Sephora Family & Friends Sale

Found out about the sale on (of all places) the Boost app on Friday, because they have a promo if you use the app for your payment at the sale. Apparently it was also a sponsored FB ad if you were paying attention. It started on Thursday, but only made it on the third and last day (Saturday) because, work and attempting to go during evening rush hour was an exercise in masochism. 


So on Saturday morning, I got in line a couple minutes before it started at 11 a.m. They even played a couple of rock anthems (Queen's We Will Rock You was one of them) to amp up the atmosphere before the doors opened. 

As if it wasn't enough that bags had to be tied up, you can't even have your phone out cos (I'm guessing) they don't want you taking pictures of what was on sale and the prices they're selling them at (in case the brands stumbled unto it, maybe?). I was mad because I had to HAND CARRY MY HEAVY ASS BAG AROUND, DEFEATING THE PURPOSE OF BEING HANDS FREE IN THE FIRST PLACE WTFBBQ. 


People working the sale were also actual Sephora staff... going by one I recognised from the second home store who's got a bit of an RBF. 

I had really low expectations going in because it was already the third day and there can't be anything interesting that I would want left. I was right - it was a lot of holiday stuff, palettes, soon to expire stuff, brands they don't carry anymore (like NYX now that they have their own standalone stores)... that sort of thing. It was mostly stuff I don't use or need to replenish. 

But still spent RM70 anyway. Cis.
