DESCRIPTION:
For Kevyn, leading A BEAUTIFUL LIFE was first and foremost about inner beauty and this book builds on that legacy.. However, few would have predicted his incredible rise given the heartwrenching difficulties of his childhood. Kevyn Aucoin led the kind of glamorous life that can only be imagined. Kevyn was so beloved by his fans and his famous friends because of the message behind his makeup: self-respect and tolerance. But at a young age, he discovered his talent for applying makeup and dreamed of leaving his small Southern town to make it in the fashion world of New York. He tended to the faces of every A-list star and did the makeup for countless music videos, magazine shoots and fashion shows. And of course it contains a 'greatest hits' of Kevyn's favourite celebrity makeup tips, some revealed for the first time ever. A BEAUTIFUL LIFE showcases the most exciting of these pages and brings the behind-the-scenes world of fashion, celebrity and music to life for the reader. During his amazing career, Kevyn kept detailed diaries of every assignment he received and filled each entry with polaroids, names and places. He did just that and within eight months he was working for Vogue magazine
"Kevyn helped me to see that it's okay to open up and express yourself and that doing so will take you to new places."
