India’s beauty industry is flourishing, yet many skilled professionals struggle to gain the recognition they deserve. The National Beauty Artists Championship i.e, NBAC 2025 is here to change that.
Helmed by renowned industry expert Unnati Singh, who brings 32 years of experience, NBAC offers a credible, well-supported platform for makeup and hair artists to showcase their talent through competitions.
A collaborative effort between Unnati Singh Education and the Bhartiya Women Community, NBAC welcomes hair, beauty, and bridal professionals through wildcard entries. With an entry fee of ₹4,000, participants receive beauty products worth ₹3,000. To ease financial burdens, finalists are also provided with models, jewellery, and additional resources, ensuring accessibility for artists from across the country.
Fashion designer Archana Kochhar, celebrated for dressing Miss World contestants, contributes her bridal collection to the makeup category and her cocktail collection to hairstyling. A digital participation round further expands opportunities, making the competition more inclusive.
The grand finale sees 20 makeup artists and 20 hair artists competing at the highest level, raising industry standards. But NBAC is more than just a competition—it’s a movement dedicated to ensuring that beauty professionals receive the recognition they truly deserve.
With a legacy of leadership, Unnati Singh—Director of IHB Education India and Founder of Mansi Beauty Academy & Salon—has mentored over half a million students, many of whom now run successful salons. As a former jury member for OMC Paris and Bombay Times Fashion Week, her influence in the industry remains unparalleled.
