What a fun weekend celebrating with my family for Father’s Day and on Saturday attending The Makeup Show Blogger Preview. This is an exclusive invite only event for well known beauty bloggers and industry experts. The show is packed with so many great makeup brands and great workshops, that I plan to cover the show highlights on my blog for two days! Saturday started off with James Vincent speaking to us about the many wonderful new products and “must see” seminars.
