The Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual by Bobbi Brown pdf Another great book, this one much more of a step-by-step tutorial for someone who wants to see the craft of makeup application broken down into bite-sized steps. Bobbi Brown has decades of experience as a makeup artist/stylist and, of course, the creator of her own makeup and skin care line (which is fab). In addition to tutorials, the  Makeup Manual  also has the “top beauty secrets only artists know, essential equipment to keep on hand, how to break into the business, and how to work with photographers and celebrities.” (source) This is a highly rated, informative, must-have makeup book for your collection. download free   you will need human verification  buy it from amazon 

Making Faces by Kevyn Aucoin ebook pdf

Making Faces  by Kevyn Aucoin The book that started it all for me. I was already dabbling with makeup, but I really went down the rabbithole when I received this book as a gift. I’ve now kept my copy of  Making Faces  with me for over a decade and multiple moves. It’s dog-eared and loved and I’ll keep it forever. This is, in my opinion,  the most inspiring makeup book  I’ve ever read and I highly recommend it. His makeup line – released posthumously – is also incredible. A piece of  the makeup collection  paired with the book would make an unforgettable gift for any true beauty addict. download free   you will need human verification  buy it from amazon
