IMATS Photos!

Hi Everyone!

As we said, we have a ton of photos from IMATS! This post is very picture heavy and may take a little bit to fully load, but we promise the photos are worth the short wait!

Here are some photos of our booth when we were setting everything up. We had 101 total gift bags for the Students, Press, and Department Heads. Here we're putting the finishing touches on our bags.

IMATS Recap!

This past weekend Nailene was an exhibitor at the International Makeup Artist Tradeshow, also known as IMATS! IMATS is one of the biggest makeup trade shows out there, attracting both industry professionals and consumers.

As many of you already know, our nails provide a professional salon look in just minutes. With a suggested retail price of 3.99-5.99, our nails are an affordable option for professionals and consumers alike. Nailene Nails are easy to apply and remove, they are very comfortable to wear, and they photograph beautifully!

IMATS was a fabulous experience for us and we were thrilled to be able to share our products with the Show. We donated products in our exclusive Nailene Bags to the Student Competition, The Press, and the Department Heads. Everyone loved it! On Sunday we sponsored the Fashion Show- A Century of Hollywood Brides- with The Knot and Make Up For Ever. Our favorite manicurist Vicki Peters worked backstage alongside Dany Sanz and the MUFE team. Eight of the most beautiful Ford Models ever graced the runway wearing Nailene Nails and gorgeous wedding dresses. We have lots of photos to go through from the runway and backstage so we’ll post them ASAP! Thank you to everyone that made the fashion show such a success! It was phenomenal!

Throughout the course of IMATS, we provided complimentary samples to the attendees. We really wanted to give everyone a chance to fall in love with Nailene! We actually ran out of product before the show was over and we apologize if you came to our booth and left empty handed. But as we promised, we are very easy to find in mass retail and the drugstores so please visit our Featured Retailers page to find Nailene near you!

IMATS was also fantastic because it gave us an opportunity to meet many of our Beauty Bloggers in person. Thank you to those of you that stopped by to say hello! We were thrilled to meet you!

If you were at IMATS please make sure to leave a comment and tell us what you thought of the Show!
