Make up book reviewed by a Make up artist!!
As a make up artist myself (4 years experience, professionally trained) i like to keep up to date with new fashions and looks and this book looked fun...but dont be fooled by the cover. Linda Mason has been a make up artist for quite a while but her work is very messy, nothing original, her guidelines for gettin the looks was all wrong missin steps out. I know that this book is not for MUA's but for people who may not be too experienced with make up and want to learn somethin new. I think readers would be much better off goin to MAC online and readin their "tips" and "get the look" sections, also on youtube there are many step by step videos on how to get different looks. I think this book was a waste of money but as its only £6 (was £16) its not a biggy!!

Very Helpfull
The condition was perfect. The content was very helpfull. Make up looks which everyone can do just by having this book.
