Makeup The Ultimate Guide Bobbi Brown
Bobbi Brown Makeup Kits
This book is organized beautifully and is full of all the makeup advice you will ever need. It is easy to understand and the photos are pleasing to look at.
It has chapters on each type of makeup (foundation, powder, blush, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, lipstick), as well as skin care, makeup tools, makeup organization and storage, etc. It tells you how to make a 'flaw' a signature feature you can be proud of, how to do your makeup for an interview, and more. It contains practical advice about how to find your own makeup style, how to choose colors for your skin type, and how to be natural beauty by using secrets of the trade.This book is not about becoming something you are not by painting and contouring your face, it's about working with what you have and making the most of the features you were blessed with. It is an education in basic beauty techniques that will help you look fabulous, no matter who you are.I am 29 years old and I knew a lot about makeup and felt pretty good about how I looked before I read this book, but I learned a few simple things that have helped me look in the mirror and see how beautiful I can really be. (Her tip on yellow-toned powder is my favorite!) I highly recommend it for women of all ages and skin-types. In today's day and age appearance really matters. That's why this book is so great.
I've seen countless ladies with tacky, loud or unflattering makeup that has thrown off an otherwise polished look. Bobbi Brown's approach to makeup will help you avoid that sort of mistake. Whether you are a young professional woman who's looking for a more serious look or you are an older lady who would just like to feel beautiful in your own skin, this is a great resource. It will teach you the overall concepts and (most importantly) the specific techniques for applying cosmetics in a way that enhances your natural beauty. You won't look made up, you'll look gorgeous. I'm not a makeup maven, not by a long shot. Up until last week, I was a stay-at-home mom who knew very little past a little lipstick and the absolute basic brushes.
I picked 'Beauty' up because I was interested in sprucing up my look a bit for when I do leave the house, for church, various special occasions and errand running. Just because I spend a good portion of my time indoors doesn't mean I have to look like I just rolled out of bed when I go out. I'm still a stay-at-home mom, but my look more closely reveals how wonderful I feel on the inside. 'Beauty' addresses the basics of make-up, from tools, to easy application, to how-and where-to shop for make-up. Bobbi also talks at length about loving the looks that God gave you. There are separate chapters on Black, Asian, and Latina beauty, as well as wedding day beauty (oh that I had this book on MY wedding day four-and-a-half months ago!) and make-up for photography and television.

When they say ULTIMATE, they weren't kiddin'. This is a good reference for beginners and the experienced alike. My husband is a theatrical make-up artist, and even he found a little useful information. This is a comprehensive, not to mention concise, addition to any beauty library. I made a very smart buy!
