MAKEUP IN NEWYORK IS CELEBRATING ITS FIFTH BIRTHDAY

THIS YEAR!

5 years of continuous growth that have made it the premier color cosmetics trade show in North America! At this year’s MakeUp in NewYork, we will once again have the pleasure of teaming up with our friends, the Students of the Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing Program of the Fashion Institute of Technology. Virginia Bonofiglio and her students have been working with us since the second year of MakeUp in NewYork. This year will also be the first time we embark on two very special journeys: * A new relationship with the CEW and its members * A nationwide packaging contest featuring 18 teams from six different colleges and universities across the USA.
