Reveal and packaging comparison

[calflu]

Since the questions of packaging from department stores have been brought up several times recently and I happened to have a chance to get WOCs from boutique and department stores, I think I can do a reveal and comparison!

The story is that I got a beautiful WOC for myself after seeing the pictures on the forum.

Then a friend of mine saw it and want one as well so I managed to get one for her as well.


And...my experience buying from
BG taught me not to expect too much from them for the packaging.

The packages from boutiques have been very consistent and nicely packed regardless of London or San Francisco.

Alright. Here we go! Everyone ready?

This is the version from BG
(Thank god no neon yellow ribbons this time!)

ok, so far I like the packaging of the boutique more... love the ribbon around the box and the camelia on it

 

[hollyyih]

yup packaging from boutique looks nicer.

Boutique packages are nicer and they wrap tissues around the WOCs


Here we go!

I thought the boutiques won't ship, I've read it here on TPF over and over???

I think they ship if your name is already in the system.
