(IMATS June 2008)
It's Finally here! The International Makeup Artist Trade Show. You've probably heard it a lot these days, For all of you who don't know what this is it is a event that is held by Makeup Artist Magazine once a year where a bunch of different makeup companies come together and sell they're products at amazing discounts.Some of the many companies who will be there will be MAC, Makeup Forever, Crown Brushes, and much much more to even mention. Not only that but they have an amazing makeup competition and seminars with famous makeup artist and gurus speaking about tips and new product launches. I would recommend this event to any makeup lover or junkie or aspiring artist trying to get in the business. This is a great place to build up your makeup kit and simply to get inspired.
Now, For the advice for all my newbies who are going to this for the first time. Buy your ticket early and online!!! I cannot stress this enough. Buying your ticket early can save you a lot. Also buying your ticket online will save you a lot of time. The first year I went there was the longest line ever for people who were just buying they're tickets. I did purchase mine on line so we just walked in and saved time. Another tip I have is to do your research on the makeup companies who will be there, and make a wish list. The experience of just being there with all this wonderful makeup and products can be overwhelming and I find it that if you have a wish list it can help you to stay focused on what you need. The first year I went I found myself being broke after only going to the first couple of booths. Because I didn't take the time to see what was around me! Big mistake I know. If you go to www.imats.net you can see a list of all the vendors who will be there as well as a map of exactly where they will be set up. And lastly wear comfy shoes. Remember this is a convention so there will be a lot of walking.
Thats pretty much it for that. I hope everyone has fun at the event and I will be sharing on the things I got soon. Hope this was helpful to some of you!
Blessings and until next time,
