This year’s program includes live demonstrations from local, interstate and international artists and students, runway shows and masterclasses from UK celebrity make-up artist Sean Maloney and Martha Mok.

The event will then finish with the avant garde finale, The Four Elements produced by French-born award-winning hair stylist Fabian Maillot, of Yokine, and Kingsley’s Sandy Tau as lead make-up artist.

Also taking part is Tapping resident Pearlin Bracewell who last year she won the face art category and came third in avant garde following a third-place finish in the 2016 beauty make-up and ready-to-wear hair category.

The event will be hosted by Mack Reid – former contender for Sophie Monk on The Bachelorette – and graphic and street artist Hans Bruechle.
