Where to Buy Makeup & Beauty Supplies in Santee Alley + A Giveaway! - Now Closed

The hottest trend in Santee Alley right now? Makeup! Just a year ago makeup was something you purchased from small booths throughout the alley as you walked in and out of clothing stores, but the makeup market has exploded. Not only are more stores starting to carry makeup and beauty supplies, we've seen new stores open dedicated entirely to makeup and beauty products: HM Hormiguitas, Nature Republic, Bella al Natural, and now Iyalorde.

Iyalorde is a makeup and hair tools distributor who sells to be public at wholesale prices. In addition to makeup, you'll find makeup brushes, beauty tools, eyelashes, hair straighteners and curlers, and even hair products. They carry popular brands like NYX, L.A. Girl, City Color, LUV, and HerStyler, as well as their own line of hair tools, "Iyalorde".

The Ilorde curler set comes with five different hair wand attachments allowing you to create mulitple sized curls with one wand. This set is sold exclusively at Ilorde. Because you are buying direct the cost is significantly lower than similar products at your local beauty supply store.

In celebration of their grand opening, we've teamed up with Iyalorde to giveaway a LUV hair straightener! You can enter the giveaway via the Rafflecopter widget below.

Where to Buy Handbags Direct From the Manufacturer

BIC Plus is a handbag manufacturer, importer, distributor, wholesaler, and as of recently retail vendor. After years of distributing to handbag stores in the Fashion District, BIC Plus finally opened to the public four months ago, offering retail customers the same pricing as large-quantity buyers. Prices for handbags start as low as $8 and go as high as $25 for better quality purses and materials. Wholesale prices are even more affordable. The average price for a higher quality purse is $18. Wholesale pricing is also offered to shoppers who purchase 12 or more pieces. Friends can combine their purchases and mix and match to reach the minimum.

Why is BIC Plus able to offer such low pricing? Not only do they import and distribute large quantities, they also manufacture many of their own styles. When you purchase from BIC, you are purchasing directly from the source, cutting out the middle-man costs. At any given time, you will find approximately 20 styles that are exclusive to BIC. You won't find them anywhere else in the district.

You can view their inventory or order online at www.FantasticPlus.com. Visit their Facebook page at www.Faceboom.com/FantasticPlus to stay up to date on the newest styles and specials.

Visit BIC Plus at 1030 Maple Ave. Los Angeles, CA.
