I purchased this book as I am very interested in makeup artistry and I am a major fan of Iman's makeup line. Also because someone lifted my last book (this is my second copy purchased). This book was very informative. The seller sent me a very excellent quality book (condition same as one in store). The details and color photos were/are very helpful The tips for skin care and proper makeup application was informative. This book is great for anyone looking to learn proper makeup usage. I especially love how this this book gives tips geared to all skin tones and types. I love that this is not just a book for black women but for all women...as Iman says, beauty comes in all colors. I found this to be a major asset to my beauty book collection.
I enjoy this book. I am not at all experienced in makeup, and the information on skin types, brushes to use, and different makeup formulas was excellent. I bought it because I saw it at the library, and wanted my own copy to use (and get dirty)! I haven't read many other makeup books, but I like this one because of its emphasis on skin issues that women of color may have, and the celebrity pictures. The before-and-after pics are great too, they show you what just a little effort will do.
I loved reading about Iman's experiences with skin color, finally someone understands all the billions of shades people can be and how hard it is to find shades of makeup to work with! I have gone my entire life without wearing makeup but now I have something to help me figure it out! I reccomend this book because it will make you feel beautiful no matter what your skin color:)
Amazing book!! I loved how simple the explanations were, it was very informative as to why it is good to know skin type and how to take care of your skin. I loved the high gloss pictures. I just wish it had more details on technique but it is definitely helpful for women of color. It seemed like every nationality was covered!! Great job Iman!!
I got this book to know a little bit more about makeup for "dark" skin. This book is great, gives you information on how to clean your face,what kind of foundation is better for your skin, what colors will suit you best, etc... Its a great buy and I would recommend it to anyone, especially women who go from light golden/beige skin to really dark skin.
