WAY BANDY BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE

Model Gia made up by Way Bandy for Cosmopolitan Magazine cover.

Handsome Way Bandy at work.
THE must have book on makeup application.

Way Bandy was the first makeup artist to receive name credit for his work on the pages of Vogue magazine. This helped him become the most famous makeup artist in the world. But it was his charm and his dedication to his craft that made him the favorite artist of supermodels, movie stars, and rock stars. Even top stars that were known for only doing their own makeup, ie: Elizabeth Taylor, Barbra Streisand and Cher, were soon captivated by the artistry of Way Bandy.

His work appeared monthly on the covers of Cosmopolitan magazine and almost as often on the covers of Vogue and Bazaar. He worked with every top photographer of the time. But it was his makeover on the cover of New York magazine of Martha Mitchell. She was the wife of politician John Mitchell, that had been in the press a lot for talking too much and getting her husband in trouble, that really brought the name Way Bandy to the attention of the public at large.

Way's genius inspired the careers of many makeup artists after him and continues to this very day. And so I say thank you and happy birthday Way Bandy. (born 1941 - died 1986)
