Review and Giveaway: Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual

The most important part of the title of this book is: "For everyone from Beginner to Pro"

I don't wear a lot of make-up. For a long time I didn't wear any. But I have a baby face that makes people think I'm a lot younger than I am, and people suggested wearing make-up would make me look older. So I gave it a try and ended up looking like a baby wearing make-up. :)

I do, however, have an interest in it and in finding that perfect look that will make me look every one of my 28 years.

The Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual, therefore, is perfect for someone like me. It starts at the beginning with all the basic information you need, is full of tips, pictures and charts to help you look your best. It's also helpful for anyone looking to do make-up professionally as a make-up artist, with an entire section devoted to that.

Here's the information on the book:
Bobbi Brown's Make-up Manual is the book that Bobbi Brown's fans have been waiting for: her 25-plus years of makeup styling experience distilled into one complete, gorgeous book. Bobbi looks at everything from skincare basics to every aspect of facial makeup. And Bobbi looks beyond the face with informative chapters on "Hands and Feet" and "Body Skin Care." Plus, there's a groundbreaking section of the book that will be of special interest to women who've wanted to know how makeup stylists do what they do: the top beauty secrets only these artists know, essential equipment to keep on hand, how to break into the business, and how to work with photographers and celebrities.

BOBBI BROWN'S MAKEUP MANUAL will be the only book any woman will need to look absolutely fabulous.
