Places to go: Wynwood walls - Miami

I fell in love with this place. It reminds me of New York (my favorite place in the world). This is a Williamsburg-ish kind of place. Art everywhere and little restaurants with boho style people everywhere. Not that many tourists. Loved the quotes on the sidewalk. If you like something different than drinking and partying this is the place to go. To write, to get inspiration. 

On the same block I found this Italian restaurant. The customer service was perfect and the food was divine. It is called "Joey's".... All I can say if you love fillet Mignon and your dessert of choice is chocolate you will find what you need.

What I'm wearing:

Betsey Johnson dress. Bought it years ago. Back to when Betsey did amazing big dresses. Is black Jean with a zipper on the front.

Shoes are Schutz shoes. Burgundy booties with peep toe and a zipper as well. I love this brand, they are not cheap but I love how comfortable the heels are. 

I send you my love,

Tip tuesday: Tired eyes.

Yesterday I saw this picture. If you are a person who wears makeup everyday or even if you don't and you feel you have tired eyes, concealer is the way to go. Let's put it this way if I was on an island I would go with my Nars radiant creamy concealer and my "better than sex" mascara and let the sun be my bronzer and blush.

If you have dark under eyes use a corrector first with peach or orange undertones just to color correct and then on top of that use a skin color concealer and you'll be good to go.
If you want the highlighted undereye look, grab your favorite concealer but in a few shades lighter and blend the edges with the same brush you used for your foundation. Always remember if you everything is blended your makeup will automatically be better. So blend until you have no harsh lines.

If you love the natural look then just use two dots of your concealer on the inner corner of the eye and let the warmth of your fingers melt the product on your skin and it will open up your eyes, even if you don't feel awake, you'll look more awake. 

Hope this was helpful my loves,

With love,

Motivation Monday: Detox your skin, enjoy your morning and do what you love.

Everyday you get a chance to do what you love, that's the motivational part of this blog today. I'm not always doing what I love but whatever I'm doing is always taking me closer to it. Whatever becomes "not my thing" but nevertheless the means to and end. That way when I get frustrated that I work the weekends I remember that I'm doing it for a reason, you just have to find "your reason". Mine is makeup and image consulting ... Start this Monday asking yourself : what do I love to do? And more importantly... Why the hell I'm not doing it ! 

Don't let your skin hate you, I'm a control freak and Monday for me is a starting over kind of day even when my week do not start today. As you guys know I wear makeup everyday and to prevent breakouts or to stop the ones I have I pamper myself with this amazing mask from Lush Cosmetics, it's called: Mask of magnaminty and I swear they have a unicorn crying to create this thing. Reduces pores, dries out breakouts, and cleanses your skin acting as an exfoliator too. 

The book is a part of what my learning process is...and the tea is just me loving my body. It is all about the LOVE you have towards you. Don't get old and say I wish I would've done that. Today is the day. 

I'm a makeup artist and image consultant. I'm doing what I love every day. What are you doing ?.

With passion,

Jordana Vargas
