Recently I was invited to a gifting event by Celebrity Connected, and got to try out many new products by some amazing entrepreneurs. What makes it so special is that you get to see just how much work is involved behind a business, while at the same time bumping into celebrities and influencers all under one roof. You come in empty handed, only to leave wishing you had more hands to carry all of the new products you get to walk away with- for free. It’s beyond me how I was able to get on their invitation list!

(Me and my friend Chloe at the event- I think we were pretty happy with our swag!)

Here’s what we got as soon as we entered the floor:

A really nice swag bag from Stare cosmetics, which was filled with:

2 Lipsticks

2 Lipglosses

2 Lip Balms

1 Lip Liner

2 Eye Liners

1 Mascara

1 Bronzer

Mirror

Eye Shadow Palette

Facial Brush Sponge

Dual Sharpener

Exclusive Organizer Bag (to put all these in for traveling- or just everyday use, which you can find here)

More info on each product can be found at Stare Cosmetics.
