Tarte maneater palette vol 2:  $9.99 @ Showcase (RSP:  $39)

This was sold out the last time, and it didn't look like they had any this time.  Luckily I asked because they had a ton in the back!

They're still on the official website for $25 so this is a great deal!  None of the other ones are as deeply clearanced so I wonder why this one is.  I hope they have something else as good in the future!

Gel glitter eye mask:  $3.50 @ Dollarama
Garnier fructis sky hi volume mousse:  $2.99 @ Shopper's drug mart (RSP:  $6.49)

The mask was more than I wanted to pay, but I just loved it!  I couldn't find it cheaper online either, so I came back for it.  The ones online were around $10 each.


Polaroid - light up cat ear headphones:  $5 each @ Urban Planet (RSP:  $19.99+ each)

I kind of wish I waited on buying the pink one!  I think I probably could have gotten it for this cheap if I had...all of the rest were still there.

Oh well.  I couldn't resist buying one of each type at that price!  I left one white one behind.

Unicorn pencil pouch:  $3
Lori blender sponge:  $2.50
Baby lips:  $2 each (RSP:  $3.96 each)

All @ Dollarama

I didn't really want to pay that much for one sponge, but the ones I bought were taking too long to come.  It has good reviews, so we'll see how it goes.

There are a ton of other baby lips that have been found by other people, but this is the first time I've seen them around here!  I'll pick up any others I find.

Sinful colours nail polish:  $1.99
Peony candle:  $1.44 (RSP:  $5)
Maybelline extreme wear quads in chocolate and mocha:  $1.94 each (RSP:  ~$10 each)

All @ Superstore.

I used my points too, so it was mostly free!  

Even though the eyeshadows are similar to the ones I have, I just wanted to try out the formula.  They claim to last for 12 hours!

Mermaid brushes (RSP:  $8.99 each)
Double brush (RSP:  $7.99)

$1 each @ Urban planet.

They also had some Christmas mugs and other beauty stuff for that price.

Panda aroma diffuser:  $18 @ Urban Planet (RSP:  $59.99)

I saw this go for 40% off right away, but that was still too expensive for me.  I ended up getting it for 70% off and that was just right.

I see them on aliexpress for $24, so this was just a bit cheaper.  Shipping was much faster too.

It works pretty well and looks adorable!  I've wanted a diffuser for a long time, but the other ones are boring and expensive.

Essence nail polishes:  $1.69 each @ Shopper's drug mart (RSP:  $2.99 each)

These were being cleared out so they were on sale.  Not all of the shades were this price..there was a beautiful pink I would have loved to have!

Essence smokey eye-shadow in espress-oh:  $2.29 @ Shopper's drug mart (RSP:  $3.99)
Sinful colours unicorns r real nail polish:  $1.97 @ Walmart

Just some impulse buys!  I also bought an elf contour brush for $3.59 off well.ca.  It's $8 everywhere else!

Essence smokey eye pencil:  $2.29 (RSP:  $3.99)
Essence kajal pencil in teddy:  $1.19 (RSP:  $1.99)
Essence extreme lasting eye pencil:  $2.29 (RSP:  $3.99)

All @ Shopper's drug mart.

Also got a white kajal pencil for $1.19 previously.  It seems like these items are being clearanced, but I've seen different selections at different locations.

Elf lip kiss balm in flirty & perky pink (RSP:  $2.97)
Elf lip kiss balm in bare kiss (RSP:  $2.97)
Lipstick organizer

$1.25 each @ Dollar tree

I saw these last time but assumed they would be bad.  Reviews were great though, so I went back for them.

Hello kitty ceramic mug with lid:  $5 off Kijiji.

New in box!


I saw they're on aliexpress for over $20.


Mine is the one in the top middle.  It looks better from the back!

The ones with pictures look weird too.  I think a solid colour would have been better.


2 clear acrylic drawers
Elf flawless eyeshadow in tantalizing taupe (RSP:  $2.97)
Elf finishing powder in ivory (RSP:  $2.97)

$1.25 each @ Dollar tree.

They had a ton more elf stuff this time!  I might buy more next time.

Hello kitty Mon amour brush set:  $15 @ Craigslist (RSP:  $59)

No box, but the seller said everything was unused.

I would have been happier paying $10, but I really wanted it!  I've seen the cup alone for $26 so it seemed like an OK deal.

Rimmel quad eyeshadows:  $1 each @ Bianca Amor's (RSP:  $6 each)

I assumed these had to be sort of old since they ended up here.  They still looked OK, plus I loved the union jack design!

I really had to control myself to just get these ones!  They had around 20 types.

Their regular price was $2, which was already pretty good.


Clear table top mirror:  $4
Gems:  $1.25

Both @ Dollarama.

I've admired that mirror for a while, but I never had a place for it.

Now I do so it's mine!  I added lights to it:


Love how it turned out!

Hello kitty Mon amour palette:  $10 (RSP:  $42)

I bought this off of Craigslist.  The seller said it had only been swatches, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten it.

It is 6 years old though!  I thought I could just use the palette to hold other eyeshadows if it doesn't work out.

It has a mirror on the inside:


I saw that it went on sale for $21, which I might have paid if I was into makeup at the time.

Some people got it for $12!!  That would totally have been worth it.

Wet n wild eyeliner in "baby got black":  $1.50 @ Dollarama (RSP:  $1.99)

I remember these used to be a dollar, so I held off  on getting this.  Turns out they're $2 everywhere else so I went back and got this one!

The reviews are good, plus it's almost twice as long as most other pencils that are around twice the price or more.

Elf blush in glow (RSP:  $2.97)


Elf bronzer in warm tan (RSP:  $2.97)

Both $1.25 each @ Dollar Tree

They've had a ton of elf products recently so it was hard to resist.  Most of them have horrible reviews, but the powders seem to be ok.  They're only $2 in the US!

Other things they had was lipstick, eyeliner, facial whip, lip balm tint, oil blotting papers, and  a lip gloss pencil.  They all have terrible reviews, and most only retailed for a dollar anyway!

They also had some makeup brushes which have good reviews, but they were ordinary brushes I didn't need.  Plus, they're ugly compared to the ones I already have!

3D scented hand soap pumps:  $4.50 each (RSP:  $9.99 each)


Spiral notebook:  $3.15 (RSP:  $6.99)



Hardcover notebooks:  $2.15 each (RSP:  $12.99 each)

All @ Urban Planet

They had free shipping too, so it was even better!  Otherwise I wouldn't have gotten the soaps.  I thought they were cute, but a bit more than I wanted to pay.  If I had to go collect them I wouldn't have bothered.
