Reviews


Very useful.
I bought this book because it was required in my theatrical makeup class. Turns out I diodn't really need the class. All I had to do was buy this book. This book was very helpful. It shows you how to make certain parts of your gace appear thinner or larger. Definitely recommend it.

Good Starter for Makeup Newbies
This was the first makeup book I ever bought. I think it was great and I've read and reread it many times. This is the perfect book if you don't know anything about makeup and would like to learn. They break stuff down really simply into lots of step by step projects. It touches on many areas of makeup and has some great profiles of professional makeup artists. I do wish there was more info about the business and work part of being a pro, but the makeup is covered and explained nicely.

When you're done, you'll have everything you need to begin step one in your makeup artist career. Honestly, I just finished a great book that is the one you want if you are ready to begin or add to a professional career in makeup. It's The Makeup Artist Handbook: Techniques for Film, Television, Photography, and Theatre. This is the book you want when you're ready to get serious!

A good beginners book
I would recommend this book for someone that is just starting out in their career to keep as a refresher (i.e. moulding and wigmaking sections were great)or for a person who has not studied at all. The book is VERY basic on most other levels however does give a good insight into the who's who on set which most other books lack.... 3/5 for me.

Good for learning the basics
The book covers the basic principals of makeup, both staight and character makeup. I especially liked the activities (hands-on practice) that accompanied the chapters. These were things that were not touched on in cosmetology school. The book also contains student profiles, examples of their work and how they got started. The book is a good reference for anyone beginning a career, but would probably be to general for an accomplished, working artist.

The Complete Make-Up Artist
The service from Amazon was great! It came earlier then expected w/free shipping. Now I know why Amazon is the only way to buy!
