Imats 2010

post #1 of 43
Thread Starter 
January 30/31st - IMATS 2010 show

Noticed a thread about the IMATS a while ago but then I realised that I had missed it. Crap! Would love to go to the next one and I realise that it is a long way away but I would really like to arrange a meet up with some UK Specktra girls (or guys). Going on my own doesn't really appeal.
Let me know if you are interested in meeting up xx

Re: Imats 2010

Ahh crap. I'd really love love love to go but I can't afford to book anything right now since I've got to save up for a trip to Canada and a trip to Cancun by September </3

I guess we'll see how it goes.

Re: Imats 2010

I want to go, but none of my friends are bothered about coming, especially not for the price it is, so I'd loveee to meet up with some people! Haha.
Does anyone know if you'll be able to get a MAC pro card there?

Yeah you can, which is the only reason why I went this year. You pay £25 and fill in a form and it arrives 3 wks later.

The UK IMATS in comparison to the U.S one is crap IMO. My friend and I were shocked at how small it was. We expected way more brands to have stalls there. Maybe it was cos of the current economic climate ...I dunno, but I expected far more considering how expensive the tickets are.

We were pretty much done after browsing for an hour and a half but stayed a lil' longer to justify the effort spent getting there. You can see Ally Pally from my bedroom window but my friend had spent an hour driving up to me.

Re: Imats 2010

^ That's why I'm reluctant to go, but I really want to apply for a Pro card if they'll accept applications at the show again next year.

Re: Imats 2010

Dunno if you've heard the rumour, but IMATS may be pulling the plug on the Pro cards as some people complained to MAC about a YT'ers (Lollipop26) video expressing her glee at getting one back in January.

It's just a RUMOUR at present so don't freak out, but just keep it in mind for next year as nothing lasts forever.

Here's her blog post:

Re: Imats 2010

I was at this a couple of years ago and I have to say its not as big as I thought it would be, really good seminars etc and MAC had a bodypainting demo that was just AWESOME!! Has anyone been to the LA one? I live in Ireland, but I'd LOVE to go the American one!!

Re: Imats 2010

I would love to go. Since I live in Sweden it would take a little more planning and saving to take me to U.S but London mayby it could work 2010...
Does anyone know how much the tickets is?

Re: Imats 2010

Me and one of my girls are going too! We're gonna book flights and our hostel soon, just because it's cheaper now. I know the IMATS in the US is always fab and that the one in London has less brands and probably less people, but some of us can't afford to go to America, so this will have to do!
We are so excited nontheless. We are not those kind of people who complain about everything, so even a "small" make up event will be exciting for us

Re: Imats 2010

i'm with Moxy! i'd love to be able to afford to go to an american one! but i can't

i'm thinking of going to imats on the 30th because i will be in london the day after anyways most likely on my own though because none of my friends are into make up

Re: Imats 2010

Yeah, I heard about the pro-card thing on Twitter ): Makes me quite sad, I suppose, because I really wanted one, haha. Oh well, I'll see what happens between now and Christmas.

Re: Imats 2010

^^ Me too, we'll see what happens about the whole pro card fiasco...

BTW, does anybody have a list of brands that were at london imats last year? I've searched far and wide and found no lists, just some random photos but the only 2 brands I saw for sure on those photos were MAC and MUFE... anybody? Would be good to have a list ready and to know how much money approximately to save

Re: Imats 2010

Re: Imats 2010

I want to go to this as I really need to pick up some brushes more than anything really though I'm sure buying some makeup won't hurt
