A Day At The International Beauty Show NY

I spent this past Sunday working the Eve Pearl booth at the International Beauty Show (IBS) New York. It was my very first time working a trade show and while it was hectic I loved every minute of it! 


The gateway to beauty!

Eve pearl had a great booth setup, complete with banners, a mini red carpet, projectors and of course makeup. Just because I worked the booth doesn't mean I have to love it but I do! The Eve Pearl team is fantastic, they're seriously some of the nicest people I've ever met

Temptu was there with their airbrushing goods


Train cases in all shapes and sizes

The OPI booth was pure madness, I heard the Alice in Wonderland collection was sold out within 30 minutes of the booth opening. 

I didn't have too much time to wander around but definitely did some lacquer shopping...

Trade shows are geared towards beauty professionals and they do offer pro discounts. They had great bundle pricings, OPI lacquers were 6 for $24  and Essie polishes were 6 for $20.


I picked up Classic from the DS series, Bling Dynasty, You Don't Know Jacques!, The "It" Color, Panda-monium Pink, and You Don't Know Jacques! from the Suede series

OPI Start to Finish

Yumeko introduced me to the OPI Avoplex on the go cuticle oil and I love love loves it!

My Essie haul consisted of Mink Muffs, Chinchilly, Lilacism, Neo Whimsical, Loophole and Tart Deco

till next time~

XOXO, M

  3. Great pics again and a nice haul. I love Eve Pearl products. Unfortunately they are to expensive to buy regularly, considering customs and all that for delivery to Germany.
    It seems like you had some fun although it was work.

  16. Mona,

    You're one pretty gal.

    I would recognize you if I saw on the streets on NY as I did when I saw one of Eve Pearl's videos. It's the one called How to:Match/Apply Salmon Concealer to most Skin Tones
