Saturday at PHAMExpo 2014 in Pasadena

I got to attend PHAMExpo: Professional Hair & Makeup Exposition this past Saturday at the Pasadena Convention Center thanks to Sleekhair.com. This was my first hair/beauty convention and I loved it! I am starting to dive more into the hair and beauty world and this was a great introduction to the gazillion brands out there! I enjoyed getting glitter added to my eyes and seeing, touching, and testing out eye shadows, lipsticks, and such on my hand. It was intriguing to see avid make up/beauty/hair stylists and icons as well as demonstrations of products. I didn't want to go overboard with purchasing products (although there were REALLY great expo prices that were nearly wholesale; some brands knocked a couple dollars off but are more sought after), and I'm glad I was with Sam (who's in cosmetology school so she had a lot of great insight into the different brands/products) and Nadine of Sleekhair! I also ran into Manna of Manna Kadar Cosmetics and Yuri from Amazing Shine Nails (just finished a photoshoot with them)! Here's what I bought:
Anastasia Brow Wiz, Royal and Langnickel 7-Piece Brush Set, Morphe Brushes 28-Eyeshadow Palette, and Lime Crime Lipsticks!
