Craving some Pizza?! La Puttanesca Trattoria

Hey dolls!!
The weekend is just around the corner and you know what that means right?  Some nap time, Netflix and then finding a good place to eat at night.  Today I want to talk to you about a place I went to eat a few days ago.  This was not my first time I've been there quite a few times since a friend recommended the place, but this time we decided to order something different and I though why not share the pizza love with my followers?
Do you love pizza?? I know I do!  This place is called La Puttanesca Trattoria.  The pizzeria is located in the San Juan Metro Area, its a small and cozy place with very affordable prices and delicious food.  Super known pizzeria in the area with lots of colorful art on the walls, great service and 80's & 90's music vibe all the time. Once you try it, you will not want to visit anywhere else. Their wood oven gives it that special classic taste pizzerias in New York. Small, excellent space when looking for a pleasant time. Craving some wine? No problem!! They sell everything from sodas, draft beers, wine and delicious sangrias.  Their menu is full of variety including Calzones, huge slices of pizza, burgers, wings, garlic knots and mozzarella sticks which are some of the most sought snacks. 
Take a look below at some of the food we ordered and how the local looks!
Enjoy!





Pizza is Half BBQ Chicken which has bbq sauce, chicken and ricotta cheese, the other half is called "La Trans" which includes pepperoni, italian sausage, chorizo and bacon! 





Bonne Apettite!!

Summer at Play!



Hello Dolls!!
Happy 1st of July!!! Summer is finally here and that means it’s time to talk summer makeup trends. If you live in Puerto Rico you know the temperatures have been pretty high.   Therefore, I've tried to keep looks and make up simple and fresh.  We also know summer is all about vivid colors but is safe to say the natural “no makeup, just pretty skin” look stays strong from spring into summer. Let’s take a look at some of the other summer makeup trends for 2015.

Mary Kay At Play Shadow - Liners
One key trend for eyes is colorful eyeshadow, with shades of purple dominating the color palette for summer. To get the look, try Mary Kay At Play® Shadow & Liner ($13 each) in Iced Lilac. The Mary Kay At Play® Shadow & Liners feature four expertly-paired shades for rich, true color payoff to intensify your eyes. The Liner defines while Shadow enhances…for an eye-catching look you’ll love. To use, apply shadow directly to lid and blend using fingertips or brush.  Next apply liner to lash line to define eyes. These ultra-creamy, ultra-gorgeous shadows and liners have a smooth glide over the eye area. Other available shades include Rebel Rose, Mint To Be and Caramellow.
Mary Kay Mineral Cheek Duo
A pretty blush is a must-have for me, regardless of the trend. This season’s look for cheeks is a rosy colored blush. The Mary Kay Mineral Cheek Color Duo ($18) features a gorgeous matte blush and a complementary pearlized shade. I love the Ripe Watermelon Duo, which is a bright pink shade; other shades available include Juicy Guava, which is a coral shade and Spiced Poppy. These products have a Mineral Formula and were designed to provide rich, vibrant color in a single brush sweep. Apply the blush shade to the apple of your cheek and then the pearlized shade right above for a “lift” effect.
Mary Kay Lip - Cheek Stick
 A key trend for lips this summer is a bright lipstain.  The Mary Kay At Play®  Lip & Cheek Stick ($10 each) in  Peach Pop, which is coral and looks amazing on sunkissed skin and gives a gorgeous look to lips (or cheeks!). Works double duty for a glowing blush and a picture-perfect pout. The other shade is Razzlebbery which a pretty berry flush look to lips and cheeks.  These Lip & Cheek Sticks have a super-soft, creamy texture, with excellent pigmentation and a semi-matte finish. They’re blendable and buildable; you can be as subtle or bold as you like.  On cheeks, you can apply to bare skin or over foundation, BB/CC cream for a natural glow.

Another one of my favorites is the Mary Kay at Play Jelly Lip Glosses.  These colorful and vibrant glosses come in 5 different shades.  My favorites being Violet Vixen and Poppy Love.  This glosses do not leave a sticky feeling on your lips and make for an easy way to put some fun color on your lips on the go. 

Like I said before I always strive for a casual, carefree makeup style during summer. It’s been fun to discover these Mary Kay products and how they work into summer makeup trends. You can find the products I’ve been using online at marykay.com or through an independent beauty consultant. Have you discovered what you love for summer makeup?

Current Night Time Beauty Routine

Hey Dolls!!

Hope you are all doing fine.  So, we all love make up, clothes and pretty stuff. However is important to be aware that the most important part of your beauty regimen is your skin care.  Remember, makeup only hides imperfections and flaws in our faces, however when you use the right skincare regimen you actually can get ride of those imperfections instead of just covering them up.  We always hear "don't go to bed with your make up on".  But lets face it, we all have done it at least once!!  Theres a series of stuff we need to do to our skin every day to keep it young and healthy.  We need to cleanse, exfoliate, protect and hydrate on a daily basis.  

Im here to show you my night time beauty routine and explain to you what it has done for my skin.

Enjoy!!


1. TimeWise 3-In-1 Cleanser (normal/dry)

Ok so this cleanser is part of the Mary Kay Timewise line.  Every MK product with the word Timewise on it has 11 anti-aging ingredients that go straight into your skin every time you use it.  You may think, Im young I don't need anti-aging products but THATS where your wrong!!  Now its the time to take care of your skin preventing fine line and wrinkles!  TimeWise® cleansing products combine anti-aging ingredients with three essential functions in one product to cleanse, exfoliate and freshen - revealing younger-looking skin.  This cleanser has gentle cleansing beads that removes dry skin cells trough exfoliation.  The formula reduces fine lines and wrinkles by accelerating the skin's natural renewal process. 

2. TimeWise Night Solution

This solution is amazing and it leave your skin soft and refresh.  What it does is that stimulates collagen to smooth and firm the skin.  We start to loose collagen between age 20 and 30!! I know!! But this vitamin solution helps you absorb peptides that makes your body to produce collagen every day. It's unique delivery system of encapsulated vitamins and antioxidants combined with collagen-enhancing peptides help fade away deep lines and wrinkles. A grea thing about it is that it is Oil-free, I use it every night before going to bed and right after I wash my face. 

3. TimeWise Age-Figthing Moisturizer 

This emollient-rich lotion combines the action of 10 hours of hydration to accelerate the skin's natural

 renewal process, leaving you with firmer, smoother skin with fewer lines and wrinkles.



As you know  have very sensitive skin and this line has done wonders for my face.  If you see my face you can tell is more radiant, glowing and soft just after a few uses.  This line is also very much
recommended and suitable for people with rosacea helping treat this condition.  One great detail is that 
all of this products are fragrance free, great for sensitive skin, Dermatologist- tested, clinically tested for
 skin irritancy and allergy,  hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic meaning that wont clog your pores.  You can also find them for Combination to Oily Skin which are also very refreshing and soothing to your skin.  Also the brand has a Day Time Solution (which I also use) that is full of vitamins and more importantly SPF35 which protects your skin not only from the sun but also from white UV light, which are the one in offices, phone and computer screens.
