August 3rd, 2012. Such an amazing day because it was the day I attended Lancome's Makeup Masterclass in Myer's Mural Hall, where I met one of my biggest beauty idols...
MICHELLE PHAN!!

For those of you who don’t know her, Michelle is a world-renowned YouTube makeup artist with more subscribers than Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian COMBINED, and she has the most amazing, creative, and useful makeup tutorials!
Check her out, I have learned so much from her videos! They're super easy to follow, and it's such a bonus that she’s such a warm spirit - it’s just like learning from a friend :)

Visit Michelle Phan’s YouTube Channel.
For someone to have started out in her room making videos on her webcam, to being one of the world’s most well-known makeup artists, Michelle is proof that dreams can come true, and she is such an inspiration to me. It was such an honor to meet her, and I’m still a bit dazed. I can’t believe it really happened!!
The event included a talk by Michelle about her top beauty tips, a meet and greet, plus free makeovers and makeup consultations. The $50 ticket was also redeemable for Lancome products, and you'll see what I spent mine on later in the post!
Here are the photos from the day:

The lovely Tally, who is the loveliest event buddy ever <3 You might remember her from my post on Mecca Cosmetica's Top 100 Beauty Stars event. |
You'll see more of my outfit below :) OOTD: Coat - The Coat Department, Myer Dress - Stylestalker Tights - Razzamatazz Shoes - Miss Shop Necklace - Diva |
Sneaky train snaps ;) |
A lady on the train came up to us and offered to take this photo, saying, "You girls look so gorgeous, let me help take a photo of you both!" Awwww! |
Tally and I sported matching ring finger nail art. Leopard print nail applications, I'm in love with them! |
Waiting in line outside Mural Hall. |
I've always wanted to have one of these "red carpet" photos. Mission accomplished! ♥ ♥ ♥ Image © L'OrĂ©al Australia |
About 400 people showed up for the class, you could feel the excitement in the air! |
Cheeky champers! |
One of the delicious canapes - beef fillets with cheesy mash, spinach and chestnuts! My, weren't we spoiled! |
We were a few rows from the front!! |
On our seats was Michelle's makeup tutorial booklet and the newest copy of Emporium, Myer's fashion magazine. |
How gorgeous is the architecture in Mural Hall! |
All the makeup artists on stage ready to demonstrate some gorgeous makeup looks! |
Michelle said she loves how Australians wear so much colour. Go Aussies! |
How pretty is her hair style? Hopefully she does a tutorial on this one! |
Waiting in line to meet Michelle for the meet and greet. She shook my hand and I nearly fainted haha |
THE BEST GOODIE BAG. |
Lancome's Multi-Relief Anti-Stress Moisturising Cream |
Lancome's Sensitive Eyes Instant Cleanser |

Soooo, what did I spend my $50 voucher on...?

I can't believe how incredibly lucky you were to be spoilt at such an event! Your outfit was absolutely gorgeous too! Love the lace sleeves :) Can't believe your canapes were so luxuriant, look at that beef! And you were star struck, I think I would be if I was there haha -- and Michelle Phan looks so photogenic on every angle right?! That goodie bag has seriously got to be one of the best, you're right, and a very wise choice with the glamour pack - can't wait for that post :) Or the lip tattoo haha, the innovations with makeup these days. Your cheery smile summed up the post so well, hehe so much glee :)
ReplyDeleteI know!! I totally didn't expect there to be canapes and a red carpet and a meet and greet! I felt just like a celebrity, it was so much fun :) Aww thank you! She is, isn't she :D I was stunned to meet her, such a memorable moment :) And yes, look out for a post using Michelle Phan's makeup kit soon! Aww you're so lovely as always Bambi :) <3 <3 xx
