Good morning, glory, and hey, hey, New York, gals! Anyone headed to The Makeup Show NYC this weekend? If you are, lucky! Also, here’s a quick look at some of the products making their debuts at the show.
These items were made exclusively for The Makeup Show’s 10-year anniversary (hence the special packaging for some of them, like the INGLOT lipsticks), and they won’t readily be available anywhere else.
For more info on The Makeup Show (which I wish I could attend this weekend), check them out online. I haven’t been to one yet, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed for someday.
P.S. My bright pink behemoth shelves arrived yesterday. Sadly, while unpacking it and getting everything ready to put everything, I realized — DOH! — there aren’t any bolts/screws. They’re straight-up MIA. I’m guessing that they might’ve fallen out of the box during shipping because it arrived with a couple of dinged corners.
So the giant frames are sitting in the middle of my office floor for now, but I’m not worried. I’ve still been making a lot of headway in the overall office reorganizing process. This is just a minor pink bump in the road…
But I can’t wait to put this dang thing together! It’s that combo of girly and tough/industrial at the same time. Totally my style, and I’m in love with the color, even though I think it looks more orchid than pink in person, doesn’t it?
Happy Wednesday to you! Have a spectacular, hopefully sunny day. It’s supposed to hit the ’80s out here in Novato.
P.P.S. I’m having problems, yo! 🙂 I just realized that I wrote Wednesday when I first published this post (thanks, Agata). Whoops! On the plus side, we’re one day closer to the weekend! Homegirl needs some help…
Agata says
Hey Karen, it’s actually Thursday 🙂 You said Happy Wednesday, lol.
I like this pink shelving, I bet it will look great in your office.
I have never been to a MakeupShow either but I really want to go one day!I believe there’s going to be one in Chicago in November and that’s probably the closest one to me that will ever be!
Agata says
Ha ha, who cares what day it is!? And you’re right- one day closer to the weekend and I am excited because I don’t have to work on Sunday this week 🙂
LindaLibraLoca says
An extra day off? What happened?
Agata says
I took a vacation day because we are going to a friend’s baby shower and since I work, I’d have to miss it!
Kiss & Make-up says
Happy We… wait, whut? *scratches head* Let’s just go with Happy Day! I wish we had make-up shows like that here!
Kim says
Ooh, those shelves are going to rock! Every possible surface of my office is always covered so I would love some shelving. 🙂 Awesome about the weather, too. We’re in the 60s today, which is fabulous. Baseball starts tomorrow so I have to break out my coaching hat (and I’ll have even less time to check in). 🙁

When you first posted about these shelves I clicked on the link, and now Amazon keeps recommending pink drills and pink hardware to me 😀
Kwmechelle says
Those new releases look awesome. I’ve heard that the MUFE palette swatches beautifully. And the brushes? *swoon*. As if I need more brushes. I, too, would love to go to the Makeup Show. Maybe one day. I think industrial chic is so cute. It’s beautiful here today & I’m going outside to play. Happy decorating!
Lisa says
Lovin’ the colour of those shelves!!
Tatiana says
I actually like those shelves better now that they’re closer to Tom Fords African Violet polish in color. Have to admit I’m not a huge fan of straight up pink. Is there a customer service line you can call to get replacement fasteners sent out? Ikea will do that if you open a box and the nuts and bolts are missing or off in any way.
I hear that there is going to be a Makeup Show pop up shop in San Francisco later this summer. August I think and it supposedly will be open to all not just bloggers and makeup artists in the industry.
Stephanie says
You had me fooled on the Wednesday thing – but then again I’m the one who thought it was Saturday while I was tossing and turning this morning…
Zovesta says
Yay! I’m so glad you’re getting everything all sorted out. =D
Holly says
I love the look of those London Brush Company brushes; I’ve never heard of them before. I think a makeup & beauty convention open to the public would be amazing!
LindaLibraLoca says
So many exciting new products!
Happy whatever to you and your pink bump in the hump (day)
Rachel says
You’re gonna love those shelves! Organizing is fun plus then you realize you have room to buy more stuff!
Fancie says
Lmao @ the slip up. Happens to the best of us! I so wish I was going to The Makeup Show this year. It looks like so much fun and then there’s all this pretty makeup! Those shelves look pretty interesting too. I’m definitely digging the pink! Hopefully, you get some screws and such cause I’d love to see the finished result!
