Reviews"I could pontificate for hours on the vast talent, versatility, and genius of Kevyn, but instead I shall simply say that the best thing about having him do your makeup is that it allows you to spend time with him."-- Gwyneth Paltrow, "Kevyn's the first person I've worked with who made me see makeup as an art form, like painting. At the same time he is fun, light, and hysterically funny. He's very collaborative and inspiring."-- Winona Ryder, There is an engaging familiarity about Aucoin's anecdotal introduction to each of his subjects... And Aucoin offers a similarly personal and captivating note about each icon whose look he has chose to mirror in this re-invention process... Amazing, really, what can be achieved with some carefully applied powder. When, that is, you have the Aucoin know-how., "Kevyn enables each and every one of us to play the character we want to play, be the person we want to be, and, most important, feel the best that we can about ourselves. Thank you, Kevyn, for making my dreams come true!" -- Drew Barrymore

  • Good overall MUA book

    I like the book but wasn't super impressed. It's just missing something. I feel like in the makeup looks created steps are left out. Still some good tips and tricks.
