Make-up MASTERS

Big-name MUAs and amateur artists alike battled it out to take home top prizes at the Warpaint North Make-up Championships 2018.

The one-day competition, which took place at Professional Beauty North on October 22, saw competitors go head to head in four categories, with judges examining how well they interpreted the theme, applied product, and showed off different techniques and origfinality.

There were student and professional divisions in each category other than Real Beauty, which was a student-only category this year. PB
