Imagine my surprise when @Beautycrazedcan a.k.a. Lisamarie asked yours truly if she was busy on August 20th. My curious self had to inquire as to why….and of course only Lisamarie could’ve had one of the best invites I have received this summer….why, a pout party of course! “Officially” this get together was to celebrate the launch of Sleek’s Pout Paint, which comes in 11 shades. Sounds exciting!
So I grabbed @akbeautytoronto (and forced a shared driving situation upon our significants) and off we went to the suburbs!
Not only are the suburbs lovely, so is Lisamarie’s home:
Let’s not forget the pink balloons and snacks:
Okay roll call-in attendance:
Lisamarie a.k.a. Beautycrazedcan
Jenny a.k.a. iceflurrie
Elaine a.k.a. TOBeautyreviews
Kerri a.k.a. akbeautytoronto
Melissa a.k.a. Melissa_Shum
Fiona a.k.a. Fionaman
Me! a.k.a. ettuandyou
Here’s a great shot of all of us taken by Lisamarie’s husband Neil:
and let us not forget the ‘lip whistles’ Lisamarie had on the table. Fiona certainly didn’t:
But let’s get down to the reason behind the get together, the Sleek Pout Paint:
So the long and short of it was that we were going to be able to mix our own lip glosses using these (primary color) pout paints! We were given a small container with a mixing spatula and off we went! We all had index cards to write down our custom creations. Here’s mine:
and the different stages of ‘creating’
So Lisamarie had us flip our index cards over and kiss them. Then we placed them on a wall and had us vote for our favorite (not our own). The kiss with the most votes was the winner:
Kerri also won a special box 🙂
Speaking of Melissa….she was kind enough to bring us all these fabulous CoverFX Mint Tint FX. Glad these were not part of the swap-I happen to like them and will get physical if they are taken out of my hands.
And as an added bonus, Kerri brought along her goodies (apotheKerri beauty and curiousities). Looks like the girls had a good time with this-everyone dove right in:
As if we weren’t having a good enough time, Lisamarie decided to throw a “yankee swap” into the mix. Oh boy, let the good times roll. In case you didn’t know, I can be a bit of a bully when I want something-especially a beauty related item. I won’t get into the rules of the swap but let’s just say everyone had an opportunity to take items from other people. It could’ve been much uglier but I behaved myself rather well. I do vaguely remember telling certain people that I would be waiting in the bushes for them afterwards. Vaguely. I could see fear in their eyes. So here’s what I ended up with:
Phew. That was a good time!
Thanks to Lisamarie for inviting me (I may not be asked to return 😛 )
I had a great time and love the Sleek Pout Paint!
Have you tried the new Pout Paint?
Ever participated in a “Yankee Swap”?
