Customer Reviews

Very Handy
When planning a wedding and your own look and style, the last thing you want to do is go through hundreds of magazines, folding pages, having sheets ripped out that don't tell you product details... what a waste of time and effort.
I'm a bride-to-be and have found this book very handy. Clearly the people using this book who have given it a poor rating, aren't using it for what it's designed for.
If you're looking for tips on application methods - join a class!
This book does exactly what it intended to do. It's a guide to bridal looks. A style book. Simple.

beautiful look book
A very beautiful book. Would have liked to have seen more heavy traditional ideas like the front cover. Would recommend it to anyone who is getting married or loves make-up. I also bought Naveedas make up dvd which is wicked which i would recommed even more!

Very Disappointed Customer
I bought this book and found that the descriptions of the looks (i.e. the products listed for the looks) are mainly incorrect. When enquiring with the make-up artist, I was told it wasn't their problem and that i should contact the publisher. When i contacted the publisher i was invited to ask about a specific look to which i wanted the correct details. When i wrote back asking for the correct information for all the errors in the book I did not get a response.

This book is not worth getting - you are better off buying Asiana Wedding or Asian Bride or any other asian wedding publication.
