On June 23rd I went to IMATS in Pasadena, CA.
OMG IT WAS THE MOST LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE!!!
For anyone who is into Makeup, or an aspiring makeup artist....YOU MUST GO TO IMATS at least once in your life! I got to meet award winning makeup artists, YouTube gurus I follow and FaceOff contestants. Here are some pictures of people I met and products I bought! Enjoy!

A super cool Peacock masterpiece...
Some lovely artwork I had done by a lady at one of the booths.
Man o Man...I spent about 4 hours walking to every single booth, taking everything in. It was very overwhelming at first. There was soooooo many people there, and I didn't know where to go first, so I just walked around and then decided where I wanted to "shop" from. I spent WAY too much money, BUT everything was discounted, SO I didn't feel so bad about buying so much!
Here are a couple pics of the stuff I got at IMATS!
From Sugarpill Cosmetics I got Goldilux Chromalust Pigment, Burning Heart, Sweethear and Heartbreaker Palettes, and 2 pairs of eyelashes...but they dont have names :(

I've always wanted to go to IMATS. My coworkers made the trip up last year but I had a conflict. Next time I'll have to let you know. (: And it's so awesome you got to meet iwanted2c1video! I love her YT vids. (:
ReplyDeleteCharmy lets go next year!!! And Bethany is the sweetest, and super modest! She is just like her YouTube channel! We literally talked for like 10 minutes and she asked me to be there Sunday to root her on....it was so nice!
