I finally had a chance this morning to sit down and go through all of my new goodies I grabbed from The Makeup Show LA this past weekend.

In no particular order…..

My friend and owner of Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, David Klasfled, introduced me to their latest 6 colors added to their infamous OCC Lip Tar Line.  I cannot wait to put these in action!

I snagged this set from Celebrity Makeup Artist AJ Crimson, creator of Kissable Couture. I love gloss.

From MAKE UP FOR EVER, I purchased #8 and #17 Aqua Cream and #18 Pigment Purs in addition to a new Flash Colour Palette (mine was pretty worn out so time to replace it!).

I’m excited to use Beauty Blenders more often.

My most used colors in my kit from FACE atelier Cosmetics are #1, #2, and #4 Ultra Foundation.

Can’t forget a skin care staple! I don’t leave home without Embryolisse 24 Hour Miracle Cream and I snagged a travel size, perfect for my kit!

I worked the Yaby Cosmetics booth with founder and fabulous makeup artist, Liz Yu. She threw a couple of items my way for helping her out. I picked up the Finishing Touch Highlighter Palette, Dramatically Neutral Palette, and a popular show item, Heated Eyelash Curler.

Jeune d’ age organics was not at The Makeup Show, but I met with the owner, Michael Lamb, along with owner of Purely

Cosmetics, Robyn Bloom, Saturday night and had a blast talking shop. In June of last year, I wrote this post about a favorite skin care item of mine, Pumpkin Peel from Jeune d’ age. I’m looking forward to checking out the Acne Cleanser and the Marin Toner Mister.

Robyn Bloom introduced me to Purely Cosmetics Diamond Perfect Finish. I’m excited to put this powder to use because it already works great on my skin. I carried it around with me in my purse during my weekend in LA.
