I have raved about Pure and Simple several times-so when I received an invitation to a launch event for the new line of skin products for rosacea, I jumped at the chance to attend! It was held at the Bata Shoe Museum-absolutely perfect!
Here’s what I looked like going in-not that it matters a ton, but I rather liked my ensemble so there!
Hair by Dylan (of hair n after) and makeup by moi!
And the back of the updo:
Yay-look at the string hanging out of my dress…..#fail.
Now, for the space-this was just a lovely setup-cozy yet enough room to move.
Guests mingling, sampling, noshing
tealights on each of the stairs-nice touch!
Presentation space
Glasses for anti-inflammatory tea! No alcohol here-it tends to inflame sensitive skin!
Kristen gave a brief presentation on the new line-why she created it, what the products are intended for (during which she was staring at me….I later found out that apparently I am the ‘Poster Pitta’-people with Rosacea often have a strong Pitta component, Ayurvedically speaking). She answered questions afterward-people were picking her brain!
Before and after the talk, there were opportunities to try all of the products (and purchase them at a discount), as well as have tea and Hors d’oeuvres. David’s Tea was also on hand with 2 fantastic teas to try (and so nice to meet Anna from David’s Tea!)
Kristen also had door prizes, which were incredible! I didn’t win any, but Elaine of TOBeauty Reviews certainly did. And what’s a launch event without an awesome gift bag?
lovely gifts from Holistic Vanity Launch!
I am so excited to try the products in the bag! I had a great time at this event and learned so much! I am looking forward to more from Holistic Vanity!
These products are available for purchase at Pure and Simple! Make sure you visit the Holistic Vanity website, as it has had a makeover and looks incredible!
Thanks to Kristen, Pure and Simple Staff, and all who put their effort into making this launch a success! I had a great time!
How’s your skin doing these days? Would a line specifically tailored to your skin concerns be of interest to you?

Great post! It really was a great night and I noticed you chuckling when Kristen was talking about Pitta personalities 😛 don’t worry we all have Pitta within us!!

@Elaine- I was. I went back and read about Pitta in Kristen’s book and it should’ve just said “Here’s how Meredith acts” lol.
It was nice to see you but I am still jealous you won an AWESOME prize!

Yum, David’s Tea!

@Mama Dukes it’s quite good! I actually bought the hot lips cinnamon tea and then recently the love tea which is chocolate and strawberries
