Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 6 Up-A book filled with dozens of practical beauty tips, diet and fitness suggestions, and fashion hints. With an emphasis on the natural, the former fashion model guides readers through bad-hair days, fashion faux pas, and the makeup techniques of the stars. Most of the supplies can be found in the home, although some readers may have to make a trip to a health-food store. Throughout, the author encourages readers to appreciate who they are and how they look and to think positively. The layout is enhanced by varied font headings and print shades but there are no illustrations. (Visual learners may have difficulty envisioning the proper application of blush without a diagram to guide them through the process, etc.) Overall, this is a handy book for anyone wanting to experiment with budget-friendly makeup and skin-care techniques.

This review is from: Teen Beauty Secrets: Fresh, Simple & Sassy Tips for Your Perfect Look (Paperback)

This book is great. It's got alot of great tips and tricks for girls. I think It's directed more to a younger teen group, but overall, anybody, teen or not, could use some of these tips! A note to parents, this book will definitely raise your childs self-esteem when it comes to beauty and body image. This book would be a great gift for a girl in your family, or a book for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEST TIP BOOK AROUND!, April 23, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Teen Beauty Secrets: Fresh, Simple & Sassy Tips for Your Perfect Look (Paperback)

This book is just packed and loaded with secrets, not all beauty secrets either. I was expecting to be all about makeup and how to apply it and blah blah blah, but it wasnt at all it was all about how to keep your skin, hair, and body staying nice and beautiful. It has tips from famous models, on how to look flawless and stay healthy. It has tips on keeping posture correct to natural hair product recipies to organization to college tips. I absolutley reccomend this book to anyone even older people not just teenagers. It is one of the best tip books around! I LOVE IT
