Book Reviews of Making Faces

Summary: 4 Stars
Kevyn Aucoin is definitely everything his reputation says he is. This book is excellent, informative, and extremely well put together.
The only down side of it is he does not address Asian beauty. He address caucasian, black, and latin, but not asian... so Asians, this will be good if you want to learn about how to work on all the mentioned faces, but your own...not so much. For those asians whose eyes do not pleat (hooded eyes, or non-creased eyes) this book will not help you dress those and rare style of eyes.
His technique is fantastic and I like his commentaries, very down to earth, though his work is outta-this-world amazing.

Summary: 5 Stars
This book is well written and easy to understand. It offers lots of useful tips. This book is not geared toward the beginner who does not understand what concealer, foundation, and powder are used for or how they are different. Instead the focus of this book is for the person who already knows the everyday use of different products and would like to understand how they can better utilize them.
Individuality is an emphasis that the author gives, which I felt is a good thing. Sometimes you come across a woman who is truly cool toned but looks wonderful with a warm eye shadow. The only way to find these things is to step outside the general "rules" of make up artistry. Kevyn will help guide you there.
For the beginner I would recommend reading BEAUTY: THE NEW BASICS By Rona Berg. Then you can read this book and fully grasp what Kevyn's telling you.
Book Review: Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely LOVED this book. As a cosmetologist Im always looking to see dramatic changes in make up as well as something subtle to be warn everyday or for a wedding. This book has it all (more of the everyday type stuff and not very many dramatic looks though). It gives you a ton of illistrations on how to apply as well as the finished photo and great step by step instructions on achieving the looks shown. Its great even if youre not a professional. I would HIGHLY recommend this book for beginners as well as professionals who've been in the industry for a long time!
