My BeautyCon NYC Experience




I attended my first BeautyCon event on Saturday May, 20th, 2017 in NYC.  The event was like no other event, I've attended in the past. There was lots of beauty, fashion, and lifestyle brands tied into one event. I had the luxury of seeing and meeting some of my favorite YouTube Content Creators and Celebrities. I definitely enjoyed the vibes of BeautyCon and everyone there was very friendly and welcoming.

BeautyCon has the best packaging for their tickets! I did not expect to receive a tiny package of love in the mail. I received a BeautyCon X ColorPop lipstick and a iron-on nail polish, with lipstick BeautyCon patch, in my box.  


The L'Oreal Paris booth was literally like  being in the city of love! There was a floral bouquet, replica of the Eiffel Tower and pink and purple Macaroons.  

      

The Soap & Glory booth was pretty amazing, each guest at the booth received their new Sexy Mother Pucker lip gloss.


The BeautyCon shopping cart inside the booth area. I purchased a BeautyCon tote bag for $80, which was filled with beauty products. I thought the bag wasn't really worth it in my opinion.  I like using products with more natural and organic ingredients. I did receive a tons of free products from a lot of different booths like Shea Moisture (no shade). 


There was also free food and drinks at some of the booths like Califia Farms. Just a little FYI there were outside food vendors and food sold inside the venue. I purchased a Matcha bubble tea drink from this booth right here, it tasted like green tea. 


The powerful and inspirational Gabrielle Union, was on the Main Stage discussing what beauty means to her and why she created her new hair care line Flawless.




My absolute favorite part of BeautyCon was meeting the lovely MahoganyCurls at the As I Am booth. MahoganyCurls was very sweet and friendly, we had a small chat and took a few pictures together. She is one of my favorite Natural Hair YouTube Gurus. I also met Bryshere Gray aka Yazz the Great from Empire. I took a picture of him however, due to the crowd it did not come out that well. Other Influencers and Content Creators, I had the luxury of seeing were Kandee Johnson, Shannon Boodram (Remember Those Girls Are Wild?), and the gorgeous Alba Ramos also known as SunKissAlba



Overall, I have a wonderful time at BeautyCon New York City, and I cannot wait to attend again next year. I really loved receiving a free t-shirt from the Pretty Little Thing clothing company, and what a coincidence the t-shirt was in my size! I found that with a General Admission pass, I still had access to a lot of things versus having the Social/Hauler package.  The overload of pink, unicorns, and confetti was surreal. BeautyCon is truly a magical place to visit!!! To learn more about BeautyCon, you can visit their website here. Stay tuned for a follow up post on the makeup and different products I received at BeautyCon.
