Amazon.com Review
The faces that Kevyn Aucoin has made are stellar and luminous: Cher, Tina Turner, Vanessa Williams, and Julia Roberts are but a few of the stars in Aucoin's galaxy of clientele. More than making do, making up is the art of achieving your own special look, and Aucoin insists that there are no hard and fast rules--except for the obvious ones, such as "Don't put lipstick in your eye." The first section offers, in his own words, Aucoin's favorite ideas, tricks, and techniques for enhancing, defining, and altering facial features with makeup. You'll learn how to care for your skin, what foundation to use with your skin type, and transformational magic for that central player in the drama of beauty: eyes. Through his gallery of noncelebrity before-and-afters, Aucoin shows clearly how to use his fundamentals to achieve dozens of different looks. The gorgeous final chapter reads like a list of exotic characters in a play--the Vamp, the Siren, the Diva.... In fact, such celebrities as Isabella Rosselini, Demi Moore, and Nicole Kidman pose as these dramatic, splendidly made-up characters. These sumptuous photographs are accompanied by full-page illustrations listing the "ingredients" required to create these looks as well as simple directions for achieving them. The introduction by the author, at once amusing and endearing ("...trying to conceal the fact that I was a gay, effeminate, hyperactive, adopted child with a serious lisp in southern Louisiana would have been like trying to hide Dolly Parton in a string bikini!"), and Aucoin's commentary throughout, makes Making Faces a unique reference book--beautiful, informative, and personal.

I like that this book focuses on specific looks and that each look has an associated photo. However, the step-by-step instructions are done using drawings, and I think it would be easier to follow the directions if there was a picture with each step (like in Bobbi Brown's book). It would also be nice if there were helpful little tips and bullet points along the way, but i suppose that didn't really become a trend until the 2000's. It a great book, and you'll definitely learn some things, but if it were between this book and Bobbi Brown's book, I'd choose Bobbi Brown's because it gives more specific details and is generally more helpful.
This is a beautiful book. Physically, it is large and is filled with gorgeous photographs of different make up looks, tutorials, models, etc. It's a great coffee table book even if you are not into make up technique. That said, I bought this book for the make up tutorials and was so happy to find that it is so much more - Aucoin gives a great introduction and the beginning of the book focuses on tools, face shapes, what looks best, etc. It's loaded with interesting information. Subsequent chapters break down different looks for different occasions. I am a make up and product junkie but really not the type to buy a book about it - which is so funny bc I have referenced this book a million times over the years for different ideas for fun events - New Year's, a masquerade party or just to switch things up a little. Everytime I open the cover, I find myself lingering over the book, engrossed again in old chapters.....definitely check this out if you are interested in make up application, techniques or seeing how one of the (late) great masters did it.
"Making Faces" is a #CultBook. The legacy of Kevyn Aucoin. Ideal to learn about an iconic person in the industry and its work. I do recommend the book for people with a passion for the industry and/or people with intermediate to advanced makeup skills for the next reasons:- It is more textual than a just beginner book.- The how-to is not with pictures but with sketches drawn by the author, so could not be ideal for someone who wants to apply eyeshadow for the first time in life.- As the how-tos are sketches, are great for intermediate to advanced skilled people who want to work on their sketch drawing techniques.I personally love this book also because I am starting to draw my own facecharts and this help me to see how an expert like Kevin represent a makeup look with the pencil.
Great book, definitely a book a beginner can learn from and keep as a coffee table book. The transformation pictures were beautiful, I wish the diagrams had images of real eyes and lips instead of cartoonish like images but the time this book came out it is understandable why they had those type of images. This book shouldn't be your sole source as a beginner in make-up or you can get confused but it should be in your top 5 make-up books you should have. Overall though it is a good book and testament to Kevyn Aucoins work. Worth the money.
My gently used copy was scribbled on by a child using crayon on the first few pages. How do I be mad at a little artist using Kevyn as inspiration. Weeeerk.
Making Faces is a starting point for many that are curious about makeup, myself included. Kevyn's advise and guidance is used by many of today's MUAs and Internet makeup gurus. Some probably don't even know their source.With that said, people with a grasp of how to do makeup can take a pass. This book covers basics very well. However, if you need inspiration for say, your 1990s costume or a tutorial done by picture you should grab this book. I'm still blown away by his Marilyn Monroe look for Priscilla Presley. He had a guide on how to contour your face a whole generation before it was appreciated.Making Faces is one of those makeup tomes you need to pass on to the next budding makeup enthusiast. I gave my copy to my niece once Kevyn taught me the ways of contouring and perfect smoky eye shadow. Now that the 90s are back, Kevyn's photos for his makeup looks are suddenly trendy again.
The late Kevyn Aucoin is a pioneer in the makeup industry and still has an immense impact on the world of makeup to this day. He is an Icon of his field. Today his work is still just as relevant as it was since the year 2001. He has worked with a plethora of supermodels and celebrities of all ethnicities and he brings his tips and tricks alive in this book. There are many different makeup looks to choose from to create a flawless look. There are some pretty iconic photos in this book along with his instructions on how to recreate the look. I found the instructions for the different looks easy to follow although I have yet to really try out some of the intense looks. The pages in this book are beautiful and if you love makeup as much as I do this is definitely the book for you. I do not regret buying this book one bit. I honestly wish that I had a big table or shelf to display it on. If you are a beginner to novice and on the fence about this book I would suggest you buy it, if you are a pro I would suggest you buy it as well there are so many glamorous images it has something for everyone.
This book has information and pictures on how to do basic make up, as well as more elaborate looks. what I like most about it is that the author doesn't claim to have a specific technique or that his method is better than others, but encourages the reader to play with color. It covers the basic of skincare and make up and provides photos so that you can see how to apply the make up and recreate the looks. This book will not give you a lot of advanced techniques into make up artistry (such as special effects) but is a must have in your beauty library.
