April showers bring May Flowers…and I’m so excited for the warmer months! Aren’t you?
Today I’m super excited to partner with PEOPLE magazine to tell you some of my Spring essentials- these must-haves not only will help you reveal a fresh look for spring, but also will become your favorites.
Y ya con la primavera acá, se acercan los meses calientes...¿quién más esta emocionada por aquí?
Yo hoy estoy muy contenta de unirme a la revista PEOPLE para contarles algunos de mis favoritos para esta temporada- que te ayudaran a tener un look muy fresco esta Primavera y se convertirán en tus favoritos también (¡¡búsquenme en la revista People de este mes!!)
Yo no pude esperar y planifiqué un viaje a México, y como pueden ver...me traje estos 10 favoritos conmigo. Empecemos.
1. Flawlessly Smooth legs with Gillette Venus Swirl:
Before ditching your tights and getting into cute dresses (or a bikini if you are on vacation), the first step is to remove hair!. Gillette Venus reached out to try the Swirl; and I recommend it 100%. It glides easily over tricky areas like knees and ankles…making shaving easy and quick!
Antes de darles un descanso a tus pantalones y empezar a usar vestidos frescos (o un bikini si estás de vacaciones como yo), el primer paso es deshacernos de ese vello tan fastidioso. Gillete Venus me contactó para probar la hojilla "Swirl" y se las recomiendo al 10)%. Se desliza muy fácil es areas difíciles como las rodillas y los tobillos.
2. Cute Maxi dresses:
Maxi dresses are flattering and so easy to wear. You can wear them with a denim jacket or a light jacket for those days that are still a little chilly. If you are traveling to a tropical destination, you can wear a maxi dress over your cute bikini with flats….and then change into cute wedges for a romantic sunset dinner.
A mi me encantan los vestidos largos...son tán cómodos y fáciles de usar. Puedes usarlos con una chaqueta delgada (como de mezcilla) en esos días que todavía refresca un poco. Si vas a viajar a un destino tropical, los vestidos maxi son perfectos sobre tu bikini con zapatos bajitos...y luego puedes cambiarte a cuñas para una cena romántica a la orilla de la playa.
3. Waterproof mascara- Maybelline Lash Sensational Luscious Full Fan Effect
Since I was a little girl, I always get compliments on my lashes…and I have to admit I love having long full lashes…and always enhancing them with a little mascara. During the warmer months, I like keeping my makeup to the minimum: bb cream with SPF, blush, and waterproof mascara. I really like Maybelline’s Lash Sensational Luscious Full Fan Effect, the waterproof version comes in two shades. It gives me a lot of length and value, making my eyes pop and I don’t have to worry about smudging when laying by the ocean.
Desde muy pequeña, siempre me han dado cumplidos sobre mis pestañas...y tengo que admitir que me encanta realzarlas con mucha pero mucha mascara. En los meses calientes, intento mantener mi maquillaje al mínimo: bb cream con protección solar, un poco de rubor, y mascara a prueba de agua. En este viaje he estado usando Maybelline’s Lash Sensational Luscious Full Fan Effect. La versión "Waterproof" viene en dos tonos. Me gusta mucho porque me da volumen en las pestañas sin tener que preocuparme de que se me vaya a correr cuando me doy un chapuzón en el mar.
4. Sunscreen
Spring means spending more time at the park, enjoying the nice weather, and bbqs with friends…this means you shouldn’t forget to apply sunscreen. If you are spending a lot of time at the beach, applying sunscreen (and reapplying throughout the day) is very important. Always go for at least SPF30 and don’t forget to apply it in forgotten spots like ears, scalp, and tops of your feet.
5. L’Oreal Paris Extraordinary Oil shampoo system- for soft, lustrous hair:
My hair is very curly and dry…if you are like me, you know that Spring showers mean dry, frizzy hair. After just one use of the L’Oreal Extraordinary Oil Shampoo System, my hair felt silky and smooth; it is made with luscious, lightweight oils like coconut, argan, chamomile, amla, soja, and sunflower. It also makes it easier to style (which is especially great during this time of the year, leaving more time for outdoor fun!). I have to say that the Extraordinary Oil Lustrous Serum was a savior…I used it a lot on my trip to Mexico because the pool and sand made my hair so dry!
6. A bright color on your fingers and toes:
Go for an unexpected shade this Spring. If you always wear nude colors, go for a bright pink. If you are more of a burgundy nail polish type of girl, try a turquoise shade. To match my cute bikinis in Mexico, I tried some pastel shades.
Esta temporada, arriésgate a usar un color diferente para primavera. Si siempre usas colores nude, usa un rosa vibrante...si te gustan los tonos oscuros, ¿por que no probar un turquesa?
7. Lucky Brand Gladiator sandals- available at DSW
A great transition to a warm weather wardrobe is a good gladiator in tan! These strappy sandals from Lucky Brand are so chic and they complement any Spring/Summer outfit. Did I mention they are leather? <3 the quality is incredible. The pair looks great with jean shorts and an off-the-shoulder top; or a paisley print maxi dress with a wide boho hat.
8. Wide brim Panama hat
Me and my love for hats. For fall and winter, I go for felt black hats…but for warmer months, my favorite style is still a good wide brim Panama Hat; they look so chic while protecting you from the sun.
9. POND’S Rejuveness Anti-Wrinkle Cream- for hydrated skin:
After a long day in the sun (with SPF, of course!), your skin needs some love! At night, after washing my face and before going to sleep, I like using the POND’S Rejuveness Anti-Wrinkle Cream; it’s formulated with alpha hydroxy acids, collagen, and vitamin E, leaving skin looking healthy, nourished and glowing (while reducing the appearance of fine lines). I also got the smaller size which is perfect for traveling.
10. Fun sunglasses:
A spring/summer outfit is not complete without a cool pair of sunnies. My current favorite style is round sunglasses; but don’t be afraid to play with different and styles.
Los outfits de verano no están completos sin lentes de sol divertidos. En este momento, mi estilo favorito son los lentes de sol redondos...¡pero atrévete a usar diferentes estilos y colores!
