*I wrote this post as part of my participation in a blog tour for Latina Mom Bloggers on behalf of ZYRTEC® ALLERGY FACE® and received compensation to thank me for taking the time to participate. However, all opinions expressed are my own. I normally wear disposable contacts when I am not at home. This past week, my allergies have been wreaking havoc on my eyes and I had to wear my glasses because they were itchy, watery, and scratchy. I am not a happy camper because I love donning my sunglasses during the warm weather months and this whole allergy situation is totally cramping my style. Don't even get me started on some of my other allergy symptoms including constantly sneezing, spontaneous red blotches on my skin, and a post-nasal drip.

Look Good And Feel Good Despite #ALLERGYFACE This Spring! #ZYRTEC #Ad
*This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Zyrtec and Latina Bloggers Connect. All opinions are 100% mine. It's ironic that I was going to write this post today because I am suffering terribly from allergies this week. My allergies came on in full force around Wednesday afternoon with a variety of the usual symptoms including a scratchy throat, a stuffy nose, and itchy and watery eyes.
