I worked as a global pro artist for NARS at a time that Kevin Aucoin, Francois Nars and Oribe collabed for this book, runway shows and a few other products at the time. You NAILED the spirit of the techniques that made all these projects a success. Well done to you.

I have been working in bookstores since '95 and remember looking through Making Faces. I'd love to see you recreate Kevyn's Siouxsie Sioux look on Wynona Ryder but anything you do will look amazing! Also, Cindy Crawford's Basic Face was another big make-up book from '96 when she was at the peak of her supermodel powers that you might want to explore as well! Many thanks! 😎

Unrelated, but I came across a lipstick I thought you’d *love*: Lavender Lemonade by Colourpop. A milky, cool lilac/pink of your dreams!

you truly are bringing back the type of up content that made make up a literal hobby for me 🥲

I got married in 1997 and wore a Chanel makeup palette of mocha, creams, and burgundies. I was lucky. Vamp mascara and Metal Garnet lipstick and nail polish was part of the offerings!

I love your approach to recreating these looks, wanting to honour the sacred texts but also using clues from the visual aids and using a little bit of your own technique and approach. Beautiful recreation and the eye is stunning on you!
