00:00This is why they don't bite Puerto Ricans often.
00:13A guest editor assignment for who, what, where?
00:17Could I lend my expertise to a series of fashion and beauty related questions?
00:23Sorry, I'm editing.
00:25I'll be back to you shortly.
00:29Always go subtle, spelled subtle wrong, subtle with the fragrances.
00:35I don't like overpowering perfumes, especially if you're going to go have a meal.
00:39I think it messes things up with all the senses.
00:43Beauty influences listen to moms.
00:47They always know.
00:49I spelled listen wrong.
00:50What is wrong with me?
00:52I'm not fired yet.
00:55My mom was a beauty queen.
00:57She still is very into beauty and makeup and just taking care of her skin.
01:02She's always been about beauty from within.
01:05She's like, you could be the most beautiful, but if there's nothing behind those eyes, nothing really comes out.
01:10You know, people won't be able to really see your beauty.
01:13I was more of a tomboy growing up, so I was crawling up and down trees.
01:17I have scars all over my legs.
01:20So now I'm like, I feel like I should have listened to my mom a little bit more.
01:25Not everything we see on social media is real, and I can't even believe I have to say that.
01:33We live in a world where people are constantly comparing themselves, and I wish people would stop believing that this
01:41is what I look like.
01:42I went through two hours of hair and makeup to look like this.
01:45So when you see an image of either a model or an influencer, they went through professional hair and makeup
01:53to look the way that they do.
01:54It happens to me sometimes.
01:55I'm like, you know, on a Sunday that I don't have hair and makeup, I'm like, oh, I feel a
02:00little off, and I do my makeup, and it doesn't look quite right.
02:02And then I go on Instagram, and I see all these beautiful people having vacations or whatever.
02:07I'm like, no, I think we should just all stop.
02:10Don't believe what you see in the interwebs.
02:14Braingest beauty trick.
02:20Preparation H.
02:23Preparation H, under your eyes.
02:25If you're traveling, if you're puffy, you just put a little bit under your eyes.
02:30It's an old drag queen secret, and it works.
02:34It actually works.
02:37Less is more and embrace you.
02:44Recently, I've just learned to kind of undercover instead of cover.
02:48So you kind of go in with bronzer as opposed to with concealer, and it just feels like you're wearing
02:54less makeup and feeling more comfortable with less.
02:57Another thing is my freckles.
03:00When I first started, everyone always, for some reason, covered my freckles, and it just feels like you already are
03:07wearing less makeup when you bring them out.
03:09So I had all these freckle pencils, and freckle pencils last longer.
03:14Use that as your lip liner.
03:16It won't move.
03:17It doesn't move.
03:17It's crazy.
03:18I think people need to stop buying expensive face tools.
03:22Ice your face.
03:24You have it in your fridge.
03:25Ice and preparation.
03:28Packing last minute.
03:29I got you.
03:31A bikini, even if it's winter.
03:34Always a bikini.
03:35A Puerto Rican girl always packs a bikini.
03:37In that moment, I realized style isn't just about what we wear, but how we express ourselves.
03:44Oh, did I save it?
03:46Whether it's about the season's trends or navigating life, my advice is simple.
03:53Dress for the life you want.
