This online purchase was actually my first official makeup purchase of 2016! because many stores were closed on new Year’s Day I chose to place an online purchase to celebrate the occasion. However, with our Canadian dollar being so crappy, I was somewhat selective in what I was prepared to pay. So I chose to place an purchase from a Canadian discount makeup site: SaleEvent.ca They sell mostly drugstore brands like Revlon, CoverGirl, Maybelline and some higher end brands like OPI and RoC – all at discounted prices, and numerous of the items are discontinued farger. Back in October, fivezero made a purchase from the site and I went to bookmark the site for future reference, only to discover that I already had it bookmarked – duh! I’ve never purchased from them before until now:
I purchased it on January 1st and it arrived on January 5th – pretty outstanding turnaround time. And that Revlon nail file was a freebie they included.
Here’s what I got:
• OPI nail Laquer: first date at the golden gate – $5
• Revlon Chroma Chameleon nail Enamel: Pink Quartz – $3
• Revlon nail Enamel: sophisticated 905 – $2
• Revlon nail Enamel: Ethereal 008 – $2
• Revlon nail Enamel: Revlon Red 680 – $2
• Revlon nail Enamel: Valentine 730 – $2
The regular Revlons were purchase 3 or much more for $2 each (otherwise they were $3 each) I was rather disappointed by Ethereal – based on online searches, it’s expected to have a pearlescence to it but all I see is a sheer white cream.
• Revlon nail Enamel: Holograhpic Pearls 765 – $3
• Revlon nail Enamel: Matte Pearl Glaze 785 – $3
These are from the transforming Effects™ collection – they’d make pretty toppers.
• Covergirl Outlast stay fantastic nail Gloss forever Frosted 115 – $3
• Covergirl Outlast stay fantastic nail Gloss Midnight Magic 320 – $3
I have no clue why I purchased these, to be honest.
• Revlon PhotoReady Concealer: 003 Light medium – $5
• Maybelline ExpertWear Eye shadow Single: 180S Silken Taupe – $3
I was very pleased to have found the Revlon PhotoReady concealer at such a low price (normally $15). It was on my top 15 of 2015, and I’m running out of it. I have a few Maybelline singles from this range and they’re superb quality for the price.
• Revlon Outrageous 2 in 1 Shampoo & Conditioner Volumizing for Fine-Limp Hair 400 ml – $5
• Maybelline new York baby Lips DrRescue Medicated Balm – 60 Berry Soft – $3
• Maybelline face studio Master Hi-Light blush 30 Coral – $5
I opened the Revlon shampoo to smell it and it completely brought me back! I used to use this back in the day – the smell lingers all day in the hair too. I really wanted just the shampoo, not the 2 in 1 but it was out of stock.
Total: $51 for 15 items. Shipping is totally free with $49 purchase but I was so stumped as to what to purchase after I’d reached around the $30 mark – I honestly spent hours looking through the site trying to find stuff to buy. I was bummed that they no longer carried the Maybelline dream Matte powders – I saw them last time I was on the site when fivezero posted her haul. Ah well – that’s the challenge with these discount type stores, once the products sell out, they’re gone. Also, there was a 50 nail polish for $50 mystery get bag offer before – I had stated that I would purchase that if they had it – but alas, it’s no longer available!
Have you tried any of these products? Do you ever purchase charm products from discount sources?
