This was part of the China Glaze Fall 2015 “The Great Outdoors” collection that was all about camping. There were many beautiful shades in the collection and I was happy to have found this at Winners (or Marshalls, I forget now!) in January.
China Glaze regularly sell for ~C$11 here and I got this for $6.
Since I skipped May’s accountability post, I’m lumping both months together. Let’s recap, in April, I was able to carry over $122.48. My combined budget for May and June was $100. So in total, I had $222.48 to play with. Let’s see how I did. First, let’s get the elephant in the room out of the way, I hauled BIG time in Japan:
But in the rule books of Low-Buys, out of country purchases do not count. I didn’t create the rules, I just follow them, mkay? 😉 But I did a lot of shopping at home too, especially prior to my trip…
I’m really back-logged with my posts as you can see, as this was meant to be posted before I left for vacation, but I didn’t have time to take photos. Ah well, better late than never! 😉
So I wasn’t really planning on doing much makeup shopping before my trip but I’ve been finding some AMAZING stuff at Winners! I just couldn’t NOT buy this stuff:
Burberry! Armani! Nars! Paul & Joe! Nail polishes from the newest collections! I couldn’t even fit everything into the frame. 😀 I’ll start off with the craziest (aka the best!) things:
Just a few months ago, I’d never met another blogger but then I met fivezero! 😁 And just this past weekend, I met THREE more bloggers! I met Jodi of A Brash Attitude and Cat of MyLipAddiction, and then Polished and Inspired!!! 😮 And of course, we did some makeup shopping! 😛 Here’s my collective haul:
Nothing is more fun than shopping for makeup with other makeup addicts! 😀
I bought this in January as part of my NailPolishCanada order at the beginning of my month-long nail polish acquisition madness. 😉
How could I refuse a nail polish that may or may not be named after a Simpson’s reference?
As you’ve seen in yesterday’s post, I’ve been hitting up all the Winners and Marshalls within a 10km radius of my home last month. I also visited my favourite salon supply shop that sells polishes for cheap – they still had the Essie buy 4 get 2 free offer, and it was extended to the China Glaze polishes too! And I also found someone who sells Avon so I had to get some polishes – it’s been years since I’ve bought Avon polishes (they’re great quality). So I somehow ended up with more polishes…
There’s no feeling in the world like hauling a whole whack of nail polishes! If that’s wrong, then I don’t want to be right! 😛 (These do not include the nail polish hauls already posted here and here and here and here.) Brace yourselves…
This order was prompted mainly by ONE nail polish: China Glaze Choo-Choo Choose You, from the Fall 2014 All Aboard collection. I was browsing some nail polish blogs looking at older nail polish collections and came across it. I mainly wanted it for the colour but… a part of me wanted it for the name:
(I may own the Lego minifigure of Ralph, holding this very card!)
So I had to order it, and a few other items came along for the ride:
