3 OVERVIEW CLICK TO VIEW OUR IBE LA 2017 VIDEO RECAP The Indie Beauty Expo returned to Los Angeles January This year s event was held at the California Market Center and showcased over 100 indie beauty brands from around the globe. IBE LA began with the launch of CONNECT INDIE, a full day dedicated to learning, knowledge-sharing and networking among exhibitors, brand founders, and industry experts. An hour-long interview and Q&A with industry legend, Bobbi Brown, capped off this amazing day. Day 2 kicked off with a two-hour VIP press and media event, during which we also announced IBE s 2016 Best In Show winners. Then followed SHOP INDIE, where hundreds of indie lovers got to try and buy from some of the best beauty brands on the market. Day 3, known as TRADE INDIE, was focused on trade professionals where buyers came to find the next hot brands to add to their retail collection. Both show days were filled with activations from Thistle and Seed flower crowns, DJ Colette spinning tunes, a brow and lip bar by The Brow gal, hair touch-ups by Arrojo and as well as other amazing demos and panel presentations. 3

12 While social media platforms like Instagram, Pinterest and Etsy are undeniably amazing resources for discovering small-batch artisanal beauty, nothing beats touching and feeling product. Buyers seem to agree as giants like Whole Foods and Sephora, as well as small yet influential startups like goop, Violet Grey and Detox Market, all attend to check out the offerings from over 80 carefully-vetted brands. -FORBES 12

13 To get a look at what s next in beauty, we headed to the Indie Beauty Expo in L.A., the event s first stop where nearly 100 burgeoning brands are sharing their wares. As you may expect, it didn t disappoint......check out the coolest and craziest beauty buys of the show and take note: this is the stuff you, me, and everyone we know will go crazy for in six months from now. -REFINERY 29 13

14 From beautiful floral crowns by Thistle & Seed, to gorgeous oversized floral walls for your photos and Boomerangs delight, IBE brought the education, information and inspiration for the blooming category of indie beauty. -THOUGHTFULLY MAGAZINE 14

15 Peninsula Beauty, whose chief beauty officer Lori Silverstein revealed during a panel she s culling products from major conglomerates to make way for smaller players on the California specialty chain s shelves, wouldn t have descended upon the second edition of Indie Beauty Expo in Los Angeles if there wasn t supercharged consumer demand for cosmetics upstarts. -WWD 15

16 Another interesting facet is the trade shows, in particular Indie Beauty Expo. I always find two or three brands that I hadn t heard about that turn out to be very important. For such a new show it s really well organized they really have their stuff together. -ROMAIN GAILLARD IN DAY SPA MAGAZINE 16

17 Exhibitors favor their indoor voices with warm smiles and a light touch. The result is a relaxed, spa-like environment, which gives shoppers the option to pause and truly consider any given product without feeling pressured to buy. -AGENDA 17

18 The exciting part? Bobbi offered to be a part of this exciting event. If you re wondering why an accomplished entrepreneur would have any interest in a show dedicated to small indie brands, she summed it up in a word: Inspiration. -WOM CITY 18

19 There s an indie beauty revolution happening and Indie Beauty Expo is its epicenter. -RICHARD MAGAZINE 19
