@carolinacaro.mx

Naye con vestido verde

@nayelopez_style

Ayelen con un vestido rosa

@m.ayelen.lucero

Clau con arbol de navidad

@makeupbyclau_r


"Fashion for me is who represents me outside in whatever I want to be before society, but not who defines me inside."

Nathis sonriendo con arbol de navidad

@nathismolina


"Hello! I am Nathalie Molina, better known as Nani, I am 21 years old, I am a Venezuelan in Argentina. Since I was a child, the Barbie designer game made me dream, although I did not have so many clothes...I saw that this is where we can all draw our talent ! I love fashion because it exploits your creativity. I only ask you, never stop believing in yourself. ❤️ "

Carol en vestido verde

@carolcolladom


"My name is Carolina Medina. I am Dominican and I am passionate about life and its challenges. From an early age, my interest in fashion was awakened; I love fashion because it allows me to express myself as I am. One of the things that most I like fashion is that every day it surprises us. It breaks its own rules, speaks without you having to open your mouth and is subjective."

Lorena con vestido negro y blanco

@ricolealorena


"Hello, my name is Lorena Rico and I am Mexican at heart, body and soul. I consider myself a very happy, passionate and authentic person. I have always loved fashion since with it we can play with our tastes and with trends, show who we are through it; and something that I really love about fashion is that it changes in the blink of an eye and that makes us get out of our comfort zone. Without a doubt, fashion is my passion and I love being part of her."

"Fashion is being ourselves. From those tastes and personalities, the outfits that come out, become a trend. It is to express yourself in the clothes and accessories, what you think and feel."

Julieta en una cropped top y botas negras

@julietariveros1


"My name is Julieta Riveros, I am from Cordoba Argentina, I am 22 years old and I have been working as a model since I was 13. I started in this world very young, and from day one I love this profession and fashion! What I like the most about it, It is its constant renovation and transformation, it never becomes boring or monotonous because new ideas of colors, fabrics and designs are always presented to play and combine outfits. Another thing that I like the most about fashion is the adaptation of society to her, because although it is usually something “imposed”, people can always adapt by expressing their tastes, personality and comfort adding their unique touch."

Brenda con su familia

@brenda_yamil


"I am Brenda. I am a mother, wife, model, and physical therapist. I love fashion because it is a way by which we can express our personality without saying a word. Fashion is power."

5 Reasons why Latinas should try Korean skincare products

5 reasons why Latinas should try Korean skincare products 

by Maria Lopez

Korean Products

Growing up as a latina woman, I struggled with stress acne especially in high school. During my senior year, I found an interest in Korean Culture and found one common trait with (in) everything I watched. They had perfectly clear skin! So, I started to research what products they used for myself.


To my surprise, my stress acne was gone! It’s been almost six years since I switched to using Korean skincare. Their products gave me a flawless look without using makeup and boosted my confidence in life. 


You may ask yourself why people are jumping onto this trend. More importantly, why should you? Here are the 5 reasons I think you should.

1. All about healthy skin

Hydrating, nourishing and repairing your skin with enhanced skin features, and giving you a youthful-looking glow are just some of the effects you can get from Korean skincare.


The Korean skincare industry is dedicated to giving women and men a nourished skin look as well as effortlessly perfect look at all times with or without makeup. They believe that skincare comes first and makeup comes second.


Through my skincare journey, I found it's about dedication and time investment. People in South Korea use three or even more types of moisturizers and cleansers a day to achieve their healthy skin. This may seem a bit exaggerated for those unfamiliar with extensive skin care routines, but one thing for sure is that it always gives you the results you want.

 Cosrx One Step Moisture Up Pad maximizes hydration that lasts all day, replenishes skin's naturally healthy look by removing dead skin cells.

2. All Natural Ingredients

After months of researching various ingredients used in both Korean and non-Korean skincare products, only the Korean ones actually use what they claim to be. Here are two examples of many.

3. All About Prevention 

The philosophy of Korea skincare products  also focus on prevention rather than just treatment. They believe that getting to the root of the skin's problems leads to longer-lasting results. For instance, before you get pimples, you should use formulas that prevent pimples; before getting wrinkles, use products, such as face masks and moisturizers that help revitalize the skin.

4. Technology and Innovation 

The skincare industry in South Korea knows that both the local and global markets not only have soaring demands for high-quality products, but also have increasing knowledge about the products and their effectiveness as well as international competitors.

In order to keep their customers, they can only continue to increase their standards for product quality to achieve the best skincare results with innovative technology . Thanks to South Korea, we can now enjoy skin capsules, sheet masks, pimple patches, and eye masks globally.

5. Value for your money 

As compared to other skincare products out there in the market, Korean skincare is one that values results for every penny spent. You'll be impressed by how inexpensive Korean products are while giving you long lasting results.

Cómo controlar tu ansiedad en tiempos de COVID-19

Cómo controlar tu ansiedad en tiempos de COVID-19

Es cierto que la rutina de todos ha cambiado desde la aparición del COVID-19 y en medio de todas las distracciones, es necesario recordar que el cuidado de nuestra salud mental sigue siendo indispensable y posiblemente mucho más importante durante estos días. Ya que una de las principales recomendaciones es permanecer en casa, esto puede ser el sueño de muchos, trabajar de casa, disfrutar más a los niños, o tener un poco más de tiempo para cocinar. Para otras personas este tiempo también puede traer consigo mucha ansiedad. Aquí están algunos consejos para reducir tu ansiedad en tiempos de COVID-19:

1. Tratar de mantener una rutina sana.

Para ello, los expertos recomiendan seguir poniendo el despertador como si fuera un día normal de trabajo. Suena difícil, pero esto ayudará a tu mente a mantener el orden y te recordará que la vida debe continuar y no debemos dejarnos caer.

2. Ducharse e hidratar la piel por las mañanas. 

Las duchas siempre sirven para despertar nuestros sentidos y si se toma por las mañanas, esto ayudará a preparar tu mente para un nuevo dia sintiendote presto y positivo.

3. Quitate la pijama y vístete como si fuera un día normal!

Esto sin duda te motivará cada que te veas al espejo. De esta manera, no sentirás esa necesidad de acostarte a mitad del dia, y asi tambien estaras lista para recibir las llamadas por FaceTime de tus amigos.

4. Establece un horario de trabajo y escribe tus metas del día.

Si es que tienes que trabajar o estudiar de casa, es importante tener todo bajo control y no tomar estos días como vacaciones. Para ello es muy importante tener metas claras durante el día y un horario específico para cumplirlas. Un buen consejo es tener un pizarrón donde puedas escribir y visualizar tus metas enfrente de tu escritorio.

5. Haz deporte dentro de casa.

En estos tiempos, es muy importante evitar el sedentarismo, para ello puedes hacer citas con tus amigos y fijar un horario para hacer zumba o yoga por videollamada. No es necesario tanta tecnología, también puedes bailar por tu cuenta o hacer el ejercicio de tu elección con solo buscar videos en YouTube. Que este tiempo en casa no pase desapercibido, aprovecha el tiempo y consigue ese cuerpo que siempre has querido.

We well know that when we feel beautiful, we also feel that we can face any challenge. The same goes for the work area. In these uncertain and rapidly changing times, many of us have been asked to work from home. That is why we think that it is time to transform your home office to a place that inspires you and motives you to remain focused and productive. 

1. Add colors that will help you focus and eliminate anxiety​​​

Here are 3 tips

to transform your workspace

 into a perfect and stimulating place.

Experts recommend to decorate your workspace with colors as blue, purple, white and green. Decorating your workspace with these colors will surely help you calm down and focus on your tasks.

2. Get yourself some plants!

Plants are the perfect decoration for your office, room, or desk and their benefits are unmatched. Plants clean the environment, produce fresh oxygen and help reduce stress. If you want to make your life a little easier, you can also add a couple of artificial plants that will also look divine but without the benefits that a natural plant can offer you, of course.

3. Visualize your goals

Sure you know that organization is the best strategy to have high productivity, but, have you tried writing your tasks and have them near you in case you need a kindly reminder? You can add notes to a cute cork board, which by the way look amazing! Add a few motivational notes, some pictures, and you are ready to go!
