5 Beauty Books in 5 Weeks: Dita Von Teese, Kevyn Aucoin, Lisa Eldridge, Scott Barnes

Hello darlings ❤️ A few months ago I’ve received a wonderful gift – Your Beauty Mark book by Dita Von Teese. After reading this amazing book I got into beauty books overall and read 4 more books. In this post I’d like to review all of them:
About Face: Amazing Transformations Using the Secrets of the Top Celebrity Makeup Artist by Scott Barnes
Making Faces by Kevyn Aucoin
Face Forward by Kevyn Aucoin
Face Paint: The Story of Makeup by Lisa Eldridge
Your Beauty Mark: The Ultimate Guide to Eccenstric Glamour by Dita Von Teese

Which was the best one and which – not so impressive?

Icons: Eartha Kitt. Survivor. (UPDATED)

“I am learning all the time. The tombstone will be my diploma”
— Eartha Kitt

Eartha Kitt. I think the words ‘unstoppable force’ and ‘survivor’ are the first thing that comes to mind when I read about her, see her performances, or watch her interviews. For me, she’s the one who leaves all role models behind with her perseverance, grit, energy, honesty, courage, and spirit. Her unique and powerful energy is obvious even from the way she performed in shows and movies same as in her photographs. This post is a tribute to this admirable and fascinating woman.

Icons: Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

“I am a woman above everything else.”
― Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis

This post is a tribute to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who is known not only for being the wife of John F. Kennedy. She’s admired for strong character, hard work, elegance, and bravery. When I’m reading her biography and quotes, the first word that comes to my mind is ‘wise’ and it makes me think that she’d be an excellent role model for any girl or woman.
Special thanks to my lovely subscriber Laura for inspiring this post ❤️

Dita Von Teese: 5 Things That Make Her An Icon

Dita Von Teese is a living piece of art. She is elegant, chic, classy, and sensual. Her sense of style is polished and immediately recognizeable. But it’s not her appearance or outer beauty that make her a true icon of our time – in my opinion, it wouldn’t be even nearly enough. It’s her personality, views, and actions that make me respect and admire her.
