Book Reviews of Makeup: The Art of Beauty
Book Review: A bit of the strange and unusual
Summary: 3 Stars
I love makeup, Allure magazine (and others) and makeup books, so I decided to get this. I don't think this is in the same league as Kevyn Aucoin, but there is some interesting stuff in here. Some of the looks do seem a bit dated, and there seem to be more photos from the late 1970s and through the 1980s, so you have the colors and intense diagonal blush, etc. There are some interesting tips, such as applying blush in a vertical smudge to create length, etc., and while I'm not going to be applying fake gems to my eyebrows or painting a stripe of bronze down the side of my face any time soon, it's interesting to look into and read the book and see someone painting outside conventional lines. It's fun and worthwhile for that alone. A little bit of the avante garde never hurts.
