IMATS New York Haul

(this will not be an in-depth review.  Just showing you the products and giving you some insight on the discounts)

Of course IMATS New York is a great place to meet and mingle with amazing artist,  youtubers, and fellow makeup enthusiast but there is no denying that the shopping is unreal

Take a look at the wonderful products I was able to get my hands on.

Lashes + Mascara wands+ Z-Palette 
To be very honest,  I do not remember the name of the booth that I purchased these products from.  Kind of bumped into this booth and decided to pick up some goodies.  The lashes were 3 for $5, the mascara wands were $3 a pack and the large Z-Palette was $20.

Liberty Republic
 Purchased the Liberty Republic- Fake it lashes by Jordan Liberty.  These lashes really caught my eye and had an even better price point!  These babies were only 3 for $16

Yazi Cosmetics
Next,  I stopped by the Yazi Cosmetics booth where I purchased these two glitters as well as a lipstick (not shown in photo).  The owner had really funky colors and was also from my home town!!! So I had to show her some love.  I purchased the glitters and lipstick, in the shade purple kisses, for a total of $15.
Visit the Yazi Cosmetics website to see the other amazing shades that are available.

NYX
Next up are the NYX- Soft Matte Lip Creams.  I am so happy that I waited to buy these because online they go for $6 each and in store they are about $12 + tax each.  IMATS had them for the unbeatable price of $4 each.  
So far I am loving the shades Antwerp and Addis Ababa (as they are the only two colors I have tried).


Makeup For Ever

I knew that I could't leave IMATS without buying these two foundations.  I picked them up in the lightest (N107) and darkest (N185) shades as I will be using them in my freelance kit.  Makeup For Ever had a 20% discount, which isn't bad when dealing with foundations that are almost $50 a pop.  Each foundation was $36.00 + tax at the show.  I also decided to pick up a mist and fix for $12.00.  
On the Sephora website, The 4.22oz  Mist and fix retails for $34.00 + tax and the HD Foundations retail for $49.00 + tax.

Alcone
Got the chance to visit the Alcone booth where I pick up a Skindinavia Bridal Makeup Setting Spray.  I have heard so many good things about these sprays especially the Bridal one.  I picked this 4oz bottle for $22.

Sigma 
Got the Sigmax Kabuki Kit which included 5 amazing face brushes.  I believe this kit was between $60- $65 + tax, which is much better than the $84.00 + tax price tag from the website.
Also got a hand full of samples which were included in the Sigma bag.  No other booth (that I visited) included samples so this was a really nice treat.  


Royal Langnickle 
Stopped by the Royal Langnickle booth and picked up a few eye brushes and a stippling brush.  These brushes ranged from $3-$10.  I am excited to put them in my kit and use them on my clients.

Nigels Beauty Emporium 
Lastly, I visited the Nigel Beauty Emporium booth where I picked up some professional brush cleaner ($28),  a Ben Nye Translucent powder ($4-$9) and 99% Alcohol ($4) for my brushes.  They had a great deal on lashes but I felt like, at that point, I had too many lashes so I passed on them.

That is all folks.  I hope you enjoyed my haul!
 IMATS New York was truly an amazing experience and I can not wait for IMATS Toronto!
