Everyone tells the models they're gorgeous, but as long as they work they must guard against imperfection -- the bloodshot eye, the puffy face. They diet rigorously, and smoke to keep the weight off. Even on good days, models fret that they are not perfect enough. "A girl comes to a shoot with a pimple, and everyone's mumbling about her," says Kevyn Aucoin, a New York makeup artist.
