Customer Reviews

Disappointing
I've found it very hard to buy a make up book as the reviews on all of them give little information about what's in the book. What I was looking for was a big glossy book full of pictures of different looks that I could copy, preferably sorted into hair & skin colour so you know what will suit you. As no reviews on any books said the book provided this I took a shot and bought this one, loads of 5 star reviews so must be good? I was very disappointed, there is nothing about what colours will suit different hair and skin tones, very few pictures, mostly just tiny pictures of the odd product or an eye on it's own. The only full pictures are on chapter headings and are too wacky to use. I learnt nothing form the book, the tips are all obvious stuff that any experienced user of make will already know. If you're looking for a book full of different looks with helpful hair & skin tone guides this isn't it. I've marked it so low as I cannot see what use it is to anyone really, it's tiny with very few pictures and there is nothing in it that you couldn't find out for free by watching any day time women's show, from a beauty counter or free on the web.

An Excellent guide
This is an excellent guide to everything you always wanted to know. It contains lots of little tips that no one had ever shared with me, but really work. It is an easy read, and i would recemmend it.

A Beauty Must Have
This book is both informative and beautiful. It offers advice from top people in the industry and is fully illustrated with exquisite colour photos. It starts with the history of cosmetics (Egyptian/Roman era) working it's way into the future, and covers a wide diversity of area's from cleansing the face to caring for your toenails.

It really is a must have book and will complement the smallest of make-up collections.
