Yesterday, I went to IMATS Toronto 2012 (the Internation Makeup Artist Trade Show).
Ever since IMATS was held in Canada, I’ve been going because it’s a great place to find good beauty deals, and you can attend seminars to learn new tips and tricks from successful makeup artists.
Okay, I’m not a makeup artist, but you can still pick up interesting tidbits that apply to the average woman. 🙂 (Well, I don’t think the average woman is average. The ‘average woman’ is incredible, smart, and beautiful. We are going to take over the world!)
At last year’s IMATS, you’ll remember that I was extremely frugal. Looks like I overcompensated this year! 😉 (You can click here to see my highly detailed blog post from last year. I basically walked you through the whole event and took photos of almost everything!)
Come take a closer look at the stuff I got yesterday, and check out some of the photos I took.
Before I bought the elf Cosmetics version, I got the Make Up For Ever HD High Definition Powder Microfinish Powder.
You want your personality to shine…not your face. Looking like you spent hours working in a greasy-spoon restaurant with your face over the deep fryer is never sexy.
Mineral makeup is my first choice for everyday foundation. But sometimes the powder fades throughout the day or applies a little patchy just because certain parts of my face are drier or oilier than others. A good face primer create a smooth canvas so your makeup adheres better and lasts longer.
