日本メイクアップ協会正会員様各位

本協会は、創設者・植村秀が美容文化の発展に情熱を注ぎ、志向やセンス、反社会的なものを除いて、いかなる表現においても自由を尊重し、それらの品評をすることなく、それらの価値を認めあうための交流の場として、彼が米国に渡り多くを学んだハリウッドのプロフェッショナルたちの集まり(1927年にダグラス・フェアバンクスらによって創設された映画芸術科学アカデミーなど)に習って1975年に創設されましたが、植村秀の逝去に伴い休会を致しておりましたが、

この度、植村秀生誕100年を2年後の2028年に控え、その存在意義を見直し、活動を再開すること致しました。

To All Regular Members of the Japan Makeup Society

The Japan Makeup Society(formaly Japan Make-up Association) was originally founded in 1975 by our founder, Shu Uemura, who possessed a deep passion for the development of beauty culture. Inspired by the Hollywood professional organizations he learned from during his time in the United States—such as the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, founded in 1927 by Douglas Fairbanks and others—he established this association as a platform for open exchange. Its core purpose was to respect freedom of expression in all forms (excluding anti-social content) and to appreciate diverse values without passing judgment on personal tastes or artistic directions.

Following the passing of Shu Uemura, the association temporarily suspended its activities. However, with the 100th anniversary of Shu Uemura’s birth approaching in two years (2028), we have reaffirmed our purpose and officially decided to resume our activities.
