So back on the 10th April I headed off to Limericks Absolute Hotel for the Elite Munster Bloggers Event (#embnbloggersevent). The weather was beyond crap as per usual but I had such a fun trip up in the car with my friends and fellow cloggers Marie from @thebeautmum and Joyce from @makemeupmua. It was a rare day without the kids for me and I enjoyed it from the moment I hopped in Joyce's car.
We arrived in the @absolutehotel in Limerick with time for a cuppa and a scone and to have the chats with some fellow bloggers who had travelled from other parts of the country. Then we headed to the conference room.
There were stands for us to browse and shop with including The Body Shop,Stella and Dot, Cailyn, Mane'n'Tale and Meaghers Pharmacy.
Meaghers pharmacy gifted each one of us with an amazing box of treats to take home. Im currently trialling the products in the box and will add the links to this post when they are done.
The event kicked off with a makeup masterclass from the incredibly talented Laura Dempsey who worked her magic on the fabulously funny Jen (ToodollyMakeup). I picked up lots of tips so thank you much girlie's for sharing the secrets.
Next up was the lovely Caitriona from @RevolvePR,who gave us invaluable information on working with PR companies and brands. She also explained the importance of a media kit and what this should include. I really enjoyed Catrionas session and again picked up some very useful info.
Next up was the fab at 50 Kerry Manning who writes the blog Fabulicious Fifty. She is also a marketing strategist who talked about our Why? Why do we blog and how to make our individual blogs stand out. Such a lovely woman it was a pleasure to meet her.
After a break for lunch we had the fab Michael from educated machine go through the basics of wordpress. I found this very interesting even though I'm on blogger at the moment..who knows I might deflect to the other side lol
Next up was Emer from Debenhams and she showed us some of the SS16 fashion at Debenhams. She also talked to us about our free consultation with a personal stylist at Debenhams and that we could spend €50 instore.She also explained their Free bra fitting service...did you know you could be a different size bra depending on the brand??
Last but by no means least was Gillian from Meagher’s Pharmacy who talked about their online store and also very kindly gifted us all an amazingly packaged box of treats. I did my un-boxing on my snapchat( lipglossaddictc ) and couldnt believe how spoilt we were. Gillian then showed us the new Stylpro makeup brush cleaner. This is an incredible piece of kit that cleans and drys your makeup brush really fast. I hate cleaning my brushes so this is something I need to purchase. It does a fab job and its fun to watch.
I really enjoyed my day out at the Elite Muster Bloggers Event,It is always fun and inspiring to spend the day with fellow bloggers,sharing hints tips and ideas.
Thanks so much to the lovely Erin from Chasingrubychat & Stepheny from S2UBeauty&Blog(check out their blogs Erin’s Blog, Steph’s Blog )
Stay tuned for reviews of the fab products we received in our goody bags,
Till next time,
