AKT: How do you feel about that? You are also a makeup artist. Do you have moments where it feels that way? He could sense any fear. I know Linda Evangelista, he made her feel like "You got this!" You know, "I got you, you got this." Because it's scary to be that vulnerable. You're in someone else's clothes and people expect so much. He didn't expect anything of anyone. He just let them be. Neugierige und Experimentierfreudige, die auch ausgefalleneren Looks gegenüber aufgeschlossen eingestellt sind

And I always just want to take care of them. Make them feel like - "You don't have to worry about anything right now. We're going to make you look amazing and get your confidence going so that you can go out there." He [Kevyn Aucoin] was very much that. Later, Aucoin would work with Japanese cosmetics giant Shiseido on their Inoui line. [12] He would later be approached by both Vincent Longo and Laura Mercier to endorse their eponymous lines, [ citation needed] but decided to launch his own brand, Kevyn Aucoin Beauty, in 2001 instead. Isabella Rossellini in ‪Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story‬: "What is it in the essence of Maria Callas that we liked, or Barbra Streisand?" Kevyn does a really great job of encouraging the reader to experiment with makeup, and not just with colors, but also with the way you apply it, location, tools, and more. He does a GREAT job of summarizing styles throughout the decades and gives you step-by-step instructions with color and makeup suggestions for you to replicate the looks. I especially loved the history of the "Eyebrow" (30s thin brows)and "lip" (50s full lip). I really loved the "film noir" and "hollywood bombshell" looks.

Larger Than Life: The Kevyn Aucoin Story International Premiere during the Edinburgh International Film Festival will take place on June 29 at 8:45pm with a second screening on June 30 at 6:00pm - Cineworld This was the first book on beauty I encountered that suggested to me that makeup can be used to express a feeling, a facet of yourself, an aspiration of who you wish to be in the moment. What was REALLY great about this book is the expansive amount of celebrity photos that Kevyn used, everyone from Vanessa Williams, to Drew Barrymore, to Demi Moore. If I had not seen the step by step directions for some of the looks, I would have NEVER guessed who it was! He REALLY surprised the reader about what can be accomplished with the correct and playful application of makeup. An Zeichnungen erläuterte Schritt-für-Schritt-Schminkanleitungen mit Produkt- und Utensilienauflistung in Anlehnung an ein Starfoto. After the section on basics, there's a section of "looks" developed for ordinary people (male and female) alongside their own stories, which makes the book very accessible for those who might feel distant from the subject. The next section, which is entirely celebrities, is more "glamorous" but gives you the details of how to acheive those looks as well.

Frauen mit Grundkenntnissen (eigene Hautbeschaffenheit, Farbenlehre, sofern man sich an solchen Farben orientieren möchte, die von der Masse als schmeichelhaft empfunden werden (entgegen Aucoin: Jeder soll tragen, worauf er Lust hat), Hautpflege, Erfahrung, wo die Produkte individuell genau aufgetragen werden sollten)Aucoin was an interview subject (along with dancer Bill T. Jones and explorer Ann Bancroft) in Oliver Button is a Star!, a video reinterpretation of Tomie dePaola's children's book "Oliver Button Is a Sissy." In the makeup world, Kevyn Aucoin’s iconic 1997 book Making Faces is largely considered the bible of its field—and not without reason. Many pros remember the first time they pored through the late visionary's how-to tome, and the subsequent visceral reaction they had to it. "When I was 17 or 18, I got it as a gift from a friend of mine who knew it was my dream to be a makeup artist," explains makeup artist Sandy Ganzer. "This is not hyperbole...it changed my life." Beauty has become more international and ironically more homogenous because more and more people are trying to look like a Snapchat filter. Plastic surgery is more accessible than ever too. Seeing a book by Kevin Aucoin written in the early 2000s reinforces the fact more than ever: lines are blurring and boundaries in beauty are disappearing. We have always been chasing perfect, beautiful faces since the dawn of time.
