This is a wonderful book! Amazing! It has great pictures, tells the techniques, and is just great all around. Of course, Kevyn Aucoin is one of my heroes, so that may prejudice me in a way, but the quality and how it is put together is totally beyond belief! I have bought all but one of his books, and am chomping at the bit for it. This book has total detail of how to do the makeup, and shows you exactly what we are capable of doing with using makeup as an art form. It inspires creativity, and is again, filled with wonderful, beautiful pictures. Easily one of the most beautiful books I have ever seen. I would recommend it to anyone. As a matter of fact, everyone reads it when they come over to the house, and one of my friends has borrowed it, is researching how she wants me to do her makeup for her wedding. Even men pick it up and check it out! It is a wonderful book!!!!!!!!Read full review

I am a beginner in the makeup world. But my dream is to become a professional applying makeup. Before I bought this book, I wasn't sure about how good could it be, because I thought that for teaching makeup techniques maybe a DVD disc could be better. My opinion totally changed after I read it. This book is amazing and pretty didactic. Kevyn is a master who gives lots of tricks. It is fantastic the way the author can describe easy steps to achieve any gorgeous look shown in his book. Absolutely easy "recipes" as you can read in the first page of the book.
This is a great book. Kevyn Aucoin is a legend. He has made up the most famous faces in the world. This book takes you step by step thru his technique. He shows you how to play up your features in ways no one else could. He explains the use of highlighting and shading to transform your look. This book is for everyone, whether you need a refresher course in makeup or you just started to wear it. I highly recommend this book.
I ended up losing a lot of things in my divorce a few years ago and in that a lot of books, this one being one of them. This is my second time purchasing it and its deffinetly worth it. I reference this book often as well as Face Forward. Great for anyone wanting to get into makeup art as a profession or just a simple reference tool, great discriptions easy to follow instructions and phemoninal photos. You wont regreat getting this book... you will regreat not!
I'm so in love with my book!!! Wish I had gotten it YEARS AGO!! I always wanted one!!!

Amazing book! Kevyn Aucoin was nad will always been one of the best to have ever done it when it comes to make up. He doesn't just apply product, he truly brings out the best in the women and men he has made up over the years. This book is great for any level of expertise, but I find the true value will go to those who have somewhat a clue to make up application.
Awesome sauce, indeed!
