IMATS 2010 - the experience

International Make-up Artist Trade Show LONDON 2010 - Saturday

Perfect start to a perfect day - i was late! LOL

I couldn't get up early enough to make it for opening time. Worst of all, it wasn't a great day to travel on the underground and the queue for pre-booked ticket collection was long, very long and snaked around the palm court.

Missed the Eve Pearl workshop/seminar - boohoo :( in fact i didn't make it to any of the talks and the one i did, i found i was sat for the wrong one and in the wrong place (stupid me)

Luckily for me, i got to meet Eve Pearl later, and had a bit of one to one as she gave some very helpful tips and advice.

The crowd became too much to bare - kicking myself now! (Note to self: get there earlier next year!) Stalls were over crowded and didn't get a chance to have a proper look.

Hence, i haven't much of a haul, though of the things i bought, i am very pleased :)

Was fab watching all the crazy makeup on people and prosthetics, and felt a little sense of belonging, surrounded by makeup and crazy people just like me :P (crazy about makeup that is)

So here's a collection of some of the photos i snapped up on the day;

Despite getting there late, not being able to browse properly, and missing all the seminars and workshops - the overall experience was really cool, I have to say the highlights of the day was meeting Eve Pearl, and the most lovely; Wayne (gossmakeupartist)

Id defo go again, much better prepared of course. Even going to start saving for a bigger budget on next years spend.

I'm going to put up a haul video soon, don't hold your breath tho, it really isn't much
