Feature Fridays: Kevyn Aucoin
It has been sometime since I have posted on my blog, sorry for those who have been checking and have not seen any updates! Anyway, I want to introduce a new series that I will be featuring on my blog called Feature Fridays. These posts will be about people who inspire me and those who I am just interested in. I decided to open up Feature Fridays with a post about a make-up artist that has inspired me and that has taught me a lot about make-up, even after his death.
Kevyn Aucoin, during his time, was one of the most sought after make-up artist in the field. He did the make-up of many celebrities, in such ways that enhanced their natural beauty. His goal was to make people feel beautiful and this can be seen in his book, Face Forward that was published in 2000. Even though this book is 10 years old, it is amazing the way his techniques are still so relevant and timeless...this is what made Kevyn Aucoin distinguished. His timeless techniques and tips in make-up tips are to envy as he makes it look so easy, but it is respected because of his talent and wonderful eye for looking at each of his clients individually and doing their make-up accordingly. We will always remember Kevyn Aucoin and he will always be the best and most respected in my eyes.
In a tribute to him, I will re-create one of his make-up looks for a halloween inspired look...stay tuned to my youtube channel (www.youtube.com/vdmilz123) and of course here for that video.
