Wow, it is already an Amazon #1 Best Seller and it hasn't even been released yet! Lisa deserves it--she is the epitome of grace and genuineness--a true artist. It is amazing the difference in the quality of work that Lisa contributes to Lancome compared to the cheesy, UNprofessional, amateurish crap that Michelle puts out. It's almost embarrassing. I didn't even know that Michelle was still working with Lancome..?? People in the comments don't seem to be too enthused about it..

Makeup, as we know it, has only been commercially available in the last 100 years, but applying decoration to the face and body may be one of the oldest global social practices. In Face Paint, Lisa Eldridge reveals the entire history of the art form, from Egyptian and Classical times up through the Victorian age and golden era of Hollywood, and also surveys the cutting-edge makeup science of today and tomorrow. Face Paint explores the practical and idiosyncratic reasons behind makeup’s use, the actual materials employed over generations, and the glamorous icons that people emulate and how they achieved their effects. An engaging history of style, it is also a social history of women and the ways in which we can understand their lives through the prism and impact of makeup.
I wanna buy it. It sounds well thought out, and it's an appreciation toward the many different makeup styles from many different culture. EGYPTIAN MAKEUP. Way better than the random YAKINI YAKINI Michelle was trying so hard to push when she did her Egyptian Queen makeup.
This is a makeup book that I am actually jumping up and down wanting to get my hands on.
"I used to watch Michelle's videos and I thought she was THE beauty guru. Then I discovered Lisa Eldridge and wow. Now I realized that Michelle actually knows NOTHING about make up. Lisa is a true professional and artist, Michelle is just some girl on Youtube."
"Go away Michelle! Lisa runs this show now!"
"How about making a mascara tutorial video that actually shows how the lashes looked before and after and gives tips on how to apply it. In other words, a video that tries to be a bit more than a primitive ad. You have Lisa Eldridge to show you how..."
OT: Sorry if this has already been mentioned before.. but Michelle is making a documentary of her life? WHAT.
This interview was from October 2013. She said the director had been filming her journey for the past 2 years and the movie was expected to come out the next year, which would've been sometime in 2014. Has anyone heard anything about it?
OMG.. she invested her OWN money and provided camera equipment to make a documentary film about herself? Yeah, 'cause that's not narcissistic at all!
