The Makeup Show not only offered great presentations, there were also a few beauty gems amongst the vendors as well.
Amongst those definitely worth checking out were:

@Design Makeup Brushes
A highlight at the show, @Design Brushes showed brushes that were new and different.
Like this 'Pointed Foundation Brush'.
I bought it, tried and and am in love with it. It's a different feel, handles being solid and almost heavy in the hand, but once I had the chance to work with it, this dense brush offered great blendability for more detailed work in foundation. It worked great around the nose, chin, tops of cheekbones, around the eyes, where sometimes the normal flat foundation brush can feel too stiff or hard to control. Their brushes are lush and beautifully made in China, and you will soon be able to purchase them from **Amazon.com** in a few weeks. Beautiful.
Face atelier
Looking for an amazing foundation? Check the widely popular in Canada foundation + primer. You heard right, it's foundation and primer all in one. I bought and played with it and I admit, it's one of the best foundations I've ever used. It gives a ultra-perfect look to the skin, without looking heavy, mask like or cakey. We're talking flawless. What I liked even more? Sheers, their liquid illuminators that you can mix into the base or apply on top for the most beautiful from the skin glow you've ever seen. In Opal, Champagne, White Gold, Peach and Bronze. I'm definitely using these on my next photo shoot. You can even order sample sizes. Free shipping for $75 orders to US.
