| IMATS LA 2013! |
The International Makeup Artist Trade Show (IMATS) totally snuck up on me this year! I found out Thursday that it was this weekend, so the bestie and I bought tickets that morning to attend on Sunday! Usually IMATS is held in the spring/summer time, so seeing that it was in January made us totally excited for the weekend ahead!

IMATS is so much fun, if you are able to attend, and love makeup I would totally suggest that you do so! IMATS LA is actually located in beautiful Pasadena (about forty-five minutes to an hour away from where I live). If I could live in Pasadena I totally would! The convention center is then filled to the brim with makeup booths. All different kinds. Lime Crime, Sugar Pill, Sigma, OCC, and SO much more! There are demos, and special effects makeup, make classes and everyone there is just as excited about these products as you are! There were some pretty awesome makeup artist there as well this year. Like the makeup artists of American Horror Story!
One of the funnest things is meeting Youtube beauty gurus. I don't know if you know this about me, or not, but I am obsessed with youtube, so meeting these ladies in real life totally makes my day! I have to admit I get a little starstruck! This year I was lucky enough to see the beautiful Elessa from
Pursebuzz again, Marlena of
MakeupGeekTV, and
RissRose2!
