My reading blog addiction.

I am a serious blog addict, especially since I discovered Bloglovin' and I started adding all my lovely blogs, and following some more... and more... and more.

Nowadays, I have unfollowed some of these, which stopped blogging all together, or who didn't blog about anything that interested me anymore. But I am currently following:

  • 1 Editorial blog (Fashion Rogue, I totally recommend it, does give some awesome ideas, but it blogs way too much for me to catch up, so I put it in a category of it's own so that I could read it separately from the rest.)
  • 6 fashion blogs (I know, right? Not ENOUGH, I'll have to look out for more.)
  • 15 cooking blogs (I'm a sucker for lovely cupcakes and simple recipes, although I don't usually recreate them at home or anything, but.. just in case, you know.)
  • 22 makeup blogs (Were you even doubting it?)
  • 16 unrelated blogs (lifestyle, personal blogs, etc.)
  • 13 photography blogs.
And that adds up to... 73 blogs.
I did warn you about my addiction. 
Hopefully, in time I will be able to lower this number by unfollowing those who I like the least, but it's so complicated sometimes to choose between them!
If you're a blog addict just as I am, please let me know what blogs you're following,
because maybe we can swap and you may be interested in some of mine!


Últimamente estoy siguiendo muchos blogs, hoy además, he decidido buscar por categorías, sin referencias de nadie, y gracias a Bloglovin' puedo seguir todos estos blogs, ¡y más!
Además, los divido en categorías: editoriales (1), moda (6), cocina (15), maquillaje (22), otros temas (16) y fotografía (13). En total, ¡SIGO 73 BLOGS!
Intentaré quitar parte de estos según vea que me van interesando más o menos sus entradas. 
Si sois adictos a leer blogs, y tenéis alguno que recomendarme, dejadme un comentario con vuestras sugerencias, e intentaré responder con algunas que os puedan gustar también a vosotros.

Maria.

About me.

I hope you don't think I am too self-centered, but I think it's important for you to know a little about me before you start reading about my makeup ravings.

My name is Maria, and I live in Elche, on the south-east of Spain.
(This was in New York, and it's not a makeup related picture, as you can see.)

I am 18 years old, and I'm a college student. I study tourism and enterprise administration (CEO) in the University of Alicante. This wasn't the career I intended to have, as my dream was to study photography in New York. But as many of you might already know, American colleges aren't exactly what you'd call inexpensive, and it was unaffordable for my parents to pay it. I won't give up on my dream though, I still take pictures every once in a while. Check my Flickr page if you want to see some of them.

My interest in makeup goes back to my childhood, when I used to take my mother's lipsticks and use them to paint my lips, my hair, my eyes... I was quite a creative little girl! (And my mother didn't like too much this aspect of my creativity. She even had to use bleach sometimes. Oh my!) When I was 13 years-old I started buying my own (cheap) makeup, and I started saving money for better products.
Since I am a student, I haven't got too much money available for buying makeup, but I have learnt to use all of it to buy many goodies!

Thank you for hearing me out, and letting me go on about myself.
Won't happen too often, I swear!

Maria.
