IMATS London 2013 is just 10 days away and my excessive use of exclamation marks should just express to you how excited I am!!!!
Instead of filming this tag, I though I would include it in this post.
Which IMATS are you attending?
I will be attending the London Imats 2013
At the Olympia National Hall Kensington
Public event: 23rd June 10am-5pm
Have you ever been to IMATS before?
No. This will be my first IMATS and I can’t wait to be surrounded by endless amounts of make-up! I have been waiting for this day since I first heard about this trade show over a year ago. I am not sure what exact discounts there will be, but I heard they will be darn good. Instead of having the London IMATS at the beginning of the year, it was unfortunately rescheduled for later in the Summer which in turn, should result is better weather… fingers crossed >_<
How are you getting there?
I will be getting the Train to London and taking the tube/ bus to get around when I get there.
Are you bringing anyone along?
I will be meeting up with Jade from The Beauty Butterfly along the way and meeting some other bloggers when I get there which should be fun fun fun!
Is there anything else in the IMATS host city that you want to see?
Lots! I want to shop at shops we don’t have here where I live like Forever 21, Harrods, Liberty to name a couple and M&M world would be good too but I know I won’t be able to cram all that in.
What days will you be in the city that IMATS is in?
I will be in London for the whole weekend.
Who do you want to meet there?
I would love to meet both youtubers and bloggers that I have been following for ages, whether I have the guts to go up to them or not is another story.
What companies exhibits are you most excited to see?
Out of the list of participating exhibitors here, I can’t wait to see:
Hakuhodo
Inglot
Laboratoires Embryolisse
Love Make Up
MAC Cosmetics
Make-up Designory (MUD)
Make Up For Ever Paris
Naked Cosmetics

What products are you looking for?
I have a long list but some of the things are:
How much do you plan to spend?
Ohhh this is tricky because it depends on what I see on the day. But I have saved up for this so… maybe around £300.
What do you want to get out of IMATS?
The experience and a new set of makeup! I am looking forward to hearing talks by influential makeup artists and professionals throughout the days. Speakers for IMATS will include Oscar-winning artists Joel Harlow (Star Trek, the Pirates of the
Caribbean films) and Mark Coulier (World War Z, The Iron Lady), and BAFTA-winning artist Neill Gorton (Saving
Private Ryan, Doctor Who). London-born runway veteran Kabuki will also be speaking.
West End artists will share their stories
in the panel discussion “Working in Theater.”
Celebrated make-up artist Kazuhiro Tsuji will
also appear at IMATS London for the first time ever.
The full schedule of speakers can be found here.
I definitely will do a haul and updates on instagram when I do go (@mintyessence) so look out for that!
Thanks for reading!
