So Much Pretty

Beauty and product junkies everywhere – the Makeup Show is COMING TO TOWN in 2 weeks! On February 28th and March 1st, head over to the California Market Center and get your obsession on!

The Makeup Show debuted in Los Angeles last year for the first time, and of course I was in attendance, because I’m everywhere that’s worth being, obviously. It’s this huge convention for all things make-up – brands showcase new products, make-up artists show off their badass techniques, and panels discuss what’s going on today in make-up. And it’s actually open to anyone in the industry – students, bloggers, make-up artists, hair stylists, estheticians, etc – (some brands even sell products at a discount… ooh la la!) Last year I got to meet Lady Gaga’s make-up artist. YOU ARE SO JEALZ.

This year, I’m REALLY excited to check out Model in a Bottle (has anyone ever used this? I have not! I’m intrigued) and to see what Korres has in store – in my opinion they make the best lipgloss on the market. Other top brands on site include Becca, Smashbox, Stila, Makeup For Ever, and like six million more (view the full list of exhibitors here.

Tickets range from $40 for a One-Day ticket, to $55 for a 2-day ticket (student discounts are available). But since our economy sucks right now and most of us find ourselves cutting back, I’m going to give away a pair of 2-Day tickets! OMG! Just leave a comment by February 21st at midnight. And make sure you live in the area and/or can provide your own transportation to the show. Good luck ladies – and boys, of course
