Shiseido Warehouse Sale!!

Thanks to Missmicchan, my sister and I were able to pick up a whole loot of stuff from the Shiseido warehouse sale today! There is still another day of sale ongoing from 9am-3pm tomorrow (Sunday), so if you have time, go check it out! (address at the end of the post). Everything is from 25-60% retail price. There was such a long line up when we arrived at 10am (sorry forgot to take photo of the massive asian population all waiting anxiously in the cloudy weather)! It took us 2 hours to get inside and when we were inside it felt like china town (minus the bargaining). We've never encountered so many uneducated, bawny chinese women with their equally as rude husbands. Some women did not even understand the use of the products and still grabbed as many as possible. It's as if, whenever there is a sale, ajummas are the first ones to rush to the scene. It got so ridiculous, that before some lady paid for her goods, she pointed to her eyelashes and asked me in her broken English if she was holding mascara... O_O. Yes madame, it says so on the label, and if you are not aware of the use of the product why did you ask the SA for it?!. Some lady also grabbed 10+ Shiseido cleansing foam thinking it was moisturizer - maybe she thought she was getting a deal since it was so cheap. I'm not sure if she realized her mistake, but she put some on her hand to test and it started to foam... =P

Most of the items were geared towards Shiseido skincare products with limited palettes/single eyeshadows available from NARS. I wanted to pick up some Orlane skincare but that would have burned a nonrecoverable hole in my wallet. I would definitely recommend going to this sale if you are a fan of any of the Shiseido skincare lines, which are about 30-40% off. Their lipsticks/lipglosses were at least 50% off retail prices. I also saw a lot of people picking up litres and litres of hair shampoo/conditioner but I did not recognize the brand name. I picked up Joico Silk Result shampoo, a brand I've never tried to test out since it seems really popular among other people's purchases.

And now... the goods my sister and I collectively hauled (plus another Nars palette I forgot to photograph):




I'll try to put together a swatch/review post but there is a LOT of products I have to go through...I'm also too scared to look at the receipt....

The address of the sale is:

303 Allstate Parkway, Markham -- east of Woodbine.

Have a relaxing Sunday! Or not if you are planning to go to the sale =P

Oh.. ma.. ged. HOLY MOLY missy~ you went crazy!! SO niceeeeee =D So going to wait on your page and keep refreshing to see if you update hahaha!
Damn.. if I had the money right now, patience and a ride I would totally bust my way in there too haha! Though I'd have to take a lesson or two on anger management perhaps.. because I don't think I'd be able to contain my urge to probably slap the lights out of some of those older asian ladies. I can see it now.. the shoving.. the grab-all-you-can type people -___-' sigh*
