A Tribute to Kevyn Aucoin
Quotes
Kevyn Aucoin in his own words......
'Beauty has a lot to do with character.''Beauty is about perception, not about make-up. I think the beginning of all beauty is knowing and liking oneself. You can't put on make-up, or dress yourself, or do you hair with any sort of fun or joy if you're doing it from a position of correction.'
'Growing up, I was shy and effeminate and was therefore considered ugly. Other kids threw that word at me a lot.'
'Perfection is boring. If a face doesn't have mistakes, it's nothing.'
'There are two types of people in the world: people who are passionate about things, and people who've had their passion punched, beaten, or whatever out of them.'
'I'd rather have huge success and huge failures than travel in the middle of the road.'
