Haul: Cosmetic Gala

Couple weeks ago I attended a cosmetic gala at The Bay (a Canadian department store, much like Nordstrom in the states) with a friend, and I purchase a few things =)

What is a cosmetic gala:

(happens 1-2 times a year for about 2-3 hours) Usually after the regular business hours are over, the cosmetic section will open to costumers who has brought a ticket in advance. Usually most of the ticket price can be redeemed if you purchase something at the event. The one I went to had snack foods and drinks, it was catered by a great restaurant that was attached to the mall, so the food was delicious (they served shrimps, dumplings, a variety of cheeses and so on). There were gift baskets to be won from draws, unfortunately I didn't win anything =(

Now on to the HAUL!
