While MUD’s education began with schools in Los Angeles and New York, it didn’t stop there. Make-up Designory recognized that to meet the growing demand for makeup education, expansion beyond these two locations was necessary. Through MUD’s Partner Schools and Studios, the education is now offered globally.

 

Today, more than 100 locations provide MUD training — and this number continues to grow.

 

Our European headquarters in Berlin has been operating successfully for over 12 years, serving as a vibrant hub for aspiring makeup artists across Europe.
