So if you follow Makeup Artist Magazine on Twitter, you would have seen that they announced that there will be IMATS (International Makeup Artist Trade Show) in New York in 2011!!! I’m so excited for this. They are usually held in LA, Sydney, Toronto, London, & Vancouver.
IMAT’s is the largest makeup convention in the world. Thousands of attendees the two day conference where they can take classes, listen to speakers, and purchase products from the largest makeup brands at discounted prices. many of the well-known brands like MAC, Make Up For Ever, Urban Decay, Temptu etc as well as smaller up and coming brands. A lot of YouTube gurus and beauty bloggers attend as well. It’s great. I wanted to go to IMAT’s LA, but since I have a 9-5, I can’t. Womp Womp!
Hopefully IMATs does come to NY next year. I can’t wait!
