According to Makeup Gourmet, Chris Scott, the interactive event will place attendees in the middle of outrageous photo shoots that will take place throughout the evening. International models will rub shoulders and vie for attention with guests as part of this unique visual spectacle.


“It is so much easier to show than tell when it comes to this visual medium of makeup," Mr Scott, said. "By placing guests into the set piece, they will experience firsthand the glamour of this dynamic and fun loving industry.


"We will pamper attendees to a level they haven't experienced before. Professional hair and makeup stylists will be on hand to elevate guest's appearance to photo shoot quality elegance," Mr Scott, added.


Another yummy feature will be full body art makeup demonstration on deliciously under-dressed models of both genders.


The ‘open house’ format is designed to accommodate the many RSVP guests as they pass through to experience MUG Shot studio’s offerings, as well as to enjoy deliciously provided food and drink. Attendees can gulp down a potent ‘MUG Shot’ single shot beverage, apply named after the new production studio’s core business.  Fuze is also kindly sponsoring this special event by offering every attendee a bottle of their fusion lifestyle health drink.


As the event turns late, the studio will transform into a dance floor with DJ’s spinning the latest hits to the delight of the crowd.  


Mr Scott, said, "Music is so essential to the energy of any studio, so it feels right to get the place rocking and close out the evening with a dance party."
