IMATs: Makeup, Wheelchairs and Bloggers. Oh My!

As you may have guessed from the title I went to IMATs London this Saturday.
I'm sorry, I just want to take a moment and bask in that statement. I went to IMATs. ME - the chronically ill chick who has to use a wheelchair which she can't push - went to IMATs in London, which boils down to a loud, busy room full of makeup people, a 4hr drive away from home.

Please excuse photo quality, they were taken on my little camera which isn't very good


And it was incredible. The best single day I think I have ever had, and something that never would have happened if I hadn't gotten sick. Weird.
Anyway, this post isn't about me getting misty eyed and saying amazing over and over again until you are screaming, "And?!?" at the screen, it's about my experience, what the disability access was like and - more importantly - what I bought.

Skin 79 VIP Gold BB Cream

So BB Creams. Yeah I know. If you're not rolling your eyes right now and trying not to barf you are made of sterner stuff than I am. But please try to hear me out :)
I'm pretty sure you all know the history of BB Creams by now - famous European plastic surgeon made it for his patients, got back to Asia and became huge there before it eventually made it's way back to Europe. But obviously BB creams, like any makeup, are different depending on where you are. European BB creams are like fashionable tinted moisturisers and Asian BB creams can be used as a foundation substitute for example.

So, I thought I'd try out Asian BB Creams, and where better to start than with the Skin 79 ones?
