oh, and more makeup related- I'm thinking about taking the plunge and buying an airbrush setup while i'm there! NOBODY in Alaska does it, and I think it would be amazing to pioneer it up here!

I have never been but am really looking forward to it this year. Can some of you ladies you have previously attended give me more info. on what the event is like? Do the different companies give samples or discounts? Are the classes worth attending? What is the overall vibe? Sorry for the million questions I am just really excited and nervous about it and would like more info from your perspectives. Thanks!

Some, not all, of the companies give you samples/discounts. The MAC classes, IMO, where not worth it. I feel you can learn more from spectra members FOTD's and tutorials. As with anything, practice, practice, practice. It's always smart to stay on top of what's "new' in the industry and one may find the classes beneficial. It was a lot of fun. Tons and tons of people. I found the vendors to be friendly. Hope to see you there.

The Event is Freaking Awesome I've gone twice already this will be my third time going. There are tons and tons of booths of makeup schools, Different cosmetic lines, Some you know of like Mac, Makeup Forever and others. You do get some discounts depending on the cosmetic line. I know when I went last year to the Makeup forever booth they were having a discount on a huge set of concealers it was like half off. Some of the cosmetic lines if you buy something you get like a free eye shadow or free little something. The makeup competition is pretty cool. They have one each day for the two days of the Event. I think the classes are okay depending on which ones your going to. This Event I think is really good for anyone wanting any kind of information on Makeup schools weather it be for beauty or fantasy also the discounts and meeting up with other artists. Also Mac MUA do a whole body look on two models for the two days. They usually have them out on a little platform in front of the Mac booth around the afternoon like about 12pm. The over all vibe is pretty good, There are alot of people, so exspect that.

So what'd you think of the half naked guy at MAC? I bought a few things from MUFE but it was challenging trying to do swatches as peeps kept pushing in front of me.

What'd you buy?

hah ..yah There were allot of models that were half naked there. I got there pretty early. Too see the artists work on the models before and after, it was pretty cool. John Stapleton actually did the outline for those models. That one model guy in the blue was super cute :p It turned out pretty good though. MUFE Was a nightmare It took me forever to get anything I had to go back three times. Until finally someone helped me. I got a pretty good deal. 35% off of everything. I'll be doing a haul in the Haul thread, of what I got @t the Imats.

I thought the guy in the blue shorts was pretty cute. Enkore and Pursebuzz were there. Enkore was interviewing him and the MA.

Yeah the girl that helped me at MUFE spilled Fuschia star powder on my hand. It's still imbedded in the sides of my nails. I waited long just to swatch. I had to ask this girl if we could switch places, she already knew what she wanted but she and her girlfriends were hogging space. I just kept smiling

I'm an idiot, I placed an order online with Crown brush and didn't think about them being at IMATs. I could have saved $7 in shipping and probably got a deeper discount. Oh well, next year.
