Kevyn Aucoin Cosmetics

Kevyn Aucoin Beauty was founded in 2001 by the legendary professional makeup artist of the same name. Aucoin, who was one of the most influential figures in the 1990s beauty industry, launched the brand to distill his professional techniques into accessible products for the general public.

The brand has undergone several ownership changes since its founder's passing. After being owned by Creal Beauty and later Manzanita Capital, it was eventually acquired by the Chinese brand management group Eternal Group. This transition marked a shift in global distribution focus, though the brand maintains its high-end professional reputation.

Manufacturing takes place across several global regions known for high-quality cosmetic formulations, including Italy, the United States, and Japan, depending on the specific product line (such as the cult-favorite Etherealist foundation or the Sculpting Powder).
