, I believe.

6: L'Oreal Elnett hairspray: I only use this hairspray and even though it's not what it claims to be, it's still amazing and I love the smell of it too.

7: Yes To Tomatoes facial wash: this is my 2nd favorite discovery after the foundation. It's made for combination/oily skin and it leaves my face fresh. I use it twice a day and it doesn't break me out of anything,  so I recommend it to all of you. 

I'm sorry this was a little bit short but I really didn't try that many things out this month. I'll try to get new stuff this month and I'll hopefully have some new favorites in a month :)

Also, please check out my favorites YouTube video if you have the time:

Weekly photos #3

I'm so sorry I'm posting this on a Monday and not Sunday, as I usually do. I'm out of town for a few days since we have a national holiday next to a autonomous community (which is kind of like a state), and we just went away to the town where my mom was born since we have a house here too.

The weather is the worst (it's raining all the time, non-stop), so I haven't been able to do much yet, but I'm hoping we can go to a few places around here and I can take some nice photos to show to you all.
 

1. My sister and I decided to eat lemons just like that and see who made the worst face after. She claimed she loved lemons and when she tried it, her face was hilarious. I wish I had taken a picture of that instead haha.

2. That's my cat, but I say she's my baby. I love her so much and she's been just laying around this house, exploring it like a crazy cat. I mean, this house is a 3-story house which is huge for her since we live on a flat/apartment type of house (although it's not small). 

3. I finally decided to get the Make Up For Ever HD Foundation and I've been loving it. I think it's worth the money: it was 38€.

4. I love strawberries and my father's been buying them a lot, so I'm happy about that.

5. My father also gathered some flowers the other day on this place close to our house here, since this is a small town and has country side around it.

6. That's my cat again, on the kitchen window, looking to the patio we have here.

7 - 8. These are some pictures taken in Madrid, where I usually live. I love the center of the city (where I went to Sephora was close to those buildings) and I feel like it's a unique city that most of you probably haven't seen before. Also, I feel very proud to live where I live although I want to move to the states, and I like showing you all some parts of this beautiful city :)
