The Indie Beauty Expo LA, (January 23 and January 24) grew 25% from last year with a whopping 186 brands, but the exhibition space was noticeably smaller. The result was a souk-like marketplace with colorful stalls crammed together, music blaring, spotlights glaring, vendors hawking wares and people jostling each other to make deals. To top it off, the A.C. wasn’t working and it was sweltering. Perhaps that’s why so many brand owners seemed cranky and reluctant to offer samples/products for me to try and include in our swag bag. Many even asked to see instagram stats…the holy grail of millennial commerce, concluding it wasn’t worth their while, despite my having shown them last year’s article and CaFleureBon reporting each year from L.A. and New York. (Since 2016) The 2019 Indie Beauty Expo LA exhibitors was a TOUGH crowd!  Thanks to the exhibitors at The Indie Beauty Expo LA we have a ginormous swag bag of full and mini products for a registered reader in the CON US, including Sage Machado's Pearl oil rollerball.  The random winner is JenM.
