Last Thursday, I was invited to attend a charm blogger even at Rexall located in downtown Toronto. It was to celebrate their remodeled location at Yonge and Richmond (in the heart of the financial district in Toronto – think of it as wall street in NYC). It was a beautiful event and I also received some loot!
I posted a bunch of IG stories of the event (if you’re not following me on Instagram, here is my account!) and I’ll share some of the videos here as well.
This Rexall store is actually located quite close to my work – yes I work a 9 to 5 job – so I sauntered over after work. The building is something to behold:
Rexall has been opening up quite a number of downtown locations in recent years. Lately, they’ve opened smaller formats within some historical buildings. What I love is that they’ve retained the character of the original buildings by working around facades and structures (if you live in Toronto, I encourage you to check out their Brunswick house location, it’s so beautifully done). The event also featured the radio station KISS 92.5 and this mountain of cake pops:
I had to try one:
Lecker! By the way, the polish that I’m wearing in the video is – coincidentally – Cupcake polish in Down for the count (that I hauled here). Onto the charm goodies – the bag they gave us was heavy to carry around for the hour that I spent at the store:
It was seriously like a workout for my arms!
The weight was owing to some of the body and hair products inside:
• Nivea Smooth Body Lotion
• OGX extra Creamy + Coconut miracle Oil Body Wash
• lady speed Stick Unstoppable Antiperspirant
I’ll give the antiperspirant to my sister because I made the switch over to deodorants.
• Maui moisture curl Quench +Coconut Oil curl Smoothie
This hair mask smells outstanding – like real coconut! check out Jodi of A Brash Attitude’s post on this line.
• BIC Soliel glow comfort shield Razors
• Colgate Optic White express Platinum White Toothpaste
These are essentials – who doesn’t want smooth legs and white teeth?!
• Neutrogena All-in-One make-up removing Cleansing Wipes
• 7th heaven Dead Sea Peel-Off Masque
• StriVectin TL advanced tightening Neck Cream
• live clean Refreshing Facial Wipes
I’ve been trying out a few of the Montagne Jeunesse 7th heaven masks and they’re very effective! I can’t wait to try more.
• John Frieda glamorous volume Core restore and Frizz ease hair care samples and coupons
• Nivea Creme care All-in-One Facial Cleansing lotion samples and coupons
• Parissa Brow Shaper small Wax Strips sample
• Nivea 2-in-1 Moisturizing primer sample
I’m fascinated by that Nivea primer – haven’t heard anything about this.
• Physician’s formula Mineral wear cushion Corrector + primer Duo in yellow / green – when I saw this, I started to laugh. You all know how I feel about cushion compact makeup! I’m not sure if I’ll try this or pass it along to someone. but I do like the holographic packaging even if my buddy Harivain might not!
• Physician’s formula highlight & Contour palette Bronze Booster in Matte sculpting – I read this review on Mimsy’s blog awhile back and I’m thrilled to try it!
• Physician’s formula Lash Contortionist in Ultra Black – I practically picked this up a while back when I found a $5 off rebate on the package.
• Tweezerman tweezers in leopard print (rawr!)
• Revlon Eyes, Cheeks + Lips palette in Seductive Smokes
• Burt’s Bees Lipstick in Sunset Cruise
Remember I was wanting an all in one type of palette for travel? maybe this Revlon one will fill the void. and funny, I already own the Burt’s Bees Lipstick in that exact shade (I love the formula so much, it was in my favourites list) so it will be gifted to someone!
Thank you to Rexall for inviting me to check out your Yonge & Richmond store! some of the brands and features at this location include NYX, Milani, H2O+, Kiss NY (I was thrilled to see this at Rexall, remember I picked up a few items from Cloré charm supply before), and a wall of nail polishes and a special display of discount designer fragrances for $19.99.

Hauluary 2017 – makeup and SkincareWhen I look at it all together like this, I think I got a bit carried away with makeup hauling… but when you pick up a little bit here, a little bit there, it doesn’t seem like it’s that much! 😉 I wasn’t able to go on actual Boxing Day…
