Period covered: 31 August - 6 September
On the last day of August, H brought me to a Shiseido workshop. First time visiting their 'training centre'-ish salon and was stunned by the free testing area. No sales pressure, no busy pedestrian traffic, it is like a Japanese cosmetics heaven. After the workshop we were given some samples to test out, along with a letter/voucher. Naturally, I took advantage of the voucher and went shopping for the one Shiseido product which impressed me most (and most affordable, and one that is least redundant to add to my current stash). With the letter, I 'earned' another two pretty generous samples with purchase. Yet, that isn't the end of the story. H and I visited a newly revamped enormous Sasa store. The Sasa is so big that it houses Bobbi Brown, MAC, Anna Sui and Banila Co. counters! Did some damages to our wallet there, and left with a grin and heavy bag. Now I'm totally ready for a spending ban!
In September, #100DaySpendingBan #take2 started, and if you know how well (or bad) I did. Then keep on watching!
