The Beauty Investigator
Jérôme Touron is a blogger and self-proclaimed ‘investigator.’ Touron describes his blog as such:
This blog is not about beauty tips, must-have products or it-girls. This is not a “beauty blog”. This blog is about soul, vision, photography, art direction.
About images from various eras treating the same themes — INVESTIGATION, revealing unexpected lineages — GENEALOGY, or simply reflecting a similar incarnation of beauty — PHOTOFIT.
About artists and designers sharing their work and vision of beauty — RE(INTER)VIEW, unique personalities responding to questions that reveal their own relation to beauty — QUESTIONS, as well as illustrious figures expressing strong thoughts on the topic — STATEMENTS.
Lastly, it’s about beauty in its most methodical, codified form, through a collection of beauty guides — MANUALS that delight and fascinate me in their capacity to portray an era or a culture. A portrayal that may be idealized, skewed, utopian… and sometimes true.
Ya gotta give it to him, he’s clearly done his research.
