Negative Positive
Title: Cute, but a real waste of money.
Review: This book reads like one long beauty magazine article. Lots of pretty pictures, but not a whole lot of content. Much of the advice given is either common-sense stuff that most people can figure out from other sources, OR very much fashion-driven and reliant upon current styles (the fact that everyone seems to own capris, yet the authors seem to hate them, is just one example). On top of it all, reading this really can make just about anyone feel "imperfect." While much of the advice is true, it does suffer from overkill a bit. More to the point, the book just isn't worth its sale price. If it was $5 or sold as a "special edition" of a beauty magazine I'd feel better about spending my money on it.
