Product Description
A celebration of beauty across the generations. This positive-outlook guide for women reflects, as Bobbi says, "What happens to us as we make our way through life, and how we can continue making ourselves better." Bobbi shares her candid views of her own beauty odyssey, as well as her formidable makeup expertise, to help women feel good about themselves at every age. In the engaging, down-to-earth style that's pure Bobbi, she addresses the need-to-know issues we all face at one time or another -- from how to deal with changes in skin to what adjustments in makeup application are really necessary (and appropriate) as we get older. Also included are the personal, heartfelt thoughts of women from all walks of life -- all ages, shapes, sizes, and ethnicities -- reflecting on what beauty means to them. Their words serve to underscore Bobbi's message that true beauty "comes from having confidence and feeling good about who you are."

Not very helpful ( michelle4547 )
I was hoping that this book might give me tips on how to apply makeup, what would work best for my face shape, lip shape, eye size, skin color, etc. But it was too general in my opinion. I haven't found any tips that I have carried with me. So I'm still looking for a good book on how to apply makeup!

not that great ( kisses4ux3333 )
I found this book to be simple things we already know and instead of really focusing on how to do make up better it's kind of like a self-help. I mean the mssg is great that everyone is beautiful in their own way, but I bought this book hoping it would be about make up in a more intense manner.

Kind of old, but still up-to-date
I bought this book almost 5 years ago, and all the advice it contains is not outdated yet. Good advice on how to apply makeup, which are the best shades according to the age, hair color, skin tone and even race (I am Hispanic, although not the typical black haired with olive skin). After reading the book, I decided to highlight my hair and it really made a difference! The only thing I did not like is that sometimes, it became sort of Bobbi-centered, due to the great amount of pictures of herself and her family and relatives.

A "feel good" book ( mouldering_sanctum )
I'll be honest with you: this is more of a "feel good" book than a book about beauty hints and tips or makeup. I really wish Bobbi Brown would have written more about skin care and makeup than fill the pages with photographs.

Realistic and Practical. Beautfiul and Reasonable. The only beauty book you will need ( ningning_org )
Years ago I wanted to learn how to apply cosmetics properly. The natural look on this book's cover attracted me so I bought it. It turned out that this book is far more than how to make a natural look. The beauty tips are organized by several very sensible categories: 1. process: step-by-step makeup guide; 2. Makeup recipes tailored according to how much time you can afford for a make up: 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, or 20+ min; 3.Beauty tips for females in different age groups: 20s, 30s, 40s...till 100s; 4. Tailored makeup recipes according to your skin tone and hair colour.
Other very useful information like how to organize your makeup tools, plastic surgery or not, etc. are also provided.
Finally Ms Brown also does not forget to remind you beauty is not only about hair, face, skin and figure. It's about healthy life style and healthy attitude toward yourself and the life.
All in all, this book serves as a very good makeup reference to me. And I like Ms Brown's attitude toward the makeup thing. Anyone whose main interest is not in makeup/fasion but still want to appear polished in public should get this book.
