UPDATE: A few people have reached out regarding IMATS NYC since tickets are sold out.

The good news is that almost everyone here can get our Make-Up Artist Pro Card which will get you in free on Friday for our Pro day without a ticket. Better yet, most of you are eligible for our Gold card which gets you in free any day to all our shows. We just revamped our online application to make it very smooth and simple. The only thing I ask is if your wanting it time for the show is to apply ASAP so that my staff will have time to process the cards. Enjoy!

Oscar winner, Howard Berger will recreate his wicked witch make-up from OZ, The Great and Powerful Sunday morning during our Pro only hours. You will need the MA Pro Card to attend.

That's if it's mailed. For my MM friends, we can hold your card at registration for pickup if we can process it before we travel to the show.

Monday is the last day we can process Pro Cards. Tickets are selling for hundreds of dollars on ebay and craigslist. Soon we will have a fee for our Pro Card, but for now it's my gift to my colleagues.

Success = preparation + opportunity.

Does a esthetics certificate count as well ( I have not taken my state exam yet)? Also, what qualifies as a resume? I'm fairly new to professional makeup, so I apologize if this is a silly question

Not silly at all. We just recently added our Blue Pro Card for estheticians and cosmetologists. All you need is your license and ID. Check it out:

Michael, thanks for posting this. 
Time is constantly getting away from me and I forget to apply in time so that I can get in for pro day/morning on Friday. Last year it worked out (I paid) but once again I forgot to do the application and was too late in getting a ticket for Friday this year. I feel silly for being tardy but this posting took the fright out of looking silly, so I just sent it in. 
Thanks for sharing with us wink. I'll keep my fingers crossed I'm not too tardy as I want to be sure to snap up boxes and boxes of Velour Mink lashes wink
All the best with the show!
Dani~
