My first IMATS experience (2012)

Me and my beautiful mumma :)

As someone who is somewhat of a new comer to the make-up world, I had wanted to go to IMATS last year but this was the first year that I've been. I had a truly brilliant time; if you haven't been before I would thoroughly recommend it but there are a few things I wish I'd known before I had gone. So for anyone thinking of going for the first time I thought this might be helpful for some tips :)

• Take Cash with you! - When I went I was carrying cash luckily, and I think a few of the stalls do have card machines but most don't. 
• If you are planning on buying make-up there, for your kit or personal use. Buy the expensive stuff! Don't go to IMATS and get the trade show prices on stuff that you could easily get at any time, I personally made a beeline for the Makeup Forever, Illamasqua and Inglot stalls! 
• Wear comfortable shoes - You're going to be walking around all day, and although those heels might seem a good idea at the time, trust me you will be regretting them when you're climbing up the hill to Ally Pally! 
• Go and watch the speakers - Personally, that was a total highlight for me watching the speakers, I felt like a learnt so much and they were incredibly interesting 

Hope this was helpful, I'd love to hear about any other tips if you have any, and I hope to see some of you next year :)

Hello bloggerverse!

I am very new to the Blogger scene, so be gentle with me please! This is my first post, so obviously it's going to be incredibly boring and no-one is going to read it. But I've wanted to start blogging for a while now, So I may as well introduce myself. I'm Daisy, I'm 18 and I live in the UK. I am utterly obsessed by all things beauty related, and will be posting honest reviews of new products that I like, or that I don't. 

 Lots of Love, Daisy xx
