EVENT: MARY KAY FAIRYTALE & FANTASY COLOUR COLLECTION EVENT

I am so late in posting about this, but as I had such a fantastic time, I thought that I’d still do it… A few months ago I was lucky to be invited to a Mary Kay product launch for their newest makeup collection for Autumn 2014, the Fairytale & Fantasy Colour Collection..

The event was held at the Ludlow Bar on Southbank in Melbourne, which is a nice restaurant, and with the small gathering of beauty bloggers, it was the perfect setting for the small and intimate event. The atmosphere was so nice and relaxed, and immediately on arrival the chit chat was happening.

As always when you are at a blogger event, it is so great to catch up with fellow bloggers, and meet and put a face to the ones you’ve not yet met. And everyone has so amazing blogs they are so passionate about and put so much work into, so make sure to check them out via the links below the images below.

The event was arranged by the lovely Jules and Eunice from Mary Kay, and as I unfortunately was unable to make it to their last events, it was so nice to finally meet both of them.

And how could I not mention the food. It was amazing. I am a lover of seafood and the seared scallops, the salmon nigiri, the prawns twisters were so amazing! But so were the semi dried tomato & pesto pizzetta and the grilled vegetable bruschetta. And of course not forgetting the burnt lemon curd tarts!! Yummo!!

 

 

 

 

There were also a large selection of other Mary Kay skincare products put out to be played with..

That aside, the main reason for the event was of course the new colour collection, Fairytale & Fantasy.

And there was plenty of time to play with the products..

The products are packaged in gorgeous purple boxes, and we were lucky to given a gorgeous purple velvet cosmetic bag containing the full collection (apart from the gel eyeliner, which had not arrived at Mary Kay in time for the launch), which includes two nail polishes, two lip stains, four smoke & shimmer eyeshadow wands and two eyeliners. And all the products are so gorgeous, and pigmented, so stay tuned for my full reviews coming up soon.

We were also given a few other Mary Kay products including a mini eye makeup remover, a mini mascara and a night cream, ain a gorgeous small cosmetic bag that included a little red travel tag shaped like a plane – and this will be so perfect for my baby boys suitcase the next time we go travelling.

How amazing are these goodies, can you believe the generosity of Mary Kay!

This was lovely event and I loved that it was so small, informal and intimate, which made it so much easier to sit and chat and learn more about Mary Kay and their fantastic products. I am already looking forward to the next Mary Kay event.
