Essence Fest goodies

This past Saturday, I attended the free event for Essence Fest in New Orleans. I live 25 minutes away from New Orleans, so I attend almost every year. If you ever want to attend, it is located at the Morial Convention Center. It is free to the public, and you can snag free goodie bags. You can also purchase items from vendors. If you want to attend next year, word of advice is to come early, because the lines for the free goodies can get extremely long.

🛍Brand: Camille Rose: Free bag; style foam was $10

Chasing Curlz: purchased leave in, twisting cream, and edge control

Salt XO: purchased Aloe Cucumber wash

Bobbie Miché’: purchased rollerball ( Dreamy); smells amazing 😍

Nouvo Body: purchased Konjic & Tumeric face and body wash

Ecoslay: purchased banana cream deep conditioner and orange marmalade curl definer

Brown Sugar Babe: free goody bag with body oil sample ( Pink Poundcake smell so delicious 😍)
