It was my 5th year of attending the Natural Products West Expo and I must say that this was my favorite show thus far! The Expo is an enormous gathering of hundreds of vendors, introducing the latest technology and products in the health food, supplement, and beauty industries. It’s a trade show that’s different than most of the others I attend, because the vendors truly want you to explore, taste and experience what they have to offer and are happy to offer up samples of their goods to take home and enjoy (or sometimes not enjoy, I’m looking at you, Mama Chia!) at your own pace. I was able to take a couple shots, amidst all of the craziness..

A couple of my favorite vendors..
And now, for my wonderful haul!

So much tasty new stuff to try.

Here, all of my beauty finds.. I was especially happy to come across the booths for Nourish Organics, Acure, and Aubrey Organics! They definitely hooked it up, and I can’t wait to try some of their new products (especially this eye cream from Nourish).
