These are the three items I've been loving for the past few weeks.

Another make up product I've been loving is the MAC Fluidline eyeliner in the color Blacktrack. It is perfect for an everyday make-up look. It is very easy to apply, I like to use this Straight liner brush by Sephora and it works so well! It gives you a very natural look and I think  it is really great.

Hi there!
Lately I was thinking about trying to post some cooking entries. I enjoy cooking from time to time so I thought that whenever I feel like sharing with you a recipe it would be a great idea to do it.
During the last month I have become a huge fan of smoothies. They are sooooo good. Besides they are quite healthy and easy to do.
I like to do them with bananas and strawberries.

BANANA AND NUTS SMOOTHIE

To prepare this smoothie you will need:

INGREDIENTS:
- 1 or 2 bananas
- 30g of peeled nuts
- 1 yogurt
-10g of chocolate (optional)
- ice (optional)

You will need a blender and that is everything

METHOD:
You just need to put everything in the blender and mix it until everything is even and there are not any lumps in the mix.





Once you have completed that you can take some straws and it's ready to drink. The thing about smoothies is that they are very equilibrated as you should put some nuts, yogurt and fruits. That's why they are the perfect breakfast. They will give you the energy you need for the day!

Today I wanted to share with you my updated daily make-up routine. It has been so long since the last one I did. There are a few products that I have changed since my last one and I think it is a good time to share it with you.

For an everyday make-up I do not tend to do a dramatic make-up look. I just like to do it in a glowy and natural way.


To start with my make up I use these products. Lately I've been using the Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation in the Shade 102 Light Nude. It is quite great. It doesn't have a matte finish but I feel that this dewy finish fits me so much better in this time of the year. Then the concealer that I have been using is the Rimmel Wake me up, which is my all time favorite concealer. I just love it... Unfortunately I have finished it and I can not buy it here in Spain because they do not sell it... To finish with my skin I like to add a little bit of color to my cheeks with the All Day MAC pro longwear blush and I apply it with the Real Techniques multi task brush. To apply the foundation and the concealer I use this sponge.
Moving on to my eyes, for an everyday look I just tend to do quite a natural eye look. For that I use the Naked Basics palette by Urban Decay and I cannot explain how much I love this palette. It is perfect. You can use the first color named Venus (which is the only one with shimmer) as a highlighter, then the second one, Foxy, to set everything in its place, and the two at the end, Naked2 and Crave to fill in your eyebrows. Moreover it gives you the perfect look for your eyes and they last so much. Besides, it has the perfect size, you can take it with you everywhere you go! Then I set my eyebrows in place with the Maybelline Brow drama in the shade medium brown. And for eyeliner I have been using the Maybelline Master Precise liquid eyeliner. Finally to apply my eye shadows I mostly use these two brushes: the Real Techniques Domed shadow brush and the Sephora Crease Shadow brush.
I forgot to put it in the picture but the mascara that I am currently using is the Vibra-perfection (out of stock)
Finally what I apply in my lips is some lipbalm, currently I am using the Carmex one which is great and when I use lipstick I usually wear Velvet Teddy by MAC which I am obsessed with. To highlight I use this cream color base in the shade pearl by MAC.

This past week I was going through a lack of inspiration kind of moment. I had a couple of cool posts ideas but the inspiration to accomplish them didn't come so yes, I was not inspired.
It may sound quite ironic but the lack of inspiration is what have inspired me to write this today.
Inspiration is something that has to come to you. You can not force it. Although it is also true that you can do certain things to help your mind get some ideas or sthg. So what I am going to talk about today is what do I do to get some inspiration.

First I like to relax and play some peaceful music. Then I usually have a cup of tea, right now I am OBSESSED with Yorkshire tea. It is delicious... After that I just lay in bed and clear my mind...

On the other hand, if I am not very busy I would usually go for a walk or even going to an art exposition or gallery is quite a good idea. There are a couple of places in Madrid that inspire me quite a lot. They are the Madrid down town. From Tribunal metro station to Sol, and also the area around El Barrio de Salamanca. But if I really want to look for ideas and at the same time go see some art I would go to El Matadero which is an art expositions area... It is quite cool and alternative, in comparison with the rest of museums.

And finally another idea that works quite well for me is to bake something. I quite enjoy baking cakes and cupcakes. So when I am feeling stressed it is a great idea to bake something. And if you are in the creative mood, go and decorate it, use your imagination and that way you will forget about everything for a couple of hours and your will definitely clear your mind completely...

So that is mainly everything I like to do when I am not feeling very inspired and my thoughts are blocked (if that makes any sense). It is a different kind of post I hope you liked it and to end this I leave you a song by Florence + the machine. This band is just great and it is perfect for the situation I just described. I hope you liked it.
