Based on Aucoin's best-selling books, Making Faces and The Art of Makeup, this calendar bursts with the lusciously made-up faces of Lisa Marie Presley, Andie McDowell, Cher, Isabella Rosellini, and Courtney Love like you've never seen them before. Rosellini, for example, looks just like Barbra Streisand, circa Hello, Dolly; and Presley makes a dead-ringer for Marilyn Monroe. Full-color sketches scattered throughout the days of the month give step-by-step illustrations for re-creating each look, and other beauty tips are scattered throughout.
