MAC Warehouse Sale (aka Estee Lauder Warehouse Sale)

My besties and I were in Toronto, Canada for a fun girl's weekend. I got us some tickets to attend the MAC Warehouse Sale aka Estee Lauder Warehouse Sale.

This event is not open to the general public, an invitation is required for entry. We left our hotel around 7am, we arrived at the Markham Fairgrounds around 8am. There were 362 people in front of us and the door didn't open until 9am. The guard let in the 1st 360 people in, once they started to filter into room 2 they let the second group in - I was 3rd in that second group. We presented our tickets and received a bag to place our goodies in.


The sale is in a 4 building warehouse; 3 rooms of product - the 1st room is a standing room. The 1st room contained makeup bags, concealers, skincare products, nail colors, and fragrance. The second room contained eyeshadow compacts, hello kitty items, fragrance gift sets, makeup gift sets (pigments, lip bags etc.), skincare, eye shadows, pigments, brushes, foundation, and brushes. The third room contained face compacts, skincare, lip products, and misc. items in a $3 section. The third room also housed the check out lanes, charity section, and free gift section.

Here's what I purchased (by room)...

Estee Lauder Warehouse Sale (NY Haul Part 1)

Over the weekend, my best friend and I went to the Estee Lauder Warehouse Sales. This event is not open to the general public, an invitation is required for entry.

At 6am, we headed for New York. The drive from Philly wasn't too bad. I set the cruise controls and relaxed on the journey up the NJ Turnpike.

Once we arrived at the location, we parked and went inside. We presented our tickets along with our id's. We grabed a box (used for our finds) and headed in.

My first stop, the MAC eye shadow bin. This was a metal bin filled with pre-packaged MAC eye shadows; there were three in each pack for $10.00. Next, I found myself at a section of the warehouse that contained all types of Bobbi Brown makeup cases; I picked up a brush box for %5.00. I then headed arounfd the corner and picked up a Sean John Fragrance gift set for $45.00. My last stops was a table filled with items from the MAC Couture Collection and MAC brushes. . I got a MAC 182 brush from the Couture Collection for $15.00 and Magnificient Lipgloss from the Couture Collection for $6.50. I also picked up 2 MAC 187 brushes for $20.00 each.

Here's some pictures-
