Make Up Show Du Jour 5.18.09

So today was the Make Up Show in NYC. It was great to see a bunch of lines, such as Smashbox, Mac Pro, Kryolan, Makeup Forever, Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (which I was dying to test out), Becca, Crown Brushes, just to name a few.

I saw Ms. KraseyBeauty which was a pleasure and I finally got around to applying for a Mac Pro card. Very productive day all around and I even got to eat lunch at Cafeteria with my best friend. One of my favorite restaurants in NYC, think Sex and the City. They filmed there all the time.

Anyway, I got a few great things!

In Order from Left to Right:
  • Embryolisse Lait Creme Concentre, Daily moisturizer, cult item- I HAVE BEEN DYING TO GET MY HANDS ON THIS. Ever since I met Lily Donaldson a year ago and she told a few girls that she refuses to use anything but this on her skin I have been jonesing to try this out!
  • Embryolisse Filaderme Emulsion, Night Cream for Dry Skin
  • Embryolisse Creme Vitaminee, A creme that gives your skin a shot of vitamins and hydration. Also to be used at night and as a treatment for scars, skin problems etc.
  • Make Up Forever HD Foundation in #123. I have been reading so many reviews on this and for about half price I had no reason to not try it out, since I just ran out of my Chanel Vitalumier.
  • Make Up Forever Full Cover concealer in #4. This is GREAT.
  • Make Up Forever 4 pan palette, filled with #04, #139, #3, and #40 (I am thrilled with these matte shadows, look and review to come)
  • Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetic Lip Tar in Feathered- White
  • Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetic Lip Tar in Katricia - A creamy violet color

Were any of you ladies there? If so, what did you get?

PS- Style Warriors is now up on maccosmetics.com. Go order!

  11. Iambeautiful- You should really try them. They are amazing, a review will be coming up!

  12. blushing- Not anyone could sign up, you had to have credentials of some sort with you. Technically, its an industry only event so they are a bit more easy about it. I had my letter of employment with a part about my involvement with styling.

  21. Aw Belle I just realized I hadn't subbed to your blog! :( I was wondering why I wasn't getting any updates...lol...I LOVE all of MUFE concealers they are phenom...speaking of kerastase products I think when my money starts flowing in again that I'll prob. change my entire hair regime around to using just their products as I've heard so many great things...do you like their cement thermique? I straighten my hair A LOT and need some sort of protector...

  22. You're blog is sooo fun!!! I love all the make-up!!!! So fab, keep'em coming!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Aleksis- no problem! Anyway, I LOVE Kerastase it really makes great hair products. I am super picky about my hair, but Kerastase really amps up the health of your hair. A good heat protectant is by L'Anza, also Chi makes a great one. If you straighten your hair you should use the Keratase for chemically treated hair, you will notice a difference!
