Helpful Score: 2
Great for learning makeup basics for people who don't read magazine tips and didn't get very good instruction from others. The book covers essential skin care, good makeup tools and step-by-step makeup application. Word of caution: this is definitely a White woman's fashion industry perspective. The tips are simple enough for the average woman and the author tries to integrate a message of self-esteem and doing what looks natural, but the book itself is full of thin white models, singers, & actresses. There are only a few pages dedicated to women of color, and the author talks about our looks as exotic, reinforcing the idea that White women's looks are the norm.
