Emmy-winning artist Eve Pearl, who founded
the Eve Pearl cosmetics line and whose credits
include Saturday Night Live, InStyle and Vanity
Fair, is the third featured speaker.
IMATS Sydney is also a great place to shop: 30 of the best make-up and effects brands will show and
sell the latest make-up products and tools. Make-up pieces from film and television will be displayed in the
IMATS Make-up Museum. And in the Battle of the Brushes student make-up competitions, students will race
against the clock to create winning looks and take home trophies, cash and prizes. The beauty category is
themed The Elements, while the character category will have an Oz theme.
This is the last year—at least for a while—that IMATS Sydney will be held in this venue, which is set
to undergo construction next year. In 2014, the show will move to the Royal Hall of Industries in the city’s
Centennial Parklands.
In addition to the Sydney show, IMATS is held in Los Angeles in January; New York in April; London
in June; Vancouver, British Columbia in July; and Toronto in November. All events are produced by Make-Up
Artist magazine, a division of Key Publishing Group. Read in nearly 70 countries, the magazine was created in
1996 by Emmy Award-winning make-up artist Michael Key.
