A Letter From Carmen

Hey everyone,

Do you ever feel like you need to look pretty for others — or even for yourself? Maybe it’s because some people make you feel like you have to fit into their idea of what “pretty” is. But here’s the truth: their opinions don’t define you. Pretty isn’t one specific thing someone made up — it’s about how you feel inside and out. You are amazing just as you are, and you don’t need anyone’s approval to slay every day.

Take care of yourself for you because you deserve it. Self-care isn’t about changing who you are; it’s about celebrating yourself and feeling your best. I love practicing self-care and sharing it with my mom and friends — it’s empowering, fun, and a reminder of how awesome it feels to take time for yourself. I hope this book gives you that same feeling.

Skincare and makeup are tools to enhance your confidence and let your inner glow shine. They’re fun, creative, and when you use gentle, healthy products, they’re great for your skin too. My routine is simple: moisturizer, SPF, and sometimes a serum like alpha arbutin twice a week. Healthy ingredients are key — you want to protect your natural glow, not cover it up with harsh chemicals!

If you’re just starting out, focus on the basics and start with a small routine like mine. Once you’re comfortable, you can branch out with products like blush, brow gel, or mascara. The goal is to experiment in a way that feels fun and empowering while embracing your natural beauty.

To the moms reading this:

• If you’re on the fence, don’t worry — skincare and makeup are safe when done right, and they can help kids feel more confident in themselves. Makeup is just face art; it doesn’t change who your kids are!

• If you’re a mom who already encourages your kids to explore while teaching them to feel comfortable in their own skin, thank you. That balance makes all the difference.

Taking care of yourself doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. Everything I recommend is affordable, effective, and even safe enough to eat! Why not invest in yourself and make your glow unstoppable? These recipes and tips aren’t just about looking great — they’ll have people asking for your secrets while giving you the tools to celebrate your unique beauty.

Finally, the most important thing is to stay confident. If someone tries to bring you down, remember this: by not reacting, you’ve already won. Let them get stuck in their negativity while you rise above it, glowing with self-assurance. You are unstoppable, and this book is here to help you embrace every bit of your awesomeness.

So slay every day — you’ve got this!
