MAKE UP FOR EVER
'
I set up the MAKE UP FOR EVER Academies in order
to share the magical world of transforming faces
and bodies with makeup. For as long as I can
remember, I’ve been passionate about passing
on this vibrant art. Every makeup artist has a
vast palette of skills, and by sculpting light and
mixing textures, they bring their models to life
with poetic flair, with anything being possible.
In this profession, by being imaginative, precise
and tenacious, you will blossom… FOR EVER.”

the power of transformation and the beauty
of metamorphosis – not many schools do

'
Professional makeup artistry has been the answer to long
years of searching for balance. Today I cannot imagine being
anywhere else than in this business. I was in touch in Europe
with the world of fashion, stage art, movies... in other words,
everything I was dreaming of since I was a teenager still living
in Ecuador (South America), my country of origin. After eight
years spent at the Brussels Academy as Director of Artistry and
Education, I am proud to share my experience in international
makeup artistry with the MAKE UP FOR EVER founder’s vision.
Being now based at the NY Academy, my goal is to answer our
customers’ needs in specific technical fields of expertise by
creating the most comprehensive intensive program line-up.”

FACULTY
The MAKE UP FOR EVER Academy offers an all-encompassing
program that broadens nurtures and fosters artistic
creativity and abilities. Teaching students the art of balance
while tapping into artistic vessels enables them to explore
their artistry while cultivating their skills. The program
develops creative potential, trains the eye on precision for
various industry platforms, and enables the artists to develop
relationships with industry professionals and create career
opportunities while they are still attending the Academy. The
program is a vehicle that stretches students beyond makeup
to explore various artistic realms that relate to makeup.
Vacillating between the larger overall creative look and the
technical precision of Dany’s makeup techniques are what
make our artists skillful and successful.”
Jennifer Evans, Teacher
'
At the Academy, we don’t just craft makeup…
We share our expertly developed techniques,
encourage and develop the student’s creative
abilities and focus on cultivating the best
makeup artists out there. I am so honored to be
able to pass on the techniques, creativity and
passion of Dany Sanz, which has inspired me, to
our artists.”
