Beauty pro division

The Makeup Show is an industry trade show that promotes networking, education and hands-on workshops. Unlike other Beauty trade shows, The Makeup Show focuses soley on the cosmetic industry. Run by the Powder Group and hosted at the Metropolitan Pavilion, last year’s event was a true cosmetics industry first with such industry giants as Sam Fine and Billy B. offering their expertise and well known brands such as M.A.C., Stila, Jane Iredale Cosmetics and Face Atelier educating makeup professionals on their brands. This year’s event is sure to be just as successful with 50 brands currently on the roster, including Shu Uemera, Awake Cosmetics and Becca Cosmetics, to showcase their products and promote their new lines.

This is a pro-only trade show and you must be an industry professional to be allowed entry into The Makeup Show; proof of profession and/or fashion/stylist/cosmetic student ID will be required, tickets must be purchased in advanced. My friend Elke von Freudenberg, who is a celebrity makeup artist, attended this event last year and said that the talents and education by Billy B. alone made it worth attending. Billy B. is on the schedule to once again grace those who attend with his exceptional wealth of talent.
