Beer. Family. A spring. Easy and cheap travel. Cars that handle.

Have you tried looking in Sephora? There is probably a Sephora in some mall in Calgary. :fingerscrossed:

Re: What do you miss most?
 

Thanks Juliet and Miss Clinique for the links, will check them out.

Peas, tried Sephora they don't stock it in Canadian stores, can get online but only with a Canadian credit card which I don't yet have!!

Trawled around every store I can think of in every mall in Calgary and nowhere even stocks YSL fragrance!! In fact one assistant in Shoppers hadn't even heard of it and thought it was British, lol.

At least Alberta weather means I can wear my shades all year round to hide the bags, though not so sure today.......

You could use the money you save on the makeup and buy your husband a few extra pints. ;)

Re: What do you miss most?
 

That is not at all bizarre.

What we save on not buying nice cheese is his beer money:thumbdown:

Re: What do you miss most?
 

I just figured that buying him beer would probably achieve the same result as putting on makeup.

Girls just ordered Touche Eclat from http://www.expressbeauty.co.uk/ Cost only £23.43 including shipping (no VAT) compared to almost $50 from Sephora. I think this is less than I paid on the High Street in UK.

Will see how quickly turns up now and then order in bulk unless we get a trip south before then.:D

If you miss all of this trivia then don't emigrate. It's obvious that you don't have a pioneer or adventurer mindset.
