In 1969 [the year I was born] the legendary makeup artist Way Bandy joined Charles of the Ritz as the salon director of makeup. Way Bandy was a legendary make up artist who was the key inspiration for Kevyn Aucoin some years later.Revlon finally shut down Charles of the Ritz in 2002.
Now I'm older than you and I remember Charles of the Ritz... and I remember when Way Bandy was THE name... I was quite young and couldn't have told you why, but his work always stood out. I had no idea that COTR had been "rationalized". Sad.
