Opening Night
What a fun get together!
The night prior to the two day professional tradeshow: The Makeup Show NYC (the 6th, FYI)---always one of our favs to go to...
A lot of the brands' employees, makeup artists and press---attended an opening night party.
A few lines took to the brushes and greasepaints, metaphorically speaking ---
---to magically transform models.
SOME HIGHLIGHTS:
Artistry here---these characters (channeling Radio City Music Hall, we thought) came courtesy of Make Up Forever-one of insider's top picks when it comes to the exacting standards HD tv...via their HD Foundation. Founder Dany Sanz was in the house---from Paris. This brand, scooped up by LMVH...is becoming as widely acclaimed as MAC among the pros.

AND to help that effort along---the brand announced a launch of the MAKE UP FOR EVER Pro Road Show---to San Fran, Miami, Austin and Atlanta. (www.makeupforeverpro.com)
DEX New York had an EMPIRE state of mind going---with makeup eyeshadows, powders, etc named after Big Apple landmarks.

The Empire State building---an inky black, highly pigmented powder "a centerpiece" of the collection...and prominently used to great effect on this model...as was Radio City Yellow Gold...though we think she coulda been the iconic Chrysler Building too.
DEX New York is popular with many professional makeup artists and consumers because all of the formulas boast advanced anti-aging peptides...and is one of the first brands we know to really have great coverage and great treatments all in one. www.dexnewyork.com

MULTI-TASKING LIP STAINS...with a kinda greasepaint texture---easy to apply everywhere. Several brands had them including MAC and Obsessive Complulsive (Lip Tars).
ARMOUR BEAUTY ---a new collection from BROOKLYN NYC !!!!!... has some of the best---and smells good to--vanilla-y!!!! LONG LASTING too.
On this model---several sheer lip glosses layered on, subtly. TAXI DIVER---Jodie Forster's IRIS character

| tattoo you |
| How many brushes----does one need??? Apparently all. |
| Highly pigmented products that last---the problem we have with cheap drugstore brands---they fade in an hour. More a bit more dineros---get a mixable/blendable product that lasts!!!! |
