To the undiscerining eye, the Hello Kitty Ruby Compact Mirror ($59 CAD) and the Hello Kitty Milk Money Makeup Bag ($39 CAD) available at exclusively Sephora may seem grossly overpriced. But there's a few things that you might not know without a little research...
Hello Kitty Ruby Compact Mirror
What you might not know: This mirror is decked out with 300 hand-placed Swarovski jewels.
Thoughts: The mirror contains a regular mirror on one side and a handy 3x magnification mirror on the other. Given the daintiness of a collector's item with hand-placed jewels, I feel like it should come with some sort of fabric bag to protect it. It's a little too much bling bling for my personal preferences, it would make a good gift for a Hello Kitty lover.
Hello Kitty Milk Money Makeup Bag
What you might not know: This bag is a larger remake of a 1974 iconic Hello Kitty collectors' coin purse. The remake has similar features to the original - a star clasp and shiny silver casing.
Thoughts: I'm not a fan of this updated Hello Kitty coin purse. Due to the larger size, the shape is awkward. Yes, one can appreciate the details like the graphics on the inner lining and the star clasp. However, what puts me off the most is that it's made of vinyl. Not exactly the prettiest or most expensive looking fabric for what is supposedly a "collector's item".
While I can see why the Ruby Compact Mirror would make an amazing gift for a Hello Kitty lover, I think that the Milk Money Makeup Bag is a poorly done remake. Before ordering these online, I'd suggest that you check them out in-store to assess whether or not the quality of these items is up to your standards.
