  • Fun ideas, a bit impractical.

    While Aucoin does try to cover makeup in a broad sense, much of this book is made up of photos of movie stars that he has transformed into classic movie stars. Gwyneth Paltrow as James Dean, comes to mind, as does Julia Roberts as Julie Christie, and Christy Turlington as Twiggy. He does an amazing job (Paltrow is practically unidentifiable as Dean), and it shows to what lengths makeup can improve, alter, and enhance the face. Where Aucoin falls short is on practicality. Sure, I'd love to paint myself up to look like Elizabeth Taylor (1960, not 2006), but where would I go? I do think Aucoin is a true artist and master who had so much to teach. I would have liked to have seen more technique in this one, though. Buy it because it's Aucoin and a pretty cool coffee ...

  • Your Face Will Thank You!

    Kevyn Aucoin was THE premier makeup artist to the stars. He had talent unlike anything anyone had ever seen. "Face Forward" is one of three books by or about Kevyn. It showcases and teaches you how to do a variety of looks. I'm a makeup artist, and love perusing this book! His instructions are so easy, you don't even have to be a pro artist to accomplish these looks! It's almost a paint-by-numbers approach, complete with a variety of ideas on which products or textures should be used. There is NOTHING to dislike! The artistry is fabulous, the photography is stunning. Just wait till you see what he did to some of your favorite stars!

  • clever.

    FaceForward is a very good introduction into "make-uping". It has very good diversity in the subjects- even making a man into a woman because of the bone structure he resembled model icon Linda Evangelista. Aucoin obviously has a passion for his art and makes the book an easy and interesting read as well as an instruction manual. Two cons: some pictures are not great on resolution and some pictures look suspect to being altered to better the more famous subjects.

  • Practical and fanciful makeup all in one book

    Kevyn Aucoin does a good job of showing women how to do everyday makeup, including highlighting and lowlighting areas to emphasize the positive and unique features of each person. The beauty of this book though is in illustrating how makeup can be used to transform one's face for stunning and whimsical looks. I would recommend this to someone who is familiar with makeup but would like to learn how powerful a tool it can be.

  • This book is essential

    I had bought the book Making Faces by Kevyn Aucoin a few years ago and I knew this one would be even better. First off, if his books were just pictures of before and after photos it would be worth it.He is that talented.But add the great tips, visual guides and wonderful stories and it equals hours of reading. I am hoping to start a career in make-up artistry and this book along with his other titles is a great start.Kevyn's philosophy towards beauty and personal creativity is inspiring.Plus, where else can you see Martha Stuart as a drop dead ringer for Veronica Lake.
