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)...
