The 2009 CEW Beauty Awards.
/The highlight of my trip to New York last week, which just so happens to be one of the best things about my career in beauty writing, is the CEW (Cosmetic Executive Women) Beauty Awards.
This was my 8th year in attendance to the CEW Beauty Product Demonstration and it is the night for beauty lovers. With almost 600 products from 280 brands being demonstrated, I got to touch, feel, smell, and experience the best in beauty. It is so fun to see which brands submit which products. At the same time, it is very exciting to discover new products and brands. Some brands that I have yet to hear of. Products I have yet to try.
All together, there are 28 categories which are broken down into Mass and Prestige categories.
Of the products I have yet to try, I have my eyes on the following...
CHANEL Précision Balance Rinse-Off Foaming Mousse Cleanser - This felt so wonderful on my hand as it took off the makeup I had tested out on it before trying.
Kate Somerville Exfolikate - I have read so much about this and was even more intrigued once I got a tiny test of it at the demonstration.
Nature Pure Labs Black Currant Anti-Aging Instant Energizer - This is a brand I never heard of, and if this cleanser is any indication of how well the products work, I can't wait to check out even more from them. The cleanser foams up as it is clearing out the toxins from the skin and it feels insanely wonderful. And I only used it for about 30 seconds on my hand. I cannot wait to give this a full on try.
