Goodies from The Makeup Show LA

At last I found the time to take pictures of the stuff I got from The Makeup Show. It's not a haul, just basics for my kit, that's all. I stayed within my budget (uhmmm, yeah...) so I am not feeling bad that I purchased something I do not need. 

goodies!

Here are close up pictures ;) 

Graftobian Hi-Def Super Palette in Warm
MUFE HD in 117, 155, 177. They ran out of the other 3 I want but I can get them at the store on Robertson Blvd.
Graftobian Hi-Def Corrector Palette
OCC Lip Tars in new packaging! Colors in Rx, Traffic, NSFW, Feathered and Tarred
Model in a Bottle

Beauty So Clean Cosmetic Sanitizer
Beauty Blender

Crown Brushes

MUFE Empty Magnetic Palette
I also got some magazines, some catalogues (with makeup techniques articles) and some other informational stuff. I keep those for future references, maybe for pictures or see what other products I am missing. 

Thanks for stopping by today. Did you like the goodies I got?

Fun at The Makeup Show L.A.

I believe that a TRUE ARTIST can never learn enough. Education must be continuous.
I must keep on learning. 

I was lucky to be able to attend The Makeup Show (previous post about it HERE) last Sunday. I had fun hanging out with my fellow Filipina MUA Michelle Arcilla, seeing famous people in the industry and to listen and learn their techniques (amazing!), meeting famous faces and making new friends. It was a wonderful experience.

Ready for pictures? Here we go :)

We felt like a kid in a big candy store. Most (if not all) pro stores and products are there for attendees to see, test and take home! I did some shopping. Mostly basics for my kit and I MAYBE posting them if you guys wanna see.

If you wanna see more pictures you can check them out on my Facebook Fan Page (click HERE). :) I took pictures of the vendor's booths oozing with products. Gosh I want them all.

I ended the day with an Italian dinner date with my husband. He always have the ears to listen on my rants and raves about anything, yes including makeup. LOL.

Out on Saturday Night


I am kinda getting tired of wearing dark eyeshadows to nighclubs. Last Saturday was one of my GFs birthday that was held at Voyeur Nightclub in West Hollywood, and I wore this:


Please forgive me, I used my iphone's front camera to take this because I was in a hurry.
My inspiration? Viva Glam Nicki poster and my current nail polish Did It on 'Em.



Products I used:
Mac Chromagraphic pencil in Basic Red
Sugarpill Love+
Inglot Eyeshadow # 41 AMC S, #477P, #60 AMC, #70 AMC
MAC E/S in Brulee, Wedge and Browndown
Mac Blush in Tippy
WnW Matte lippie in 966 Don't Blink Pink

Bows? I made them myself. ;)
