Getting ready for Cancun haul

Hello lovelies!
I just realized that I have less than a month left until I go to Cancun!

I have most of my stuff ready, like swimsuits, toiletries, and clothes. I still need  luggage, comfy sandals, a backpack and one of those u-shaped pillows for the plane. I still need to get in shape, I have a bit of back fat that I would like to get rid of before I go, so I have been working out to the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred, I like the results I'm seeing, especially on my butt xD.

One of the places we want to visit are asking us to use biodegradable sunscreen. I didn't even know that kind of sunscreen existed. Let me tell you it's not cheap! Like $17 dlls for less than 3oz. I can get my coppertone for like $3 for about the same amount. I feel robbed even though I haven't purchased it yet.

I have purchased some clothes, and finally my last bikini arrived!

My tie dye bikini from victorias secret pink
this top is from dELIA*s I loved the pastel colors
From dELIA*s as well

 
I saw this and I had to get it! I love mean girls, but I don't know if i'm actually going to take it.

 Bandeaus from  victoria's secret pink
These Shorts are from Forever21, they were only $8!
I bought these a long time ago, they are also from victorias secret pink
These two makeup bags from Forever21
The makeup bags have to fit all of these!
This pullover is from Forever21, but the in the picture looks so weird, in real life is super pretty.
 This has to be the most interesting thing I've bought, a waterproof camera!

To be honest I was a bit worried to take my good camera to Cancun, because we're basically going to be in the water most of the time, I didn't want to sacrifice not having pictures at all. I didn't want to take a disposable camera, because you never know how your pictures will turn out. Also didn't want to spend too much on a new camera, so I found this camera pretty cheap at target! it was $80 but it came with a $10 gift card, so basically it only cost me $70. Best thing is that it came with the case and the floatable strap, it might not be super fancy but it does what it is suppose to do. I tested it out yesterday at the pool, and it worked pretty well. The water didn't leak inside. Here is one of the pictures I took.

Girls Day Out- Comic Con (picture heavy)

Hello lovelies!

As some of you know this weekend is Comic Con took place this weekend here in San Diego. Although we didn't have tickets to go to the event itself, my friends and I decided to go and hang around the Convention Center to see people in costumes (and see if we could snag freebies). My boyfriend did go to Comic Con on Friday, we won his ticket in a raffle (so lucky!) so I will also share the pictures he took. I apologize if these pictures are a bit crappy, but they were taken with my phone.
don't mind my finger
They even had this hello kitty booth, they were selling stuff from an upcoming collection, they even had a nail art booth. As we were walking away Hello Kitty came out and we took picture with her!


They even gave us these paper crowns. By the way that guy in the background looks like he is with us, but we don't even know him, he photo bombed us! I just hate when that happens.
 Anyways here is the brochure with the products of the upcoming collection.

Then we went to see a like a 10 minute preview of the movie "Gravity", then we walked around more and asked people in costumes to take pictures with them.

This is "El Chapulin Colorado" it's a mexican superheroe, but the character is just the typical super heroe, I remembered how much I loved the show when I was a child. 
Hobbiton made out of legos!


The Gaslamp was closed to traffic, and super busy! that's pretty much everything we over then, Then we went to eat and have few drinks at a placed called "Gaslamp Tavern" it was delicious. Afterwards we went to "Extraordinary Desserts" they only sell desserts and they are just too pretty to eat!
We couldn't even finish them because we were just too full.
So here are photos my boyfriend took. Even I included some pictures of my boyfriend because then people might believe I stole them from someone's facebook or something.
It's McLovin from superbad! he looks so different now.

Geo Princess Mimi Apple Green Review

Hey guys!
Long time no reviewing lenses, but today I want to talk about these which I've had them for a couple months now. I can't even remember where I bought them from, but since they are super popular you shouldn't have trouble finding them.

These lenses were designed by popular Gyaru model Tsubasa Masuwaka, in Japan they are sold under the "Angel Color" and it's a bit different in diameter than the ones sold under "Geo Medical"

Origin: Korea
Diameter: 15.00
Basecurve: 8.7
Water Content: 38%
Lifespan:  1 Year

Comfort ♥♥♥♡♡  They are comfortable, I can't feel them, but after about 3 hours of wear my eyes start becoming  dry. My eyes are small and have a tendency to be dry so I doesn't help that these are big.

Color ♥♥♥♥♡ I love the green color, It's not too bright, and blends super well into my brown eyes because of the yellow dots near the pupil. They make me look super dolly and give this pretty shiny look! I prefer more natural looking lenses, and by no means these are natural looking.

Enlargement ♥♥♥♥♡ Well it's 15.00 mm plus they have a very think black ring, so they defiantly look larger than a 15.00 mm

Overall ♥♥♥♥♡ If these were available in a slightly smaller diameter they would be perfect.
How they look on me

Vacation Plans

Hey guys!
I'm sorry I haven't been posting anything too interesting, I've both busy and feeling lazy lately.  I seriously have no inspiration to do anything lately.

Anyways, a few posts ago I mentioned about going on a vacation. Well it almost didn't happen. We were supposed to travel with some friends, but little by little all of them ditched us. In the end, nobody wanted to go.

Even my boyfriend said he didn't want to go because no one else was going. It made me super upset, because we had been talking for months about going on  a vacation this summer, and to me it seemed unfair that our friends were ruining our plans.Then my boyfriend changed his mind, and last week we booked our hotel and flight to Cancun!

I'm excited for obvious reasons, we have never seen beaches with white sand and turquoise water. They tell me that Caribbean water are always warm. The beaches here in California always cold, and just not as beautiful as the ones in Cancun.

Anyways, we have been thinking of places and things to do there and it is so overwhelming. These are a few of the things I'd love to see and do over there, of course our time and $$$ is limited so, we are not doing everything.
Obvious beach day

So since I need to save for spending money over there, I don't think I'm going to shop too much, I need summery chill clothes to wear over there because I have none, so that's all I'm buying for clothes. I still need to buy luggage,  bug repellent, and  biodegradable sunscreen. Some of the places we want to go are asking to use this kind of sunscreen. Seriously, I don't even want to think of the stuff I have to buy because anymore, the more I think, the more I seem to need more stuff.
