Purple Lab Speed Dating Take 2
August 2, 10
Told to you by Purple Lab’s one and only male intern, Vinnie…
When I first heard that I would be able to attend the second speed dating event taking place at the W Hoboken, I was immediately filled with anticipation. This was due the fact that I’ve been interning with Purple Lab since mid-June and I’ve heard countless stories about the FAMOUS Purple Lab Speed Dating event. I was also present upon the arrival of the Guinness World Record certificate in the mail, which managed to evoke a serious amount of excitement in the office.
Now, I would finally have the chance to experience the scene of a mega speed dating event first hand. Fortunately for the Purple Lab team, it was a bit smaller this time around but I’d say it was just as fun. Instead of organizing the event, Purple Lab was responsible for making over female daters before they began to meet the boys.

Armed with a full supply of Purple Lab products, Sharon, Julie, Eve and I were chauffeured by Todd to the W Hoboken. Upon setting up our products, I wasn’t sure what to expect by the crowd or the speed dating process in general. As the daters started pouring in, the women were immediately drawn to our products (can’t blaim them!).
Not knowing much about the application of make up (I’m more the office photographer/photoshopper/videographer), Julie and Eve did an awesome job of being pseudo make up artists for the night as I told the crowd about our lineup of double duty beauty products. Huge Lips Skinny Hips was a crowd pleaser as always, even drawing attention from the male speed daters! Continuing through the night, when women found themselves dateless, the Purple Lab team was ready for touchups.
The salon Toni & Guy did a great job of providing hair 911 style action and together we proved to be an unbeatable team. After the speed dating was finished, the crowd moved downstairs to indulge in the 80s tribute band in the living room. Julie and I walked around to do some sampling of the products to a lucky group of girls.
Overall, the event was a definite success. not only for the speed daters (I did see some getting cozy in the living room after) but also for the Purple Lab team.
Thanks to everyone who came out, we hope you found a match!
MWAH!
