MISS UNIVERSE MASTERCLASS: THE CASTING
Welcome to Miss Universe Masterclass: The Casting, the gateway to becoming part of the Glam Team on the road to Puerto Rico 2026, in the historic 75th edition of Miss Universe. This is not just a beauty pageant. It is a global platform that celebrates international projection, artistic discipline, and excellence in every detail.
This Masterclass has been designed as a visual and sensory experience where you will gain a deep understanding of what Miss Universe represents today in makeup and hairstyling. Here, you will not only observe techniques. You will understand the visual language that defines a candidate on the most important stage in the world.
Art within Miss Universe goes beyond emotion. Candidates require versatility, precision, and technical mastery to project beauty in any context, under any light, and at all times. For this reason, the Glam Team plays one of the most important roles within the organization.
We are looking for professionals who can both do makeup and hairstyling. We are looking for complete artists. Individuals who understand the balance between technical skill and visual sensitivity, and who see their talent as a tool for global projection.
During the Masterclass, you will gain firsthand insight into what Miss Universe is looking for this year. This experience gives you access to the international casting process through both Onsite and Online formats. At the end, you will understand the next steps to be considered as part of the official team.
Miss Universe is more than a pageant. It is a global showcase.
See you in Puerto Rico.
