EVOLUE ECO-CHIC VENDOR NIGHT<\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, when I was at the Bag Lady event I told you about last week, I won a gift certificate to Evolue, an eco-conscious beauty shop on Robertson. I also got invited to an event they were having a couple of evenings later, so I figured that I’d kill two birds with one stone.<\/p>\n

Only, I forgot to use the cert because the event was so fun! It was to introduce us to their \u201ceco-chic vendors personally,\u201d while letting us know about the \u201cnext moves in the fight for safer cosmetics.\u201d Always a good thing.<\/p>\n

As we entered, we received a re-usable bag, like on Halloween, and then we basically went \u201ctrick-or-treating\u201d to the sponsors who explained their products and then gave us small samples, based on our needs or likes. The soiree was packed yet intimate.<\/p>\n

There was also a non-intrusive DJ and a bar with interesting-looking fruity-type drinks, but, as many of you know by now, I hate the taste of alcohol, (and lemons and limes, and just about everything else they had that other people love,) so I had to sit that part out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I discovered more than just good-for-you new entries into the world of skin care and cosmetics; I also discovered this lovely little neighborhood! Of course, everyone in my area of L.A. knows about, and has been to, Robertson Blvd., but I never walked around it on a summer’s eve before. I had parked \u201cdown the road a piece,\u201d in my new effort to get back to walking more, so I realized that people who live around there can just walk to everything they could possibly need to do.<\/p>\n

And I picked-up dinner from an excellent little Thai place on the block, Thai Boom. Mr. X was thrilled with his fare, and I was happy enough. Now I’m glad that I didn’t use my Evolue gift card that night because now I have an excuse to go back to that ‘hood.<\/p>\n
