Nail of the Day | Rimmel London - Black Cab

If you told me a few years ago I was going to be in love with black nail polish, I wouldn't have believed you. I was always into pinks and reds, and then got into more colors. With that said, black has become my favorite color to paint my nails, and it's all thanks to Black Cab by Rimmel London.

This nail polish is great! It only takes two coats to get completely opaque and it's not an expensive nail polish. It's also super creamy, even if you don't use a top coat (which I always do because that way my nail polish lasts longer).

Si hace unos años me dices que me iba a encantar el pintauñas de color negro, no te habría creído. Siempre me gustaban los rosas y rojos, y luego empecé a usar más colores. Con esto dicho, el negro se ha convertido en mi color preferido para pintar mis uñas, y es todo gracias a Black Cab de Rimmel London.

¡Este pintauñas es genial! Solo tienes que darte dos capas para conseguir que esté completamente opaco y no es un esmalte caro. Es muy cremoso, incluso si no usas top coat (aunque yo siempre lo hago porque así me duran más los pintauñas).

Do you have a favorite black nail polish?

¿Tenéis algún pintauñas negro favorito?

Outfit of the Day + Get Ready With Me

A few days ago I posted a get ready with me video on my YouTube channel. When I filmed it, I took some pictures of my outfit so I could write this post, so here it is.

It's not the most exciting outfit, but it's what I actually wore. 

Hace unos días subí un vídeo "get ready with me" a mi canal de YouTube. Cuando lo grabé, hice algunas fotos de mi outfit para poder escribir este post, así que aquí está.

No es el outfit más emocionante, pero es lo que realmente me puse. 

Cardigan - Brandy Melville

Tshirt - Brandy Melville

Shorts - Pacsun

Necklace - Forever 21

Booties - H&M

If you want to see how I did my makeup and all the products I used, here's the video:

Si queréis ver como me maquillé y todos los productos que usé, aquí está el vídeo:

January Beauty Favorites 2014!

As every month, I made a video about my beauty and random favorites! Here I'm just going to show you the beauty part, but if you want to know about the other stuff, the video is going to be linked below.

Como todos los meses, he hecho un vídeo sobre mis favoritos de belleza y también series, música, etc. Aquí solo os voy a enseñar los de belleza, pero si queréis ver los otros, el vídeo va a estar al final del post.

Benefit Hervana blush: This blush is a staple, at least the color. It gives a very natural look to your face since it's a matte light pink color. It doesn't have any shimmer at all. Also, since it's a bit sheer, you can get it to look as light or dramatic as you'd like.

Este colorete es esenicial, al menos el color. Da un aspecto muy natural ya que es un rosa claro mate. No tiene nada de brillos. Además, como no está muy pigmentado, puedes ponertelo tan natural o dramático como quieras.

Benefit The Porefessional: I started using this product this month and I'm in love with it. It makes my pores look like they're a lot smaller, which is always good. The only down side is the price, since it was 32€ here in Spain, but if it lasts a long time (which I don't know yet) then it wouldn't be as bad.

Empecé a usar este producto este mes, y me encanta. Hace que mis poros parezcan mucho más pequeños, lo cual viene bien siempre. Lo único malo es el precio, ya que me costó 32€ aquí en España, pero si dura mucho tiempo (lo cual no sé todavía) entonces no sería tan malo.

Naked 3 palette by Urban Decay: My favorite part of this palette is the darker half. I find lighter pinks to look a bit weird on me, but these eyeshadows are obviously gorgeous. 

Mi parte favorita de esta paleta es la mitad más oscura. Creo que los rosas más claros me quedan un poco raros, pero estas sombras son obviamente preciosas.

Maybelline expression kajal in black: I forgot I even had this eyeliner, but it does a great job.

Se me había olvidado que tenía este eyeliner, pero funciona muy bien.

Bourjois eyeshadow in Citron Givré: This is a light yellow eyeshadow, as you can see in the picture. I use it to lighten up the inner corner of my eye, so it looks like I'm more awake.

Esta es una sombra amarillo claro, como podéis ver en la foto. La uso para aclarar la parte del lacrimal del ojo, para dar un aspecto más despierto.

December Beauty Favorites 2013!

It's the last day of 2013 and I wanted to share with you my last monthly favorites of the year! I also did a video on this which would be at the end of the post, if you want to check it out.

NYX lip liner in Deep Red: I've been using it with the lipstick I'm showing you here as well. It was very cheap but it's good quality and it maked my lipstick stay all day long, even if I eat and/or drink.

MAC pro longwear concealer: I've been breaking out a bit lately and this covers even the worst things. It's amazing!

Benefit Hello Flawless foundation: a lot of people love it and I can see why. I've been using it for an everyday use instead of my Revlon Nearly Naked lately.

Urban Decay Naked Basics palette: I love this palette so much and I tend to use it everyday just cause it's so handy and easy. Lately I've been liking really light eyeshadow, so the shade Venus is getting some well deserved love.

Maybelline Baby Lips in Pink Wink: it smells like bubble gum!! and who doesn't like a light pink balm?!

Rimmel London Kate matte longlasting lipstick in 107: it's the perfect deep red color. I'm obsessed with it and I think it's perfect for the Holiday time.

NYX matte bronzer in Light: I've never been a bronzer type of girl cause I'm really pale, but this one has a nice color that I can actually wear. I think it compares to the Too Faced milk chocolate bronzer, but it's onle $9!

MAC blush in Pink Swoon: I've rediscovered this blush since it was at the back of the drawer and I totally forgot about it. It looks kind of scary and intimidating but I promise it's not that pink when you swatch it (if you actually want to see that, watch my video).

I hope you all liked my favorites, and I wish you all a very happy new year!!! :)

See you in 2014, xoxo

Nail of the day - Bobbing For Baubles by Essie

Today I want to show you one of my current favorite nail polishes. This is Bobbing For Baubles by Essie and it's a lovely navy color, as you can see in the picture. I really like wearing it and I think it looks very classy. It also compliments really well my pale skin, but I'm sure it'd also look amazing on darker skin tones.

Hoy os quiero enseñar uno de mis pintauñas favoritos del momento. Este es Bobbing For Baubles de Essie y es un color azul marino muy bonito, como podéis ver en la foto. Me gusta mucho llevarlo y creo que queda muy elegante. Además, queda muy bien con mi piel súper blanca, aunque estoy segura que también queda genial en pieles más oscuras.

This one came out a couple years ago, but After School Boy Blazer is a very similar navy and it's from their newer winter collection, so if you can't find the one I'm showing, that one is pretty close (although a bit more dark).

Este salió hace un par de años, pero After School Boy Blazer es un azul marino muy parecido y es de la nueva colección de invierno, así que si no encontráis este, el otro es casi lo mismo (aunque un poco más oscuro).

xoxo
