Celebrity Makeup Artist Scott Barnes Releases His Tell-All Book “About Face”

By: Vale­rie Lora

Jen­ni­fer Lopez is loo­king abso­lu­tely gor­geous on the cover of “About Face,” a book by friend and makeup artist Scott Bar­nes. Now, we all can see into the artistry Mr. Bar­nes dis­plays through his work. : ) You can now pre-order the book on Ama­zon!

About Face is a com­pen­dium of everything make-up artist Scott Bar­nes has lear­ned during his career wor­king with A-list cele­bri­ties inc­lu­ding Jen­ni­fer Lopez, Gwy­neth Pal­trow, and Jen­ni­fer Anis­ton. About Face is pac­ked with tech­ni­ques for every area of makeup application.

Part One focu­ses on dra­ma­tic makeo­vers of real women with a twist: each woman comes in loo­king the best she thinks she can look. The author then decons­tructs and debunks their look taking them from attrac­tive to ama­zing. Step-by-step pho­tos out­line makeup tech­ni­ques and pro­ducts while Scott pro­vi­des com­men­tary on how he pin­poin­ted the woman’s stron­gest asset and built a look around it.

Part two high­lights beauty rituals, must-have makeup items, and inner and outer pre­pa­ra­tions that a woman must embrace in order to look beau­ti­ful and radiate charisma.

Part three focu­ses on the cele­bri­ties Scott Bar­nes has wor­ked with through out his career…

Book Inspiration: Shoot — Photography of the Moment

By: Pianca Pink.

Title: Shoot — Pho­to­graphy of the Moment

Author: Miller, Ken

Price: $45.00

Avai­la­ble Sep­tem­ber 2009
The Shoot gathers over 20 pho­to­graphers whose work focu­ses on cap­tu­ring a moment rather than ela­bo­rate ligh­ting setups or con­tro­lled, manu­fac­tu­red sce­na­rios. Emplo­ying the most basic pho­to­graphic tools — a single-lens reflex camera and natu­ral light — they must rely on their ins­tincts and their abi­lity to inte­ract with a situa­tion to create a dyna­mic image. This freewhee­ling approach reflects an era in which we are inc­rea­singly bom­bar­ded by ima­ges, and the emo­tio­nal reso­nance of ima­ges has become an impor­tant part of our visual voca­bu­lary. The book docu­ments the influence of an older gene­ra­tion of art pho­to­graphers, such as the legen­dary Nan Gol­din and Wolf­gang Till­mans, and expands on a youn­ger gene­ra­tion of pho­to­graphers, inc­lu­ding Tim Bar­ber and J. H. Engström, to show how this style has gai­ned trac­tion and influence.
