S.I.L.K by Royal & Langnickel

As mentioned in my IMATS Haul Video I picked up a few brushes from the Royal & Langnickel booth.  I mistakenly stated in the vid that I initially came to know of the brand via The Makeup Show LA I believe, however the truth is I subscribed to MakeUp Artist Mag and they included two of the brushes with the subscription...which reminds me I need to renew that subscription ASAP!  Anyway, albeit late, as promised here are the brushes I picked up from IMATS:

Angle Foundation -retail=$15.99, IMATS price = $8

Blush Brush - retail = $29.99, IMATS price= $10

Brow/Lash Comb-retail=$4.99, IMATS price=$3

Kabuki Fan-retail=$17.99, IMATS price = $10.00

Powder Brush-retail=$29.99, IMATS price = $13.00

Taklon Contour-retail=$14.99, IMATS price = $8.00

Taklon Powder-retail=$14.99, IMATS price=$8.00

I also picked up the C142 Super Foundation brush however there is no image listed anywhere on the site, however if you visit the Funny Face Beauty blog, she has an image of it there.

These brushes are wonderful!  Super soft and super affordable, whats not to love?  For my fellow MUA's you will be happy to know that they do have a pro program that you can learn more about here.  Most people know all about Crown and Sigma and while I like both companies, Royal and Langnickel has proven that they deserve to be included in the top spot as well, even possibly knocking one of those other companies out of the running.  Don't take my word for it though, check them out!

Diary of an MUA/Writer: IMATS NYC 2011!

 

Please excuse the delay in posting, after I shared my amazing news last week I was bitten by the flu bug!  Talk about a whirlwind week.  As a result I have been pretty much confined to my bed for the whole week and even did a brief stint in the hospital.  Oh joy!  (sarcasm)

Enough of the pity party because as they say, the show must go on!  And what a show it will be - this time tomorrow I will be in NYC for the International Make-up Artist Trade Show 2011.  Given the reputation of New York it is by no surprise that for the first time in IMATS history the show is completely sold out!  I am so glad I made my plans early and that is why despite not being back to 100% just yet I will be a part of the action.

Be sure to check back for updates, pictures, vids and anything else I can crank out during my quick trip.  Will you be attending?  If so, let me know!  I would love to meet you.  I think that is one of the best parts about these conventions, getting to meet virtual buddies in person. 

See you soon.  :)
