"Make-up artistry plays one of the most important roles in the beauty and fashion industry. This competition is designed to create opportunities for young and new talent and to give them a platform where they can be recognised for their talent and skills both locally and internationally," says Jackie Burger, editor of Elle. "We are looking for confident, creative and daring make-up artists who'll bring new ideas and fresh thinking to make-up application."

Elle beauty editor Lynette Botha, adds, "We want make-up artists with creative interpretation of make-up and impeccable application techniques and a passion for the art of make-up and the beauty industry.
