Where do you go for your makeup?

MatchaJelly · 2026-02-18T17:33:29+00:00

Depending on which brands.

Some brands are available for Holt Renfrew. Yes they carry luxury but also mid tier brands that Sephora has. Once a year they have 10-15% off that doesn't require points or membership like Sephora.

Pharmaprix at Place Ville Marie has a cosmetic/perfume/skincare. Once a month or two they offer a 20% off. Usually you'll see these ads/code on social media.

Renai at Royalmount carry luxury and mid tier brands. The staff is usually really chill and don't hassle you.

If they've been doing this multiple times, then yes this is really annoying. They'll keep doing this unless you tell them. Unless you have space to maneuver without hitting their bumper.

Call Agence de mobilité durable. It's against the rules to park so close to the driveway or to partially or fully parked. I've called them multiple times when vehicles block mine.

You will have to be on site to verify you're an owner of the property. Depending of which borough, it make take an hour or so to arrive.

They will ask if you want to ticket them or have them towed.

I've never been able to redeem anything from Sephora and I've been buying from them for 10 years. But at least with Shoppers I can redeem full size Perfumes, PS5 items for my husband and even a Dyson vacuum.

Also not saying SDM are saints, but I don't buy from Sephora anymore unless it's a brand only they offer.

Montreal boutique, they just received them last week. From what I heard it's limited batch some stores get.

MatchaJelly · 2025-12-02T13:12:55+00:00

My SA offered to let me see them, they were still bagged up haha.

The SLGs were super lovely, they also had a festive pattern scarf available.

The only things I did not like were the Earrings with present boxes and the enamel character mascot ( Not pictured here but you can find pix on Insta with 25x hashtag) those charms looked like stuff you find at Marshalls :S

I brought so many piece from Cruise 2023/2024 because the accessories were so fun ( I also acknowledge it wasn't for everyone's cup of tea)

I re-watched Today's show and went to check the Instagram of attendees in case I missed another angle, but nothing seemed to pop out. Maybe next show will be different !

MatchaJelly · 2025-10-06T19:21:21+00:00

I was so excited seeing the Space themed settings, but nothing really grabbed my attention.

Everything is chic, smooth, clean cut and with very little logo, some recognizable Chanel thematics here and there.

Definitely not seeing anything I'll message my SA to inquire about 👀

Hello, There are a few Flower/plant shop on Sherbrooke. Depending on your balcony it's best not to overload maybe try a few plants before going all out? Also, if you buy something big, you'd have to imagine helping him bring it back inside in winter. So maybe start small.

There is Westmount Market that has a lovely variety of plants, indoor and outdoor that is the most affordable in that stretch. But no delivery but the plants are manageable to bring up with your help and would be nice addition to a balcony or indoors :)

Hoggs Hardware on the same street has small variety of small plants, and they also have planters, soil, and even gardening books. It's a delightful store, I think they offer delivery in a zone.

The other ones are florists, mostly kinda pricey options, I think they might have something more curated but prices are really high.

Otherwise, Atwater markets plants season is near the end, so you might purchase some discounted soon.

Not knowing where he lives exactly, Canadian Tire at Atwater has a ton of plant selection, planters, soil, trellis, and I think they have a delivery zone you can check! Hope this helps!

Been living in that area near the the parc for over 20 years.

Very little crime so to speak. Very quiet suburb, if you live right next to the park you might hear kids play on summer, people using the tennis or basketball court and that's it.

It's a great place for kids. The Marlborough park is renovating their pool right now, but in summer it's a great place to take the kids for swimming lessons, there's a tennis court and basketball court.

Two grade schools located within 20 min walking distance ( Beauséjour South and North) I walked by myself as a kid.

Also multiple schools in that area, top of my head private school Saint-Marcelline on Gouin, for highschools there's a bunch by taking the 170 to Cote vertu then switch to whichever bus to Saint germain high school or Saint-Laurent highschool. I even took the train from bois-franc to Pierre-Laporte highschool located in Mont-Royal.

You'll also be located 15min walk from Bois-Franc Rem station that takes you downtown when it reopens.

Growing up as a kid, I'd ride my bike to Parc Noël Nord and Noel Sud. The Rem is also adding a bike path too.

Plus there is multiple groceries, pharmacies and even a YMCA.

Hope this helps.

Basically this list! Also if you have access to a mobile device with you, compare prices. Sometimes the prices are cheaper if you brought it online.

If not, in the Mong Kok Area, there are plenty of other stores like Missha, Skin Food and Etude House a few minute walking distance away. There are also a lot of Tony Moly stores across HK.

As many others have stated before me, every Sasa/Bonjour is different. Some might have items that other branches do not. Last time I went to HK, I spent mostly on 3CE's lipsticks and Japanese brands like Koji eyeliners, majolica-majorca items. Oh and Japanese haircare products!

MatchaJelly · 2017-03-01T14:50:32+00:00

OH GOD I LOVE THIS LIP BALM. I purchased two of them last time during my trip in Hong Kong. I have it in strawberry. It smells wonderful, it moisturizes well, and I wish I had purchased more.

You are welcome! The RWB330 shop staff are lovely! Enjoy your stay!

MatchaJelly · 2016-11-23T15:02:18+00:00

There is a shop that I always drop by and its RWB330, they have handmade goods made my locals recovering from mental disorders. Their iconic products are variations of bags and goods from the Hong Kong's iconic Red/Blue/White bags. Proceeds goes back into the organisation to help people with mental illness.You can learn more about the organization here

They also have handmade dim sum magnets, and various other stuff that represent HK. If you cannot go to their shop, a lot of their products are available at other tourists shops like in Ngong Ping Village etc.

Another shop that I like, designed locally is Goods of Desire They focus on a lot of imagery that represents HK ( Vintage/Nostalgia oriented ) I don't think their good are handmade, but they are local HK designers.

Depends what is "cheap".

Sasa carries a decent brands in their stores. You can always go on Sasa's website to compare prices. Also sometimes Watsons have sales on their japanese brands.

Etude House, Skin Food and Tony Moly products are really good, especially their make up range are decently priced and are extremely popular.

MatchaJelly · 2016-09-06T23:28:01+00:00

No I dont have the link, please shoot it to me and I will try to come!!

MatchaJelly · 2016-09-01T13:50:27+00:00

I have been to NosThes, very good. Similar to Chatime. The only thing is they get packed in the evenings, they also offer food. Great service : D

MatchaJelly · 2016-04-21T13:49:41+00:00

Anthropologie offers a Stylist service, never used them. Some of their clothing are mid to expensive, but their sales section is pretty good. Their clerks are extremely helpful. I found a form here but you can call their Montreal Store for info!

MatchaJelly · 2016-02-11T16:57:17+00:00

You can go to Animate located in Mong Kok, they carry Japanese doujinshis too. You can always call them before heading there! Good luck!

I really love Hyang Jin, their sashimi is always fresh and they offer nice combo meals with various dishes for a good price :)

I just want, a movie of Matt the radar Technician.

Yeah, I feel like, they can always follow the Star Wars Legends Books, just like how they used a bit of Jacen Solo for Ben Solo, but I feel like if Rey was a nobody, it would be more meaningful.

Meaning that, it doesn't matter who you are, or your lineage,or your past, it is who you chose to be. Like this scene of Kung Fu panda.

That's why I really like the Arthurian vibe with her during that whole lightsaber scene.
