What a wonderful, beautiful book! To me, this is the sort of book that you can read and look through again and again. I actually purchased it knowing no more about Kevyn Aucoin than that he was a...

This book didn't shove any makeup rules in your face, unlike other makeup books I've read. He seems to respect the fact that not all women like having the "natural" look (unlike some other makeup...

Maybe it's just me,but I learned nothing from this book.It's mainly a collection of heavily made-up celebrities under nice lighting.

I am by no means a makeup junkie. I am almost to the point where I have given up on beauty products other than basic skin care. This book was no major opus for me, but it did give me fresh ideas....
