In Making Faces, make-up artist Kevyn Aucoin shares his secrets, explaining not only the basics of make-up application and technique but also how to use those fundamentals (sometimes in unconventional ways) to create a wide range of different looks. It features step-by-step directions, instructional full-colour sketches, and a gallery of non-celebrity transformations, as well as fabulous images of stars and supermodels as you have never seen them before. Lush and enticing, Making Faces satisfies on many levels: extraordinary photography, surprising make-up looks on A-list celebrities (Julia Roberts, Demi Moore, Courtney Love), and recipes for doing it yourself.
