What a fun and informative little book this is! A definate 'must' for all of us who LOVE makeup, hair and face products and love to read about them. Gobs of information on what's used by whom and why! Brands are mentioned from high end to discount store pricing!! AND...there are plenty of instructions and tips on creating your beauty products in your home! Tea Tree Oil (best tip for me so far!) oatmeal, lemon, honey, vaseline...you name it...there's a great use for it in this ingenious book. I've had the book for a week and have already tried several suggestions which worked great! All of the information is shared in a very 'girlfriend to girlfriend' way...with just enough bites of Hollywood gossip to satisfy everyone's 'sweet' tooth. My only suggestion?? PLEASE include an index of sorts in the next edition! I have started my own in my book..for quick reference. Hair, zits, tea tree oil uses, wrinkles, nails, astro glide...you know, for those of us that will actually USE all of these great secrets!! Thank you for a fun and useful read! I will be referring to this guide time and time again! Carol D.
THE BEST BEAUTY BOOK OUT THERE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
The Black Book of Hollywood Beauty Secrets only costs ten bucks, but it's worth much much more. I can't tell you how much money I'm already saving on cosmetics that don't work (but come in fancy packages) when I could be buying much more natural, cheaper products that work better -- the ones that the top beauties of our time really use. Why buy $50 eye cream when you can buy vitamin E oil for $4? And the vitamin E works better. In a week my fine lines were gone! Face looking dull? Try some of the all natural masks you can make in your own kitchen for less than a dollar. I even had most of the ingredients already in my own pantry. I loved this book and especialy liked that none of the stars pushed any high end cosmetics lines. I hope that these authors write another book. I need another beauty fix.

Without a doubt this is the best book currently available for those of us interested in looking great without having to mortgage our houses to pay for expensive spa treatments! Cindy Pearlman has leveraged her many years as a celebrity journalist; providing a bounty of tremendously valuable beauty tips directly from conversations held with Hollywood's finest and other notables. These tips are actually how the "beautiful people" stay beautiful! If you are seriously interested in looking great this book is a "must read."
Fabulous tips... a perfect gift

I purchased The Black Book of Hollywood Beauty Secrets after attending Kym's book reading/signing in Los Angeles. Like the book, her demonstrations were compelling and she approaches everything with humor and grace. Her book is both informative and entertaining. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for great tips that can help them feel gorgeous from head to toe. I enjoyed the book so much, I purchased a copy for my mom.
