Beauty Products inside the 50k + Emmy Swag Bags

  This weekend in Los Angeles, as the city geared up for the Emmy Awards, a series of gifting suites were going on all around town. According to such reputable sources as CNN,  the Emmy presenters and nominees can receive luxury gift bags offering products and vacations worth $50,000 USD.  S0 why do actors & actresses (who are so often very highly paid) get to receive even more gifts?   Brands participate in the gifting suites and the swag bags in the hopes of being placed in US stores for distribution via gaining celebrity brand recognition.  Every brand hopes to get a picture of  a celebrity caring their product for their marketing.   A big part of the goody (aka gifting or swag) bags is always beauty products.  I thought it might be fun to let my readers in on some of the products that were included in the gift bags according to Hollywood Swag Bags or other sources.  Surprisingly, not all the beauty picks were expensive.  Some of these beauty products can be found in your local drugstore.
