It's finally here! The anticipation of waiting for Kevyn Aucoin's The Art of Makeup to arrive in the mail almost unbearable. This 14x11" over-sized beauty of a book is filled with 227 full color photographs. In a previous life, I was a makeup artist for several years and Kevyn Aucoin is my hero when it comes to artistic makeup. Brilliant. Beautiful. Knowledgeable. His books have it all. He shares all his "secrets" to the art and includes wonderful journaling about the person behind the makeup. I could read his books for hours. Sadly, I have never owned one until now. This book was published in 1994 and is inspiring. I have yet to find a book on makeup that I would recommend more. Enjoy the photos of his artwork!
