lostintranslation is refocusing.
Buy Kevyn Aucoin’s book, Making Faces – I also own Face Forward and I highly recommend that one also, but most everything I learned about applying makeup AND false eyelashes properly (something I thought I’d NEVER be able to do), I learned from Making Faces. For those of you who don’t know, Kevyn Aucoin was an AMAZING makeup artist (to the stars) until he died of a brain aneurysm in 2002. His instructions are simple and the photos in his books are BEAUTIFUL. In these books, he does makeup on celebrities and everyday folk. He makes celebrities look like dead ringers for other celebrities. It seems that there was really nothing that this man could not do with makeup and he continues to be an inspiration to me.
