Perfumes, Nail Polish and Makeup!

So I have a train case filled with make up(half of which I rarely use), the top of my dresser is littered with pretty perfume bottles, a drawer also filled with fragrances and 3 large banker box sized bins 1 labeled "Body Care", the other "Nails" and the last "Hair Care".

If you have ever lived with a female you know potions and lotions of bottles claiming plastic surgery results, spritzs and sprays of all the scents from the floral to fruity and tons of others some not even in English! Boys ask us why we have so many but love when we use them!

Saying this I was walking to get my bus and had come across an amazing cosmetics place of all places inside Eglinton Station (Yonge and Eglinton). Upon coming in the homely appearance with its fold out tables and cardboard boxes filled with every color of nail polish you can imagine give off a "cosmetics might not be FDA" approved vibe. But I was wrong not only did it carry great brands but great prices.

 Upon further inspection inside the showcase contained multitudes of perfumes from Marc Jacobs and Calvin Klein to the lesser rated Madonna, Halle Barry and Adidas. All the perfumes were half off the ticketed price. Making them all very affordable.

Some others deals worth mentioning are the Iman and Dior Makeup that are DEEPLY discounted! (Example: Iman lipsticks $5 and Dior Lipsticks/Glosses $9)

3 piece Healing Gardens Gift Sets $5

5 for $25 dollar table included Adidas perfumes, SJP perfumes, 5 pack Elizabeth Arden nail polishes.

They also had Gwen Stefani 's "Harajuku Wicked Style Perfume Dolls" only $5.99. Amazing gift for any Tween or Teen!

The Sally Hansen nail polishes were $1.25 or 7 for $8. Love the pastels got these 4 pretty pastels.

Rimmel Eye Shadow Quads, mascaras and nail art pens are 3 for $10.


Sally Hansen lip infusion glosses and NYC eyelashes and pencils. 5 for $5.

Great place for gifts for other and lots for ME!

So today was the infamous 50% off sale in Value Village and I got a chance to hit up 3 of them but only picked up items at 2 of them.Value Village (Landsdowne and Bloor) was a bust due to it being really popular with all the hipsters in the neighborhood.

The first one is:

I went with my mom and dad to this one at 7:30am and was surprise to see that it was already buzzing! My mother walked away with 2 Eddie Bauer Jackets and a plaid wool caplet her total was around $30. my dad walked away with a cotton blazer, a leather jacket, a couple tops, some trousers and a pair of new Tommy Hilfiger Jeans with tags courtesy of me of course! His total was around $60

Here's what I got:



H&M Shawl

Chunky Knit Cardigan
 ($9.99 -  $4.99)

Vintage Dress with Leather

Overall Impression:
I go to this one with my mom, It's big and has great stuff. Although large it is much better when there isn't any sales. They have a great Jacket section and usually have lots of things with tags.
