Bitter Sweet Discovery! + Haul

I was bored today, and since I was all dressed up, I decided to take a trip through the mall and also book my optometry appointment while I was at it. I stopped by Zellers and picked up a blush brush from Bella Brushes for $4.99 + my SPC discount.

I've started noticing a small selection of these brushes being put out at my local Zellers, so I decided to pick up an angled liner/brow brush for $2.99 a while ago. The brush is really good, and at an exceptional price, so I decided to branch out and pick up a blush brush also. So far, so good!

While browsing, I noticed a new store that opened up called "Designer Cosmetics." I walked in and it was like heavennnnnn! I keep hearing people talk about NYX products and L.A Colour palettes and Art Deco nailpolishes with those thin brushes, and what does this store carry? All of the above! This is the first time I've ever seen ANY of these products in person and I swear I was like a kid in a candy store.

They had a good selection of NYX products. For example, the new Runway palettes for $12.99, single eyeshadows for $4.99, the glitter liners for $4.99, jumbo sticks, blushes, round lipsticks that were 3 for $9.99, brushes and lashes, concealers in a jar and foundation, OPI collections, EVERYTHING!

So how is this a bittersweet discovery? Sweet, because I've finally found NYX & L.A Colour products, but bitter for my wallet cause I'm going to be hauling from there like crazyyyyyy!

Seriously, you do not know how excited I am!

The prices aren't that bad, but I have seen them cheaper on line, on the other hand though, it saves on shipping fee's and all that. Also, the products don't seem individually wrapped, for example, my blush that I bought wasn't wrapped, so you want to double check that someone hasn't swatched it or anything. But, the jumbo sticks were wrapped with tape (it looked like the sales associates did this)

Anyways, here's what I hauled! I had to control myself..

The Bella Blush Brush is on the left, then a NYX blush in Mauve for $6.99, and Art Deco polishes that were 3 for $9.99.

Till later! (:
