About this deal

It is an ambiguous blend of different facial features from different races: the uptilted eyes of East Asians, the full lips of black women, golden tan skin of Latinx people, sharp cheekbones of Native Americans, long dark lashes of Middle Eastern women etc.

This was the first book on beauty I encountered that suggested to me that makeup can be used to express a feeling, a facet of yourself, an aspiration of who you wish to be in the moment. I'm not saying he had to go nuts with special effects makeup, but a bit more diversity in coloring would have been nice. The typical bombshell looks would have been more memorable and groundbreaking if Kevin used untypical and diverse models instead of simply sticking a blonde wig on a white model and recreating the spitting image of Marilyn Monroe. When Rita liked Ambrose, Fern was the one writing back and forth with Ambrose and signing rita's name. I have yet to see a makeup book that truly incorporates diversity in beauty or showcases ordinary women with skin problems.e. some of the models are clearly wearing white eyeliner, blusher and mascara on their lower eyelashes yet this is omitted from the makeup instructions. I in fact, went to a company halloween party as a very convincing Betty Boop using techniques I garnered from this tome.

It's a far cry from anything he could do before he passed away, but I felt like sharing for the sake of the review.the photos and actual makeup looks in this book are stunning, and as i said i really enjoyed hearing kevyns thoughts, which are mostly the books saving graces for me and keep its rating two stars, but with all its deficits in mind, i wouldnt recommend this book to as many people as i thought i might. Having created beautiful looks for Janet Jackson, Cher and Gwyneth Paltrow, Kevyn Aucoin is perfectly positioned to offer tips and let you in on some of his makeup artistry secrets.
