Wow, what an incredible weekend. I had the honour of spending the last 2 days engrossed in all things beauty with 85 incredible beauty bloggers based in Australia. This weekend marked the inaugural Australian Beauty Bloggers Weekend (ABBW) here is Sydney and I can’t even begin to tell you how lucky each one of us felt to be involved. This event has been the love child of Jacie (You’ve Got Nall) and Kimmi (The Plastic Diaries) who came up with this weekend, organized it, and gathered all of the incredible sponsors who gave us 2 days filled with glamour and glitz. Beauty geeks (myself included) came from all over the country (Perth, Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane and everywhere in between) to network, learn, and share a glass of champagne with new found beauty companions.

Not only do I feel unbelievably grateful to be included considering there was a lengthy wait list of bloggers who would have loved to come, but I was one of the only (If not the only) American – I can’t wait to share with you, our readers in the States, what Australia has to offer! Stay tuned this week for several posts on the events of the weekend and exciting new products/tips. Thank you to everyone who made the dream that was this weekend become a reality. Can’t wait till next year!
