Kevin-James Bennett to teach at ACMUSE

Multiple Emmy Award winner Kevin James Bennett has spent over 20 years exploring and mastering the many faces of the world of makeup. From backstage to boardroom, his carefully honed skills have secured his place as an elite industry expert and has garnered accolades from corporate peers and viewers of his work in television, film and print.
In 1994 he landed in Daytime Drama (better known as “soaps”). He became Key Makeup Artist for two network programs ("Another World" and "As The World Turns") and over the next 9 years received Five Nominations and Two Emmy Awards for his creative vision. He is also recognized as the artist who introduced "airbrush makeup" to daytime drama in 1999.
n late 2003 KJ left daytime to diversify his makeup experience. He worked on primetime shows like "Law & Order", lifestyle-reality shows for Discovery, "E", Style and Scripps networks, national commercials, independent and feature films. He also began consulting on product development and promotional marketing for a few high profile cosmetic companies.

In 2004 he consolidated his cosmetic experience and began developing his consulting company, MADE NYC. In 2005 he furthered his immersion into cosmetic culture by launching IN MY KIT, a professional makeup review and reference website. It developed a cult following and has become a pro makeup artist "bible". Today it is referenced and linked to internationally and is quickly approaching 1 million unique visitors.

In 2007 KJ became Director of Artistry & Development for MAKE UP FOR EVER. In December of the same year he appeared for the first time on HSN (Home Shopping Network). These appearances sparked a "following" and he began appearing regularly as an On-Air Makeup Expert.

Today, KJ devotes his full energy and focus to MADE NYC
