Review on Brooklyn Botany Himalayan Salt Scrub

Hi guys, 

Happy Thursday! 

Today's post, I will be giving you guys my review on this product I tried. So I received this Brooklyn Botany Himalayan Salt Scrub through JoinPalm. I have tried other salt scrubs and familiar with what they do but this brand is new to me. This company was founded and created in New York. They carry vegan and natural products and are cruelty-free. Their products range from a variety of body products such as scrubs, shampoos, oils, serums and even carry candles. 








I am specifically trying out this Himalayan Salt Scrub. This scrub can be used for body and face, specifically to exfoliate your skin. This will get rid of dead skin cells and dullness in the skin to bring your skin back to life. 


List of Ingredients: 
  • Sodium Chloride
  • Sweet Almond Oil
  • Seed Oil
  • Jojoba Seed Oil
  • Lychee Fruit Oil
  • Vitamin E 
  • Aloe Vera Leaf Juice 
So, I've been using it every time I shower and exfoliate my legs and my arms. I also use it on my chest and neck area. This has been useful because sometimes when I use foundation I bring my foundation down to my neck and this scrub exfoliates to remove access makeup I left behind. It leaves my skin feeling so smooth and it feels like a new layer of skin has appeared. I've been really liking it and the scrub feels so silky, with minimal scent which I love. Hopefully you likes like this review and find it helpful. 

Thank you @joinpalm and @brooklynbotany for the scrub. 

Until next time......... Xoxo

Trying out Misfit Wearables Vapor 2 Smartwatch

So, you guys know I'm all about working out and trying to keep a healthy lifestyle for myself and my family and trying to stay active is key. Well, I've been trying this new Misfit wearable Vapor 2 Smartwatch to stay active and keep track of my steps.  This has been my source for staying connected and on the go. 


This brand is  MISFIT WEARABLES, it's a global brand and is original and unique. Each watch is detailed and made to perfection. The item I received was super comfortable and really stylish which is key to me. I don't like wearing bulky watches. It came with a pocket protector, which comes in handy when you travel and you need to carry your smartwatch around. Also, it has two interchangeable bands. 




 A quick overview of my Vapor 2: 
  • a very fashionable and functional smartwatch that can carry you throughout your day, from the moment you wake up, to when you’re working out, to then going out to dinner or drinks at a nice restaurant.
  • kept me on track with my fitness goals 
  • Plays my music directly from my phone, it has a wifi connection and Bluetooth capability 
  • the sleek design is so functional and on trend 
  • monitored my heart rate during my extream workouts 
  • sent my smartphone notifications directly to my watch 

I've been wearing it for two weeks straight and has now won a place in my heart. I don't leave home without it especially when I workout. 

Overall, this smartwatch is a pretty awesome gadget. It's everything you are looking for in a watch and more. Thank you @joinpalm and @misfitwearables for sending me this amazing little gadget. 
Until next time............... Xoxo

Boating around in Style!

This past weekend we decided to rent an electric boat and ride along the Newport Beach Peninsula. It was so much fun and it was all about creating memories with the kids. Our kids loved it so much and had fun "driving" the boat with hubby's guidance of course. 


The weather was perfect and timing too. We left the marina around 4:30 pm and rode around for an hour and a half. During our tour, I enjoyed a nice glass of wine, kids and hubby snacked on some cheese, and crackers, nuts, grapes, and strawberries. It was definitely a great experience and the kids had zero complaints. It was a little chilly but the sun made it all better. 




We've done this tour a while ago with a group of friends but this time we decided to take the kids. I recommend getting a Groupon instead for a better deal and calling ahead of time to make a reservation. We booked last minute through Newport Fun Tours


Depending on time, I recommend taking a lightweight blanket, snacks and a camera to capture some amazing views of the ocean.

Spring is Here !

I mean, literally Spring started last week but here in LA, CA it didn't feel like spring. We had rain throughout the week and finally, it cleared up. We started to see the sun and this week is going to be pretty amazing with clear skies, or so we think. 

I wanted to share with you this amazing dress from Shein. I love how it's fitted at the top with the puffed up sleeves and the length is just perfect. Seriously, my fave dress for Spring so far. I started organizing my closet and bringing more dress towards the front of my closet because I know summer is just around the corner. I went thru so many pieces of clothing, and realized where did they come from? I knew to make space in my closet, I needed to get rid of pieces but it's so hard to let go of an item. I have such a difficult time, who can relate??

US Movie Screening

This week, I was invited to attend a private screening for the US. I saw the trailer and I was hesitant to go because I don't watch horror movies that much but I decided to attend either way and was able to take my friend, which is always a plus. 

@USMovie 
#usmovie 
#watchyourself

Of course, we knew this event was going to be in LA so we made plans to leave a couple hours early but with LA traffic we arrived a little late of course. We were greeted with tickets to redeem for popcorn and a drink, a gifting table, which included hoodies with "US" imprinted and scissors on the side of the sleeve. 


We also had a chance to enjoy the cocktail hour. They had beer and wine of course but also had two signature drinks made especially for the event. One was "The Tethered" and the second drink was "I got 5 on it", which both have a meaning in the film.


From there we hit up the photobooth and mingled until it was time to go inside the theater. We were one of the last to go in and had the pleasure of seating front row, but it's okay, it was all good. We saw the film with no problem and enjoyed it. 

My opinion of the film: It's a good movie but it had its moments of confusion and mystery. I did jump out of my seat a couple times. It has a plot twist so be ready..... I rate the film an 8 out of 10 stars. 

Overall, thank you @HM_Comms @UniversalPictures for having us. It was a pleasure and we enjoyed our time! Remeber, film comes out in Theaters today, March 22, 2019! 

Until next time.............. Xoxo

Moroccan Magic Lip Balms

Hi guys, Happy Tuesday! 

I wanted to share a little secret of how I keep my lips hydrated and super moisturized during spring. Because I wear a lot of lip stains, sometimes the lips tend to get dry or chapped and lately, I've been wearing my Moroccan Magic lip balm all day, every day. I use it overnight or during my morning routine. I wash my face and after that I prep my skin and then apply my lip balm, my current favorite is the Lavender Vanilla balm. This smells amazing and it applies smoothly on my lips. I leave it on and then when I'm ready to apply lipstick or a lip stain, I apply it on top and it makes my lips feel and look hydrated. 

Using Lavender Vanilla flavor 

Seriously, this lip balm is amazing and I love the flavors. The ingredients are Argan Oil, Essential Oils, Vitamin E, Beeswax and of course the flavors they carry, Rose, Lavender Vanilla, Coconut Almond, Peppermint Eucalyptus & Lemon Thyme. 

Hopefully, you check them out and let me know which is your favorite flavor? 


Until next time............ Xoxo

Private Dinner with Cast of El Desconocido 2

This week, I had the pleasure of attending a private dinner at Candela La Brea Restaurant to meet the cast of El Desconocido 2 hosted by Cine Latino and H+M Communications. This dinner was amazing and so well put together. We were able to meet the cast, which they were all so sweet and amazing. We also had the chance to meet other influencers/bloggers and people in the entertainment industry.

Guys, the food was really good as well. We were greeted with our choice of drink (water, white or red wine, or a beer), a salad and our main entree. It was either chicken or salmon with rice and veggies and the best part was the dessert bar. Gosh, dessert!!!! We had vanilla ice cream, with a churro and your topping of choice: caramel, chocolate or strawberry syrup. The dessert was definitely a hit for everyone. 









With the fabulous cast and crew of the show.
The second season premieres on March 17, 2019, 8 pm, PST (check local listings) on CineLatino.

Super Soft ft. Wohven Tees

Wearing Style: 2018-April by William Finch 

This past weekend was amazing and it was well worth it. I love spending time with my family and creating memories. We traveled to Arizona for my son's baseball tournament and to catch some during Angel's Spring Training. I love the fact that we are able to do this as a family but traveling with kids isn't easy. I made sure I packed comfortable clothes for them because they are kids and the last thing that I need is my kids complaining about the clothes. 

 All three kids wearing style 2019-January by Kevin Kroneberger


Thanks to Wohven for gifting us with these super comfortable t-shirts. The kids loved them and enjoyed the graphic design on it. The material they use on their shirts are a mix of cotton and polyester but it's a soft blend of polyester which was super soft. 

Make sure you check out Wohven for details on their tees and their monthly subscriptions.

Unapologetic !

Happy Monday everyone!! 

Hopefully, you guys had a great weekend, my weekend was amazing as always but now I'm exhausted. We went to Disneyland yesterday and now, I'm feeling it this morning. But seriously, I love Disney and always have so much fun! We celebrated my sister's birthday and my early birthday, and I'm lucky I'm able to share these experiences with my daughters and sister. 

But before that, on Saturday, I wanted to show you guys how I styled this amazing top from Shein. It was definitely sexy and super low cut. I loved it and had to step out of my comfort zone for sure. I loved the sleeves and the beads all over the front of the top. So I styled it with a pair of mom jeans and honestly, it was super comfortable but dressy. 

What do you guys think?
