My 20 Favorite Cruelty-free Products Of 2020 (Part 2: Makeup)

Hi guys! Yesterday I talked about my top 10 skincare, body and hair products of the year, and now it’s time to talk about my favourite part: makeup! Many of us used quarantine to get better and more creative with makeup, while others left it aside because face masks turned it into a nightmare. And I completely understand! I also struggled with it sometimes. But I learnt to find comfort and routine in doing my makeup every now on then, even if I was going to take it off 15 minutes after taking the photos. The way we approach it has changed so much and the products have consequently adapted to our needs… and so have my favourites of the year!

My 20 Favourite Cruelty-free Products of 2020! (Part 1: Skincare, Hair and Body)

Hi guys and merry (late) Christmas! I hadn’t had the chance to say it yet. It’s been a really busy month with Blogmas, studies and planning (a really weird) gifts and small family gatherings, but it’s finally time I do my favourites of the year. I will be separating them in two posts, in which I’ll mention my 10 favourites for skincare, bath and hair; and then my 10 favourites for makeup. My 20 favourite cruelty-free products of the year, then. This one’s to ending 2020 the right way!

Blogmas Day 11: Then vs Now / Día 11: Antes y Ahora

Blogmas Day 11: Then vs Now / Día 11: Antes y Ahora

English

Hi guys! And welcome to my 11th post of Blogmas. To some of you, this title might sound a bit bizarre. It’s a bit personal, actually, and definitely up for interpretation. But for me it has a more specific meaning: nearlycrispi recently proposed a challenge with three prizes to redo one of our older looks and see how we’d do. I liked the idea very much; aside from the fact that she was the hosting the giveaway (and yesterday I found out I won one of the prizes!), I think it’s a good way to see how far we’ve come and to test ourselves. I re-did an eyelook from 2018, one of my favorites to date back then. Keep reading to see the change!

Lo que sabemos sobre la colección de maquillaje de My Chemical Romance (y cómo conseguirla en España)

En las últimas horas, los siempre crípticos My Chemical Romance han roto su eterno silencio (casi tan eterno como su ruptura) para ofrecer a sus fans un teaser de una rosa ardiendo con Give ‘Em Hell, Kid de fondo. Aunque muchos, y me incluyo, nos emocionamos demasiado rápido pensando que se podía tratar de nueva música, la realidad no va a decepcionar a las y los amantes del maquillaje. HipDot, los creadores de maquillaje cruelty-free y vegano que han traído colecciones como la de la artista Kesha, son los encargada de revivir su obra Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge.

En este post te contaré todo lo que sabemos sobre la colección: swatches, horarios aproximados, y cómo enviarla a España (ya que la página no envía directamente).

Hi guys and welcome to the 9th day of Blogmas! If you’re anything like me, you’re probably looking for nail and makeup ideas for Christmas already. I follow so many talented artists on Instagram, including nail artists and specialists, so I’ve been saving inspiration for the day I got my nails done with one of my closest friends, who is so skilled as well.

Hi guys! It’s the sixth day of Blogmas. For the past few days, we’ve talked about movies, books, music… and now it’s time to talk about memories! I made this day’s topic a bit ambiguous in the title because I wanted it to be up to everybody. If you’d rather talk about childhood memories, last year’s memories, an event you remember… you can do it.

Cruelty-free Beauty Gifts Guide 2020: Christmas Present Ideas

Halloween‘s over, Black Friday is coming up, and guess what… Christmas is right around the corner! Two years ago, I wrote a post about cruelty-free Christmas gifts ideas and some of you seemed to enjoy it, so I thought, why not do it again this year? This time, I will be talking about specific brands and products that I’m also interested in buying myself, so this could also be described as a Christmas wishlist. I believe there’s something for everyone: surprise boxes, affordable faux mink lashes, small businesses who deserve so much love (now more than ever) and obviously, advent calendars.

Base True Skin Hydrating Foundation – Catrice (Reseña + Test de 10 horas y mascarilla)

¡Buenos días, chicas! Ha pasado bastante tiempo desde la última vez que hablé sobre bases de maquillaje. Tanto, que este será el primer review que incluya un “test de mascarilla”. La verdad es que estaba intentando terminar las que ya tenía antes de comprar una nueva, pero no me pude resistir a la nueva base hidratante Catrice, True Skin. Pero es que a ver, ¿una base vegana y sin crueldad animal con ácido hialurónico? ¿Ahora que “winter is coming“? ¡Me apunto! Hoy la pondré a prueba durante 10 horas, algunas de las cuales pasé con mascarilla, y os daré mi opinión final. ¡Sigue leyendo para saber más!
