What is an MUA?

Darlings, an MUA is a Make Up Artist! 

MUA is an acronym for Make Up Artist, so when you see accounts on social media that refer to themselves as an MUA, this probably means that they either work as a make up artist or create makeup content online. 

Make up artists have been around for decades working in theatre and entertainment to create every beauty look you could imagine. As makeup artists, we use the power of makeup and our artistic skills to beautify every face that lands in our makeup chair! I believe that it’s our job to help everyone to look and feel like the most beautiful version of themselves.
