Journey To Shoppers Drug Mart

I went for a walk today to the Shoppers Drug Mart near my workplace. They have a promotion this week where you receive 15,000 Shoppers Optimum Points when you spend $75 or more on cosmetics. That is a $25 reward. 

I couldn’t think of anything that I needed. This location has a beauty boutique that carries brands such as Dior, Smashbox, Benefit, Lancome, Clinique and L’Occitane. For months I have wanted to buy the Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream from L’Occitane, but it was never in stock. I don’t know how I got through the winter without it. I could have gone to the L’Occitane store, but I wanted to earn Optimum Points.

I looked around the store and I saw the Suede bags. I have been building up my points for a while to use towards a large purchase. What better idea than to buy a bag with my points. I got the idea when I read the post by Fabulously “Broke”… In the City about Suede bags at Shoppers Drug Mart. I had seen the bags for maybe a year or two, but I had never purchased one. They are also available at Winners.

My second obsession to bags is lip gloss. For some reason I am always on the prowl for a new shade, but I always end up getting the same colour in a different brand. In the morning I put Kiehl’s lip balm on my lips because they are dry. The following are the lip gloss that I carry in my bag:

-Stila Lip Glaze in Brown Sugar
-Dior Addict Ultra Gloss Reflect #817
-Benefit The Gloss Kiss Me
-Benefit Her Glossiness Where’s My Stylist?
-YSL Touche Brilliance Sparkling Touch for Lips #10

That does not include the Rosebud Salve that is always at the bottom of my bag. I can’t leave home without it. As well I also carry an extra lip balm if my outfit has a pocket.
