Two of my favorite things have merged into one spectacular event. Beauty Products and QVC.
Apparently every Spring, QVC brings in all of its beauty product vendors into a kind of convention for its customers. The owners/reps for the beauty companies and the hosts all attend and staff the different booths. So you might see Leslie Blodgett (Bare Escentuals), Laura Geller, Nick Chavez, Dr. Denese, that super hot Ojon dude, or that lady that owns Philosophy. And anyone who has ever attended a convention knows its all about the freebies that you get from the booths. Free makeup & beauty products? Where do I sign up? Well here's the big kicker...they hand out FULL-SIZE products at the beauty bash!
Last year I caught wind of this event after it already occured. Someone who attended estimated that they got something like $1200 to maybe $2500 worth of free stuff. So this year I put it on my must do list! Nevermind the fact that QVC is located in Pennsylvania. Nevermind the fact that my friends are not insane enough to want to travel all the way there for some stupid beauty convention. Luckily, my mom is just as insane about beauty and QVC. When I told her about this last year, we decided that we needed to go together as an early Mother's Day present to ourselves. Yay for mother-daughter bonding over eye creams and lipstick!
QVC just released the information and we just booked our spot! We're going the first weekend in April and bringing an empty suitcase to bring all our goodies home in. We can't wait to tour the QVC studio and shop in their store. We hope to eat in a Cracker Barrell and see some historic sites, including Amish country.

About Me
- Kris
- I have many obsessions and they change frequently. I'm just fickle like that. So here's my little space to rant, vent, snark, squee, or cheer for my latest obsession. They vary from tv, books, movies, celebrities, beauty, clothes, shopping, websites, candy, work, etc. You get the idea. Basically anything that keeps my mind from actually being productive.

I am so freaking jealous I can't even begin to tell you. Do you think there might be room for me in one of those empty suitcases?!
Why have I never heard of this Beauty Bash? It sounds AWESOME! And how fun that you're going with your mom. You two will have a blast. Where in Pennsylvania is it? Are you going to be in cheesesteak country?
And here I thought all my friends would think I was crazy to fly across country and get a hotel to go to some beauty convention! I'll let you know how it goes and maybe we can get a group together for future years.
From what I can tell, the QVC headquarters are in a suburb of Philly, like 20 minutes outside, so we should be in central cheesesteak territory.
I'm soooo jealous! Just thinking of all those free samples ...
I've been to the Beauty Bash the past two years and am going again in a few weeks. You will love it!
