I am super excited as I actually am going with a press pass! I know that INGLOT has 30% off and have a BIG shopping list for that booth. I hit MUFE at the Toronto IMATS in November and really don't need/want anything of theirs even with the 40% off. I know I need to hit Hakuhodo, and Bdellium tools, but aside from those, anyone know of any brands that I MUST hit?
Stila is there, but dont know what discount they offer, and if NYX has good prices, I would like to pick up the rest of the jumbo eye sticks I am missing.
Anything else too good to miss?
@Polish Jinx, this year I won't be going myself but here are somethings to do.
If you arrive the day before (Thursday) pick up your Press Pass since it'll be the quietest day to do so. On Friday it's Pro Only so even those with Press Passes can't go in (unless you have a pro card). On Saturday make sure to pick up your press kit from the front desk (where you pick up your press pass). LOTS of goodies in that bag.
If you're going to shop at Inglot make sure you have your list ready because that booth always has a line wrapped around it on Saturday and Sunday. Tell Edward and Daniel hi for my at Bdellium. Go see Brent Freedman at Vanitymark and tell him hi for me as well
. Looks like Vanitymark, Lime Crime (main booth, there will be a smaller one part of a different booth) and a others won't be there this year.

Stila's discount is 30% if I recall right. I'd have to ask Dominick what it is for sure.
Must hit brands and/or brands that love bloggers:
- Saucebox Cosmetics
- Lit Cosmetics
- Sugarpill
- Beauty So Clean
- BH Cosmetics
- Sigma (if you can get in on Friday they'll have a sweet gift for people)
- Frends Beauty
- NYX will be back this year after taking last year off from IMATS LA
- Makeup Geek
- Morphe Brushes (sister company to Crown Brush)
- Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics
- Parian Spirit
