L'oreal Warehouse Sale Haul

Well, i'm kind of late with this as the L'oreal warehouse sale has been going on since two weeks in Montreal. I'm lucky enough to get an invitation from friends or my mom's friend to be able to go each time. I always end up buying so much stuff that I barely use. But everytime I go there, I'm really excited for some reason. I went on friday afternoon and surprisingly there was no line at all! Usually, I have to wait for at least half an hour or so, it's not really fun waiting in the cold but people still bear it.

About the sale, each time they have different products and the prices are about 50% off retail prices. L'oreal and Maybeline products are especially really really cheap. Like for example: 1.25$ eye shadow, eye liner, blushes, lipsticks, foundation,etc. They also have Biotherm, Vichy, Kiehls as well as Lancome skin products.

As my favourite moisturizer isn't there this time anymore, I tried something new, the Vichy Normaderm Acne Prone Skin. It claims to "resorbs blemishes, tightens pores, evens out the complexion". I just hope I won't break out aha. I have acne prone skin and break out really really easily. The 50ml bottle costs me 6 bucks, no idea how it retails in stores. I thought it was pretty cheap and took a few to stock up aha.


l'oreal eyeshadows: $1.25 each, l'oreal black express eye liners: $1.25 each, Maybeline nail polishes: $1.50 each, Maybeline mineral blushes: $1.50 each, Biotherm biosensitive spring mist: $5.75, Kiehls tinted moisturizer $16, Vichy Normaderm $6 each. Vichy Bi-White Reveal: $18, LA ROCHE-POSAY - EFFACLAIR face wash - $7.75. too lazy to list the others!


Also I bought those L'oreal Hip Jelly Balms for 4$ each, i have an obsession with lipbalms, especially those in pots! This one smells really really good, is not sticky and not sparkly or too shiny either. I like it so far. Bought three of them, in case i keep losing them.



I always forget to take pictures inside the warehouse whenever I go because I'm always too excited once I got in, next time!

yay! so i still have time maybe LOL i hope not everything will be gone by the time i go... if i do go... i only got interested in la roche posay recently, their products have a lot of scientific stuff behind them... effaclar is apparently a good line for acne-prone, combination to oily skin, which is exactly me, hence i wanna try! :D do a review on your cleanser haha
