Beauty Blogger Meet Up On Guam!
Featuring Me (Shar),
Cheysser, Shantee & Kay. M.I.A. Maggie, there's always next time honey!
My weekend started a bit early this week. Usually im off on Thursdays, but I asked to switch to Friday for my cousin's wedding. So Thursday night after work, Cheysser, Shantee & I met up with Kay. We had dinner at Tony Roma's. Which was so much fun, I honestly never thought i'd meet anyone from blogger personally (the ones I know dont count). Just because no one really knows where/what Guam is (it's a U.S. Territory). Anyways, She was really sweet, verrry prettty & easy to get along with! We walked and looked around the Duty Free Shop, did a bit of a haul, actually i bought only ONE ITEM! Woohoo! Im finally learning to control. Haha! That's because the time went by so fast, I wish we had more time but she was pretty tired & she had to get up early the next day. So we finished around 11 pm.

I don't have a legit picture of what i wore on my eyes. But i'll list it down.
Face:
MAC Prep+Prime Refined Zone
Chanel Mat Lumiere Foundation in Intense Naturel 50
MAC Select Sheer Pressed NC35
CS 28 Neutral Palette for blush
Eyes:
MAC Blackgound PP
MAC Carbon ES *Base
NYX Sahara *Crease
MAC Solar White ES *Highlight
MAC Blacktrack FL
Lips:
Carmex - I love this stuff!
Sephora Gloss Ultra Brilliance #20

Ugh! My glasses hid it.

Kay & I before dinner. She's so Kawaii!

LOL! We ended up ordering the same thing. BABYBACK RIBS!


In front of the Lancome counter at DFS. Shantee, Cheysser, Kay & Me.


Bachelor/ette Party!
Party over here, whoop whoop! Party over there whoop whoop! LOL.
This was the same night we had the meet up, and if you read carefully up there then you know we ended a little later than planned. I couldnt change my makeup and that's why you'll see that it was kind of faded. I really wanted to do the look I did on the last fotd posted but again time was of the essence. Moving on.
LOL! To avoid any drama, we decided to stick together. Boys & Girls. We celebrated by barhopping! I love going out with my cousins. First, we went to Magic Styx, a pretty popular pool hall on Guam. We stayed for about an hour, and had some drinks.


After that, we went to check out a new club called Club 7 deuce, but when we got there, cops filled the parking lot. A fight probably broke out. I was disappointed coz I really wanted to watch the "skin to win" contest. Also known as an amateuer strip contest, where all they win is $300, that is cheeeapp! But hey they gotta hustle!
Instead we got to go to a nearby karaoke bar. That's where we had the most fun. Our family lovesss to sing. So we enjoyed each others awesome voices : ) We sang love songs to the soon to be married couple. It was so sweet. haha
My babe & I. He's a little tipsy, just the way I like it.

The bartender making our B52's. Yummmayy!

Kahlua, Bailey's & Bacardi 151, with a fireball. Drink it from the bottom up with a straw. So you get the soothing Kahlua & Bailey's right before the abrupt kick of the 151. It burned so good! Haha. Unfortunately the fire didnt show up on the picture it was pretty.

Right before we made our alkie faces. haha.

Getting ready to shoot at the same time and Midori sour as my chaser.

I was getting scared LOL!

Bottoms up!

The bartender put a little too much of that 151.

I was like morrrre haha!

We took up the whole bar.

My brother singing "Bed of Roses".

My cousin Jason, feeling the song haha.

The groom, yelling his lungs out. He plays too much rockband, haha.



Porte - Marquez Wedding / fotd

Since no one is allowed to look better than the bride I did a neutral look for myself. I was happy with the way it turned out. The lashes gave the look that extra oomph!





Face:
Chanel Mat Lumiere in Intense Naturel 50
MAC HK Tahitian Sand Beauty Powder
MAC Mineralized Skin Finish in Light Flush
CS 28 Neutral Palette as Blush
Eyes:
Urban Decay Primer Potion
Coastal Scents 28 Neutral ES Palette
MAC Blacktrack FL
False Lashes
Lips:

Janet, Me & Maryanne. Alot of our other cousins are M.I.A. because they had to work : (

Maryanne & Shar

During the ceremony
Weddings make me cry, but I was trying hard not to because my makeup.




After the ceremony
Mr. & Mrs. Kristian & Joanna Marquez with the brides parents & brother.

Not all of us were there.

The boys.

Haulage!
So I got a few goodies from Kei. She gave me these yummmy hello kitty candies. And a nail polish in a reaaally cute shade of pink. The bag it came in was so cute so I had to include it in the picture.

I've always been so skeptical about using false lashes coz I can never put them on nicely/natural looking. Even though i've watch youtube tutorials and practiced practiced practiced, I cant get the hang of it until NOW! I know, gosh! Better late than never. My cousin Maryanne wanted to go to the discount store and she convinced me to get them and im glad she did. They work just as good, if not better, than MAC's lashes. The best part is, they're so cheap. $1. I also got the DUO lash adhesive, oil blotting papers and this cute flower hair ornament that I wore to the ceremony. And the "one item" I bought that night with the girlies was the MAC 275 brush. All I need to complete my eye brushes is the 212. Then i'll move on to the face brushes that I dont have yet.

Anyways, stay tuned for the next post. I gotta catch up with the taggs that i've been getting. Sorry guys! I promise i'll get to it. Till then ladies!

night out, notw, collective haul

Dinner w/ bf & Night out with the Cousins

Over the weekend the boyfriend and I out went out with my cousins on my mom's side.

Friday night he took me out to dinner at Pietro (italian restaurant). We havent eaten there for a while so it was so good!



Are you slobbering yet!? haha


After dinner we met up with my cousins to watch movies: crank high voltage. Most of them thought it sucked but it was hella funny! So after the movies we went to magic styx to shoot pool, I initially didnt want to go coz I had work the next day so I only had on eyeliner and lipgloss but they were all going and I didnt wna miss out so I was only supposed to stay for thirty minutes or so coz I had work the next day but we ended up leaving at two thirty. waking up the next morning was a bitch! anyways, here's some pic from that night.

Saturday night we had dinner with my boyfriend's family at a chinese restaurant for his dad's 53rd birthday. After rhat we went to a karaoke bar called "Gud Taym" haha. Everytime we go there we have a good time. LOL. I had fun, even if some one my cousin's didnt show up. They were tired so it's okay. Anyway I had on simple eye makeup that night (simple smoky eye), because my glasses would just cover them up anyway.

Me & the boyfriend. I was feeling the song.

Meon was reeeaally feeling the song. haha

Will & Marvin, they drank ALOT.

N.O.T.W.
leopard print. The base color is Antique Sparkle by nyx. It's kinda blurry but you get the gist.

Collective Haul
So I got me a bunch of nyx nail polishes for five dollars each.
from left to right: wild, glittery, sweetheart, strawberry & lime sparkle

before we went to the karaoke bar, we went to dfs and sephora was having a seventy percent off sale. but it was already late and all the good things were gone. but I did get to get this lip gloss set, it was originally $51 minus 70% was $15. I also used my employee discount and got an additional 20% off so the total became $12 some. this was a steal!


I also got this makeup vanity bag. This was originally $52 minus 70% = $15 minus my discount it totaled $12 some also. I was happy coz the lipgloss set and this bag could've easily been $100. But i only spent $24.48 for the both of it. Yayyyyy

I didint take a picture of it yet but I also finally got the 242 brush. woohoo!
Anyways, im thinking of selling some of my makeup that I either never used yet, only swatched or used it only once. So stayed tuned for my nexr post. till then ladies!
p.s. thanks to donnarence (check out her blog) for linking me to get my signature done. I love it!
