Shoppers Drug Mart Top Picks #SDMTopPicks

September 23, 2016

Shoppers Drug Mart is where I started all of my beauty adventures. I remember going to Shoppers to browse the makeup and personal care aisles even in elementary school. This fall,  the Shoppers Drug Mart Top Picks event will introduce some of the best sellers, new finds, and hidden gems on their shelves. It’s also an opportunity to score some big bonus Optimum points!

During the weekend, there were interactive events in malls throughout Canada and I attended one at Richmond Center. At the event, guests were able to play the Vanity Memory game for a chance to win a $5,000 dream vanity! You were given 15 seconds to glimpse into the vanity and try to remember as many products as you can! It was a really fun and easy way to get passerby shoppers involved.
Although the event is now over, you can still get in on the fun by checking out the list of Top Picks items to see how you can discover the best products to pamper you from head to toe. Or, head to Pacific Center September 23-25 for another chance to play the Vanity Memory Game! Shoppers has such a full range of personal care products from skincare to haircare to personal hygiene, so you are sure to find everything you need in one go! With the bonus Optimum offers, I was excited to stock up my vanity with some items from the Top Picks list.

 

 

New Find- Crest ProHealth [HD] Toothpaste System
$12.99 and 1,500 bonus Optimum Points
I’m always trying to find ways to whiten my teeth. I’ve previously used Crest whitestrips and they work quite well but are very expensive and also needs to stay in your mouth for ~30 minutes. For something that’s more convenient for every day use, I decided to gives this Crest ProHealth HD Toothpaste system a try. You use the toothpaste (step 1) normally in your routine and add in 1 minute brushing with a whitening gel.
The whitening gel has the same taste as the Crest whitestrips so I have high hopes for this to lighten up some of my stains and brighten my smile!
Top Seller- Gillette Venus Swirl Razor
$14.99 and 1,500 bonus Optimum points
I am so excited to treat myself to a nice razor. The Venus Swirl razor has a Flexiball which will make it easier to follow the curves of your body. This package comes with 2 cartridges and you can then purchase more without having to replace the handle. A nice razor really makes the whole shaving experience less stressful as I found out when I switched razors last year to something more fancy. So if you’ve always stuck to the normal 2 or 3 blade razors, give the fancy ones a try!
Hidden Gem- Garnier Whole Blends Honey Treasures
$6.99 and 2,000 bonus Optimum points when purchasing 3 Garnier Whole Blends products
Garnier released a whole new line of hair care earlier this year and I’ve tried the hydrating line up. All the products are paraben free and also environmentally friendly. The Whole Blends promise ensures each product is great for your hair, improves communities and helps the preservation of the environment. This one is a repairing shampoo so I’m looking forward to some good hydration and protection! It also smells delicious!There’s quite a few other products selected and you can check them all out at Shoppers Drug Mart. Each of these products has additional Optimum point offers involved! You can easily score 8,000 points which is enough for a $10 redemption value!

The event is happening at Shoppers Drug Mart locations until October 7th. This is a fantastic opportunity to load up on bonus Optimum Points as well as discover new items for fall to stock up your vanity! You can also search up #SDMTopPicks on social media to see what other people have picked up.

What type of products do you get from Shoppers? Are you an Optimum points collector?

Hellllooo fall! 🍂🍁 In just a few weeks, the Hellllooo fall! 🍂🍁

In just a few weeks, the leaves are going to be golden red at Trout Lake!! 🤩😍. What are your favorite fall foliage spots in Vancouver?
Editing this post made MY MOUTH WATER!! 🤤🤤 Editing this post made MY MOUTH WATER!! 🤤🤤

Here are the best things I ate in Japan - restaraunt edition! (do you want to see one for snacks? or do you want to see a worst things I ate in Japan?)
Prices of the specific dish listed below.

1. Kanoko, try their special green tea infused soba or normal soba. I loved the dashi and tempura. Perfect lunch option for after visiting the tori gates. 1,300 Yen 🍜

2. Okonomiyaki Sakaba, you can pick the inside filling and a lot of the options were meat based. The sauce on top is delicious and you may be surprised the inside is mostly cabbage and not flour. 1,000 Yen🍥

3. Udon Bo Osaka, I tried out a cold dipping udon and it was excellent! They have a special yuzu sauce and the tempura is amazing too. 1,250 Yen 🍤

4. Roast Beef Ohno, the most affordable way to eat wagyu! Loved the sauces and nice side veggie dishes too. 1,750 Yen 🥓

5. Fuunji, flavorful dipping ramen with a vending machine to order! 1,400 (with egg + bamboo add on)🍱

6. Maguro Koya, holy crap I'm addicted to Ootoro now. So glad we splurged and got the double portion. We also tried the chutoro sashimi to compare cuts. 3,200 Yen 🍣

Hope this provides some delicious inspo for the best food in Japan!
Here's what I found from Ragtag in Japan!! 🤩🤩
I've definitely had my eye on a Dior piece and it's extra special that this design is a Japan exclusive.
I have to say, second hand designer shopping is a lot harder than I remembered! There are SO many stores now, I probably visited 20+ and the prices are not so cheap anymore 🤧🤧
.
A similar card holder from Dior is probably $600 CAD + tax. I got this one for ~$350 CAD. It's in excellent condition but there was no dust bag nor box.

📍 Ragtag, Shinseibashi, Osaka
We made it on the kyo-train garaku by Hankyu and I We made it on the kyo-train garaku by Hankyu and I'd highly recommend boarding this train if you're transiting between Osaka and Kyoto. ❤️‍🔥🌸
No reservations are required and the fare is just the basic fare (approximately $4!) 🚅
Check online for the most updated timetable but the most current is
9:32, 11:32, 13:32, and 15:32 leaving Osaka for Kyoto!
We showed up 30 minutes before boarding and was the first ones for car 5. Car 3 seems to be the most popular for the cherry blossoms!
