Sydney International Beauty Expo

This past weekend saw me schlep from stand to stand at the Sydney International Beauty Expo. There were some great new brands & some exciting new additions.

Pure Fiji introduced the Coconut Milk & Honey range which I mentioned a while ago – it smells better than I imagined! The rich coconut scent from the coconut range is mixed with the sweetness of honey making it irresistible!

I lightened my teeth by 4 shades with Bright Smile in only 20 minutes. They are opening a new shop in Manly on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, so if you are close, go in and talk to the staff as they are just lovely.

Rae Morris wowed a HUGE audience with her tips & tricks. I’ll be relaying many of these to you over the coming months. In the meantime, let’s just say that I feel the need to purchase an airbrush machine.

The installations by the major spa brands (Pevonia, Sothys et al) were bigger and even more impressive than the last time, which I thought was impossible, with fountains, mini spa buildings and huge lighting rigs.

My only complaint was the amount of crap they hand out – I left with around 4kg worth. It is such an enormous waste of resources!

Next up, thinking about what Expo to go to next!

P.S. A big thank you to those who wished me well – I really appreciate it.
