Marie Claire + Sephora Earth Day Beauty Event

On Thursday night, I attended the Marie Claire and Sephora Earth Day Beauty event. It featured makeup artist, Josie Maran, and her makeup team giving people free makeovers. They used earth-friendly formulas. Also, Edun's eco-friendly collection was on display around the store.

There was a DJ spinning great music, and a raffle for a $100 gift card to Sephora. Unfortunately, I didn't win that. However, later on, Marie Claire's Health Director - Ying Chu - interviewed Josie Maran on the balcony. They discussed favorite beauty products as well as using products that are appealing yet still eco-friendly. Josie Maran mentioned that she liked & preferred products that are versatile and have many uses; she highly recommended the Organic Argan oil that could be used for the face, body, hands, and bath. I personally like the idea of having a product with many uses, mostly because you really do get the bang for your buck.
Free bottles of Hint Water were being given out as well. It's basically unsweetened essence water, and they make it taste sweet using the oils of the fruit itself. There's zero calories, zero preservatives, and zero sweeteners. My sample was the Pomegranate-Tangerine flavor, and it tasted great!

Overall, the event definitely fit in with the theme of being eco-friendly & for Earth Day - everything from the fashion, makeup, drinks, to the interview.

P.S. Happy Easter to those who celebrate it!
