I Love It!!!,
By Carrie (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual: For Everyone from Beginner to Pro (Hardcover)
I absolutely love this book! I am in my early 40's and only just beginning to play with make-up, I know, can you believe it!? As a teenager I always felt that I made such a hash of putting on make up and really didn't know where to begin anyway or how to choose colours to suit me. I ended up leaving it by the wayside, apart from a little mascara and lipstick/gloss from time to time and on special occasions. However, just a month or so ago I felt inspired to look into it again and asked somebody to recommend a book, to help get me started on the basics. This make-up manual by Bobbi Brown was suggested and within days I had ordered it from Amazon ..... now there's no looking back. It has greatly demystified the use of make-up for me and shown me how to build up from a strong foundation (no pun intended). It is my bible of the moment and I refer to it frequently. This would be a fabulous gift for anyone new to make up, teenage daughters, nieces, grandaughters etc or anybody who would just like a good reference guide for the basics. I am having such fun playing now, experimenting to find colours that suit me, textures, tools etc and am already improving in confidence with my make-up choices, application and on a personal level as I look in the mirror and sometimes actually love what I see! It's amazing what a little make-up can do. I highly highly recommend this book with no reservation. I must admit, Bobbi doesn't always go into as much detail as I would like. For example: I would like more pictures to show exactly how to contour the eyes, instead of a few words telling you what you can do. I have also bought Jemma Kidd's 'Make-up Masterclass' book as an additional reference book and the two seem to complement each other very well. Overall though, if I was picking one book on make-up and how to apply it, this would definitely be 'the one'.

interesting book, clear advice,

This review is from: Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual: For Everyone from Beginner to Pro (Hardcover)
i bought this book for my teenage daughter who is inexperienced in using make up. I hoped that this would provide clear advice about how to look after your skin, avoid the usual gaffs of wearing too much make up and give some advice on how to make the most of a young complexion. The book proved to be clear, helpful and sufficiently interesting to her to read it and see the expertise as helpful.The book would be interesting for anyone who wants to get the most from the products they buy, regardless of age.

Very disappointing,
By
This review is from: Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual: For Everyone from Beginner to Pro (Hardcover)
If it is make up advice that you are looking for, go elsewhere. The sections describing how to apply make up provide only very limited guidance; less than any women's magazine or even the insert in any item of Jemma Kidd make up. In fact, Bobbi Brown's website itself is better than this book.
