My Freebies from SDM

I am back to Toronto for the last bit of the short summer we have in Canada. It is Shoppers Drug Mart Bonus Redemption weekend also. For those of you who are not familiar with Shoppers Drug Mart, it is a drug store here in Canada which offers a reward program. When you have accumulated enough points, you could redeem points for whatever you like in the store. Shoppers Drug Mart in the city carries much more prestigious brands than in the town where I live. So I decided to take advantage of that and redeem my points and get a few products which are not available in my town.


La Roche Posay Effaclar Duo Set
Chanel Rouge Coco Shine lipstick
Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins Oil free Moisturizer



I have been using the La Roche Posay Effaclar A.I which is the target corrector for blemishes for years and love it. Decided to pick up this set which contains the Effaclar gel, duo and Anthelios(sunscreen). It is the same price as just getting the Effaclar Duo so might as well pick up the set to try the foaming gel as well. Heard so much great reviews about the duo. This can be applied all over the face as a base after your moisturizer to help control blemishes, clear pores and also help with diminishing blemishes pigmentation which I am most looking forward to trying.

Origins High Potency Night-A-Mins is my night moisturizer for a while and really enjoying it. I prefer the oil-free version as the regular version is just a bit too sticky for me.






The Chanel lipstick is totally a splurge for me. I haven't tried their Rouge Coco Shine formula lipstick before and the shade I got is 94 Confident.


I believe this is a limited edition for the fall collection. I love sheer moisturizing lipstick to just throw in my purse for touch up. When I see this shade, I know I have to take it home with me. It is my favorite mauve, plum shade which is perfect for everyday and goes with pretty much everything.
