BeautyPress Spotlight Day

BeautyPress Spotlight Day 2015

Last Tuesday I had the pleasure of attending the final beautypress Spotlight Day of 2015. This media showcase featured a diverse group of skin care, hair care, cosmetics and fragrance brands. The bright and airy Midtown Loft & Terrace provided a perfect setting to discover and connect. Here is a brief introduction of the exhibitors I was introduced to.

Ohlala, how fun! Thanks for the tip about Spa Week coming up - a massage sounds up my alley. Also, I'd look into some of these skincare brands but I feel like I have my hands full already with the crazy number of Korean skincare brands out there.

That's a lot of skincare choices you just through out there. I've been suffering from skin problems for a long time, so I might look into some of these products.

May Cho said...

All of these brands sound interesting, honestly, but I'd say that the VisaoMD range piqued my interest the most. I've not heard of any brand that specializes in bearcare, so BlueBeards was pleasantly surprising, too!

I find all of them very interessting, except from the last one because I don't have a beard but I do think that there is place for bluebeard on the market because beards are becoming very trendy with men. I'm not a fan of facial hair, but it is always nice to see somebody do something they want and feel comfortable with, so I'm not against beards even if I honestly don't like beards on most men. Fortunately my husband doesn't plan to grow one anytime soon:)!

Most of these products does sound fantastic. It is amazing how far the beauty and care skin products have come! everyday there is some new product, new treatment...it's great. Someday we might all really have perfect skin.

I will love to try the treatment mask that sound so relaxing after a stressful day.

This is a gorgeous event because it's such a good introduction to brands that I have never heard of. I really like CōTZ, never heard a sunscreen like that before and that really piqued my curiosity.

Bluebeards is such a funny, but I'm guessing much needed line for that segment!
I remember Spa Week and had a certificate to one of their spas a few years ago. I'm curious about CoTZ now. Thanks for the review!
Sorry for being MIA. Life has been insane personally and professionally but I'm glad i could pop by!

It must be nice to live in NYC, as I see many NY bloggers talk about so many great events. I will have to check into the Bluebeards for my bf. The CheryLee MD products also sound promising. :)

Hi Rowena, what an amazing event. All products sound interesting. Of course I have no need for Bluebeards :D I have never heard of Arts and Scents although they are a German brand. I would love to try their fragances :D Besides that I wouldn't mind to try Elvis and Elvin. Wish you a happy Tuesday. Hope you had a great time at the event :D

I love how there is a National Spa Week - what a great excuse for some nice treatments. The Arts and Scents sounds like my kind of thing. I love mixing scents and yes, it is quite a big thing in Europe. We did it for our wedding X

Ahhh Rowena,

Looks like a great kind of event to get to know more beauty brands. I have not heard of any of the brands here but it sounds like quite some TLC sort of beauty brands here. The one that got me curious is the last one, Bluebeards. I never knew that there is such brand that caters to even such needs.

Why didn't I think of that, huh? Cool.

An eye opener for me, haha. Enjoy the rest of your week, Rowena!

And yes, the bad haze is still haunting us... I am so wishing for a clear blue sky right about NOOOWWW! please. and I am glad to hear that the humidity level in NYC has gone down. But like you said, there is plenty of time to be cool when winter hits, ya? haha

Cheers,
Jeann
