The world's first makeup museum is in New York.

Have you ever wondered how the art of makeup originated 10,000 years ago? The Makeup Museum, opening in Manhattan, New York this May, will have the answer! Showcasing the entire history of makeup and its social impact, the museum promises to provide a truly comprehensive look at this unique art form.

The Makeup Museum's inaugural exhibition, "Pink Jungle: 1950s Makeup in America," will begin with the decade that marked the birth of the modern cosmetics industry and familiar names like Elizabeth Arden, Max Factor, and Sally Hansen. It was also a period when the art of makeup and beauty influenced pop culture and the burgeoning media industry, from Marilyn Monroe's red lipstick to Brigitte Bardot's cat-eye makeup.

With amazing experiences and classic cosmetics, the exhibition will open a journey of discovery into beauty, including skincare products used by two iconic actresses, Monroe and Greta Garbo. The inaugural exhibition will last approximately six months, with tickets ranging from $25 to $45, and opportunities to experience beauty classes or services.

"The Makeup Museum is a significant cultural landmark in New York. The 1950s were the perfect time for the Makeup Museum to begin with its inaugural exhibition, as the 1950s marked the birth of the modern cosmetics industry!" - said CEO and co-founder Doreen Bloch.

Rachel Goodwin, makeup artist for Emma Stone, Michelle Dockery, and January Jones, is also one of the co-founders of the Makeup Museum. The museum's goal is to hold multiple exhibitions at different times and provide people with a truly in-depth understanding of each era.

Visitors can expect a fantastic experience at the exhibition with classic artifacts, fascinating new information, an aesthetically pleasing space, and unique events. Brand sponsors will play a special role by bringing collections of facial skincare products once used by Marilyn Monroe or Greta Garbo.
