It’s April in New York City, and it feels like we’ve all been forced aboard a climatic roller coaster, with temperatures rising to the 70s one day only to plummet to the 30s the next.
Growing up in Puerto Rico, I spent many a childhood evening at my grandma’s house, watching the legendary TV personality Don Francisco on Sábado Gigante, a variety show that ran for five decades, finally coming to an end in September 2015, and clapping and singing along to the show’s unofficial theme song, a playfully naughty ditty, with the lyrics, “Así, Así, como mueve la colita” (which literally translates to, “Like this, like this, how you move your tail.”).
Our holiday gift coverage continues (’cause the party don’t stop over here!), and today’s installment is to, as Salt ‘n’ Pepa would put it, all the mighty, mighty good men out there.

The holidays are fast approaching, which means it’s time to take a cue from Santa and start reviewing the names on that “Nice” list — especially since, unlike the red-suited, full-bellied, white-bearded man, most of us don’t have a team of handy elves who can manufacture just about anything or a stable of reindeer to deliver these trinkets.
Earlier today, I stopped by Telemundo NY’s “Acceso Total” to showcase some amazing holiday gift ideas for beauty enthusiasts — everything from luxury makeup brushes and sonic facial cleansing brushes to picturesque eyeshadow palettes, body butter collections, rollerball fragrances, hair care kits, holiday-themed nail enamel sets, and a surprise-filled beauty advent calendar.
With only one week left until Thanksgiving, it’s officially time to kick off our Holiday Gift Guide spectacular!
How often do our purchases serve a purpose beyond our own enjoyment and satisfaction?
How many times have you heard the sonsonete (translation: the tireless repetition) of the post-shower hydration rule that, in order to achieve maximum moisture absorption, it’s critical to apply lotion or body oil to damp skin rather than waiting for it to be fully dry?
National Coffee Day may have come and gone (it was technically celebrated yesterday, on September 29th), but we believe in celebrating a nice Cup of Joe every day of the week!
