L’Oreal Paris Canada: Luminato 2012

Last Sunday, I was invited to attend the L’Oreal Paris Canada tent in Toronto at Luminato 2012 for a personal beauty session with L’Oreal official hair stylist Eric Del Monaco and official makeup artist Eddie Malter. I was beyond excited! These super talented guys do the hair and makeup at Fashion Week and Eddie hails all the way from Paris!

I was able to preview some of the new L’Oreal products landing in stores later this year and can honestly say, I’m already positive that a few of them will be huge successes. L’Oreal is launching their first ever BB cream, there will be new shades of the infamous Infallible Eye Colors and a balm/gloss/lipstick hybrid called Caresse, is expected to captivate consumers. Just to name a few…..

While I was getting my hair and makeup done, people were stopping by the “Red Carpet Gifting Lounge” for their chance to win a hair, make-up or nail styling from one of L’Oreal’s  on-site beauty artists.  The Gifting Suite also had products up for grabs for other lucky winners.

One of my favorite hairsprays ever

The finished makeup look. My beautiful loosely curled “beach waves” succumbed to the scorching heat that afternoon, so at the time of this photo, I had already pulled my hair back
