Yesterday I told you all about IMATS, now lets get to the good stuff!
One of the great things about going to these trade shows is most of the products are on sale at discounted prices, sometimes as much as 60-70% off! So it really is a great opportunity to stock up on what you need and to try what you want!
Let me show you what beauty booty I bought!
First, my biggest score is this fabulous set bag from Naime's! The company that makes this bag is called On-D-Go and it was a steal. First, it is HUGE! Second, I have seen these clear set bags at other stores and this size will run you about $120! Not this bag! This bag was a very reasonable $25!!! The gentleman at the Naime's booth said their sale prices and their store prices were the same, so if you are interested in purchasing quality bags and makeup cases for a very reasonable price, you should definitely give Naime's a try. (I have not checked their website, so don't come yelling at me if the prices are not the same!)
Second, these look so luxurious, I am almost delirious about them and cannot wait to wear them! Beautiful Mink eyelashes from Velour Lashes! They are 100% Mink and can be used up to 25 times! They looked gorgeous on the little ladies that sold them to me and the packaging is adorable! There is even a warning that wearing them may cause serious side effects such as increased flirtiness, extreme sexiness, and irresistible eyes. And I seriously believe it!
Next is this very versatile foundation palette from RCMA, which I purchased from the Alcone counter. I have never used RCMA foundations (this was recommended to me by my friend, Ro Puchal, a very talented makeup artist who you will be reading about in a later post!) but I am really excited to try them!
I picked up some Beauty So Clean while I was at the Alcone counter to make sure everything stays sanitized! Everyone should pick up some of this product sanitizer, I spray it on everything!
Also from Alcone, my adorable Z Palettes! This cute Zebra one that is now housing all of my (most of my) Little Goddess eyeshadows and a snazzy little leopard print one as well!
I love my animal prints!
Lastly, I bought a crease/blending brush from a company called bdellium tools. The girl at the check in counter recommended them and this one is fast becoming a favorite! Again, a steal at $6.00! NYX had a fabulously colorful counter with every product and color imaginable and they were nice enough to give away these little pigments at the door. Thanks NYX! Is it just me or does it seem that this company has exploded overnight?
So that was my day! If this sounds like fun to you, make sure to purchase your tickets for next year! If you can't wait until then, The Makeup Show will be heading our way in May and a lot of the vendors from IMATS will probably have booths there!
So what are you waiting for?!
I will see you there!
