5.0 out of 5 stars Best Beauty Book Ever Written!, November 29, 1999

By 

Sherry Williams (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 911 Beauty Secrets: An Emergency Guide to Looking Great at Every Age, Size and Budget (Paperback)

At last the beauty book I've been searching for. Ms. Irons has covered just about every beauty problem there is at every age. It's all here in one book including diet,skincare, beauty supplements, foods to eat, clothing care, cellulite, remedies for age spots, spider veins,frizzy hair, and lots of money saving insider secrets. I liked the way the book was structured. It's easy to read..just the tips without a ton of self-serving stories about the author's life or clients (although there are a lot of model's secrets). My favorite chapters are the emergency diets, attitude & style, cosmetic quick fixes and secret remedies. I plan to use this book as a constant reminder that I don't have to spend a fortune to look beautiful. My friends and I are planning a millenium party and are looking to trying the many spa secrets on each other.

I have never purchased a book that was as interesting as this one is. I use it almost every day, from cold sores to pimples. I have not yet found a remidy that does not work. I recommend this book to both men and women of all ages. I get phone calls from all my friend to ask what do I do for this and what to I do for that. It is absoluty the best beauty book on the market. Thanks Amason and thanks to the View for having the woman on. Linda Deakins Toronto, Canada

5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable Information on Every Aspect of Beauty, February 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: 911 Beauty Secrets: An Emergency Guide to Looking Great at Every Age, Size and Budget (Paperback)

Here it is, finally in one place. Everything you ever wanted to know about hair, makeup, fashion, celebrities, all in this one great book. From the latest beauty supplements to 2 day emergency diets that the stars use, 911 Beauty Secrets covers it. Many of the beauty solutions can be made at home or bought inexpensively from the grocery or drugstore. Diane Irons simplifies beauty so that we ALL can get there. If you're sick and tired of those "coffee table" beauty books and need some practical solutions, at last it's here. I highly recommend it.
