    Has anyone used Kevin Aucoin's makeup line? Is it wonderful or just ok?

    I am in love with his work and would love to upgrade to his makeup but there is no store in my area that carries the brand.

    I might take a leap of faith and order something online but I would love some advice first.

    I've only tried Kevyn Aucoin's foundation so I'm not familiar with his other products but I love his Liquid Airbrush Foundation!  It has a very buildable coverage and great lasting power.  (I am a NC30 for Mac foundations and his LQ07 worked beautifully) I wore it for a Breast Cancer 5 mile walk and it looked fine afterwards.  I didn't care too much for his Sensual Skin Enhancer.  I've heard great things about his brow pencils.  What type of Kevyn Aucoin products are you looking into?

    I want to try his foundation and mascara. I think I may bite the bullet and order the type of foundation you have used. Thanks for the info!

    Have you looked on makeupalley.com for reviews? Herringbone, a little apothecary store in Berkeley, CA carries his line and I've tried some stuff in store. Seems good to me.

    KEVYN AUCOIN's FACE FORWARD inspired me!

    and his line of makeup is awesome! I highly recommend it. It is really pricey and a lot of times way out of my budget but I'd rather skip a starbucks here & there to save up to get his line.

    I splurged on his whole line with my tax refund last year "EEK" i know! but it's so worth it! especially his sensual skin foundations (as a concealer) and liquid airbrush.
