Everyone is beautiful to someone.

It is the free spirited men and women that we most admire and often envy - those individuals who dare to be themselves.

Today I choose life. Every morning when I wake up I can choose joy, happiness, negativity, pain... To feel the freedom that comes from being able to continue to make mistakes and choices - today I choose to feel life, not to deny my humanity but embrace it.

Audrey had an angelic quality about her. She didn't act like she was better than everyone, she just had a presence, an energy, a sort of light coming from within her that was overwhelming.

I'm very passionate about what I do.

I also have this incredible love for women.

Soon I realized that if beauty equalled forgiveness, I was never going to be forgiven.

No amount of makeup can mask an ugly heart.

I made a crash landing here on Earth on February 14, 1962, in the Shreveport Catholic Charities Home for un-wed mothers. The infamous Bonnie and Clyde lost their lives just miles from where I was born. Like outlaws ourselves, my birth mother and I were on the run from the day she found out I was part of her.

I'm going to insult a whole industry here, but it seems like TV is for people who can't do film. I'm not talking about actresses I'm talking about lighting people. Lighting on TV is just so... it's sinful, it really is.
Kevyn Aucoin
Life is too short to spend hoping that the perfectly arched eyebrow or hottest new lip shade will mask an ugly heart.
Kevyn Aucoin
