A book from one of the most famous makeup artists of our time should definitely be on the shelf of every makeup artist.

Books about makeup can instantly transport us to the world of beauty, perfection, art and fantasy. It is especially interesting to learn something new from the history of makeup - how did the first cosmetics appear, who first launched lipsticks and foundations on sale, how did the world of makeup develop in different eras? You will find answers to all these questions in the book “Paints. History of Makeup.

We are sure that every self-respecting makeup artist knows Lisa Eldridge. The global creative director of the Lancome brand, a legendary makeup artist, a celebrity makeup artist and a master with extensive experience, has written a book that is difficult to tear yourself away from.

In it you will find stories about the creation of the world's first cosmetics, information about the founding of such iconic brands as Bourjois, Chanel and Dior, and Lisa also tells how cosmetics and the three main colors in makeup - white, black and red - can transform the appearance of women: change the shape of the eyes, make the skin more fresh and rested, and the lips – sensual and expressive.

In the publication you will also find stories about Lisa Eldridge’s own idols in the world of makeup. These muses, trendsetters and experimenters did a great job - they changed society's view of what a woman should be and how she could look, and also encouraged girls to introduce makeup into their daily routine.

An incredibly interesting and at the same time incredibly beautiful book will be a great gift for anyone interested in the art of makeup and the history of fashion.
