Not just makeup - it's life
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
When I first saw this book, I didn't think I'd appreciate it because I already had a step-by-step makeup book and another would just be an extra. However, I was very wrong: not only is this book extremely extensive, including topics about kodak moments, hair, fitness, self-esteem etc., but it had the most amazing makeup tips! I thought I heard everything and had mastered the art of makeup application, but apparantly I hadn't. I always drag this book around with me because Victoria Jackson is *so* inspiring, and has tips for everything. EVERYTHING. It's not just makeup, it's about "making up" your LIFE. Plus, it's just a gorgeous book with great photography. If you're gonna own only one makeup book, this should be it.
The Best I've Seen So Far

Victoria Jackson's book is WONDERFUL! The chapter 'Mirror, Mirror' greatly enhanced my self esteem. I also love Jackson's tips for foundation application. Much more detail than I've seen in other beauty books.
Entertaining and Informative
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
An entertaining book full of fun and informative tips for makeup and lifestyle. Loved the before and after shots and the step by step instructions for makeup application and facial contouring. After 35 years I have finally learn't how to shape my eyebrows to suit my face.....that was well worth the price of the book. The great thing about this book is that is not just about makeup, it is about selfworth and being kind to yourself. Not just about outer beauty but about letting the inner beauty shine through.
Good, basic advice for REAL women
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
There is a lot of information available today in magazines and books on makeup and beauty - but too often it assumes you are already beautiful, or want to be on (or beyond) the cutting edge. Victoria Jackson's book helps you focus on the basics of using make-up to enhance YOUR looks. Before & after photos of real women across a range of ages and skin tones present her techniques. I LOVED the techniques for the 2 minute, 5 minute and 10 minute face (with photos). The book is easy to read and clearly printed. Each chapter is devoted to one aspect - eyes, lips...and closes with line drawings and a step-by-step review. The only thing that would have improved the book for me is if the photos didn't jump from no make-up to complete make-up; I would have liked to see the steps in photos, as well as in text. Overall, I'm happy I bought the book.
