This is the last post for my IMATS goodies and consists of some of the more random things that I picked up. Note that this is going to be a long post with pictures.

From Nurturing Force I got the Blot Out Offensiveâ„¢ shine + oil control cream and the airbrush cleanser. What I love about Nurturing Force is not only are they a mom & pop operation but there products really work. Last year at the Makeup Show, I picked up the Face & Body blotting papers(not pictured)which come in a dispenser so you can decide how much or how little of a sheet you need.

Makeup Forever has a really big presence at the show this year and I think that it has a lot to do with their HD products but also because their products are very pigmented and work well. It is a professional brand created by a makeup artist for makeup artists but is available to the general public as well. I got my hands on the HD Microfinish Powder and the Kabuki brush that goes along with it for $50 for both; a real steal if you ask me. I was wanting a setting powder that I can use on eveyone.I don’t like using coloured powders on darker skin as I find that darker skin tends to be a bit more on the oily side and I don’t want the makeup to appear even darker due to oxidization.

Alcone was there and I made sure that I stopped by the booth. On my list was the Lip Chic lip sealer. I’ve never been a fan of the long wearing lipsticks because they leave the lips feeling and looking really dry and sometime chapped. I’m going to be testing this with a few lipstick brands so keep an eye out for the experiment and review. I also picked up the famous Alcone Makeup Remover Cloths because I have heard so many good things about them. I tried one out the other night and was really impressed with it. Like the Boots #7 wipes that I reviews a little while ago, these don’t leave a residue. I will definitely be repurchasing these for my kit and for personal use.
