Don't be put off by the cover
By FlashDoll
When this arrived in the post I chastised myself for buying yet another beauty book on a whim. But, I was pleasantly surprised.

I've tried to figure what "season" colouring I am before, but none seemed to fit. This book is different. There are six colour groups (light, deep, warm, cool, clear, soft), all with two further sub-categories. Each category has clearly laid out palette of 30 colours to suit your complexion, with 12 further shades in your subcategory, a guide for choosing make-up & a brief demonstration on putting it all together.

I also like that the models they use though out the book are ordinary women you'd meet on the street.

The second half of the book has an excellent guide on dressing for your body shape (I've bought Gok Wan's book, but this one chapter is far better), a guide to finding your style personality (creative, dramatic, romantic, classic, natural, city chic), making the most of your face shape & putting it all together.

An excellent guide for anyone who's unsure about what basic colours & styles suit them. Geared at a 30+ market I think, but I'm 25 & loved it.

This is an excellent book!
By Lorie Hughes Thoms
Anyone who is interested in style, fashion, color, and makeup will thoroughly enjoy this book! A follow-up to Color Me Confident, this book has been updated with new photos, illustrations, and new real-life women to illustrate the concepts. Fun celebrity examples are also shown. It is especially nice to see how fantastic the real life women models look when dressed in their best colors and fashion silhouettes. You'll enjoy being able to analyze yourself in terms of your best colors, best clothing for your body shape, makeup colors and hints, best hairstyle for your face shape, etc. There is an expanded section on how to wear black in the most flattering way. The authors have done a great job updating this book-you will LOVE it!

I don,t know about change your life............but!
By Carole Hodson
This book can certainly make shopping for clothes and make-up less of a struggle. Sensible information to help you decide what colours and shapes suit you, more important than you realise. It also helps you with what to buy for your lifestyle and tastes not some "style guru" without a clue about how you live your life and what you want to say about yourself following your own style. Very useful book, well set out and easy to discover a new way of shopping and dressing.
