Spring Break = Liberation

I could not be any happier that its spring vacation. It feels so wonderful to be on a break, a definite time to distress. I’m not much of a traveler during spring break. During this free time I  accomplish major cleaning, catch up on blog stuff, relax and of course hit the beach.

The weather in Puerto Rico has been beyond perfect, so I decided to go for a stroll in the park. Holding onto my distressful and relaxing vibes I wore a very casual outfit and ZERO makeup. It feels so freeing when your makeup free. I feel as if my face can actually breathe. My outfit was very simple, it basically consisted of denim shorts, a t-shirt, sunnies and comfy sandals.  This entire look defined my spring liberation.

What have you been up to this spring break?

Be Lovely,

Charlene Gonzalez

Macy’s Beauty Happy Hour

In recognition of their 15th anniversary, Macys Puerto Rico held a “Beauty Happy Hour” exclusively for bloggers. Macy’s showcased the newest products from top brands Dior, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Nejma Parfums and Bobbi Brown. For each brand there was a spokesperson who offered details on each line.

Directly from California representing Anastasia Beverly Hills was their account executive Alicia Sanchez. Alicia is a sweetheart; she gave my eyebrows a perfect makeover and presented all of Anastasias newest products including their famously known contour kits.

For Nejma Parfums, straight from France was Nejma’s general manager Elisa Mariotti. Nejma has a collection of perfumes inspired by an arab love story about a forbidden romance between Nejma and a royal man. The collection of 7 fragrances represents the 7 daughters of Nejma. My favorite fragrance was #7.

Representing for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics was director of artistry and education Rogelio Reyna. It was an honor to meet Rogelio. He showed me Bobbi Browns multitasking makeup collection which is perfect for working women on the run who don’t have much time to apply makeup on.

Last but not least Dior presented me with a beautiful white rose in honor of the new collection Dior Prestige. Great music, delicious treats and presents were all part of my amazing evening. I’m very honored and thankful to have been invited to this exclusive beauty bash.

I want to also thank Gatsby for providing my entire outfit for this event! It was a very comfy, colorful and cute look.

Be Lovely,

Charlene Gonzalez
