Customer Reviews

Fantastic! What a fun, great resource!!

First, I have to say that I really like "Queer Eye" but have only seen a couple of episodes, so I was only mildly interested in this book when I received it from a friend as a birthday gift. She loved it and swore I would too. I finally got around to reading it this week, and can't believe I waited. This book has great tips on make-up, skincare, and much more. Plus, the pictures are fantastic. Kyan Douglas could not look more beautiful. I don't understand the two negative reviews because I found this book to be very helpful and fun to read. Now, I'll be buying it for my friends! It's a must-have!

Awesome

I met Kyan at a book signing in Dallas. I had already bought and devoured the book before that. It is fantastic for women of any age (I'm 28, by the way). The best part about it is that I feel like Kyan really gets women and gets that beauty is not just skin deep (sorry to use a cliche). Beautified isn't just about hair and make-up. It is about feeling beautiful and developing "beauty" by using, yes, our physical assets, but also our minds, personalities, and interests. This is a must have beauty book, especially to use as a reference to constantly refer to for tips and inspiration.

Fantastic resource for women from mid-teens to seniors!

I first bought this book for myself and read the entire thing in two days. Then I went back and bought one for my daughter, two for my sisters, and one for Mom for Christmas. The best part about Beautified is that it covers ALL the bases and then some. I was especially glad to see that Kyan included a Spirit chapter and that, as a man, he recognizes that women need to be appealed to mind, body and spirit if they're to be appealed to at all. A few more men could stand to learn that lesson. In any case, I absolutely love the format, the photographs are gorgeous, and there are more tips than you can shake a stick at. The chapters are: Introduction: Why Beautify (I fell in love with Kyan after reading this. It's very sweet. He dedicates the book to his mother, sister and grandmother!) Chapter 1: A Good Hair Day Every Day Chapter 2: Beauty Is Skin Deep Chapter 3: Wake Up Your Make-Up Chapter 4: Groomed and Gorgeous Chapter 5: How Not To Diet Chapter 6: Shape It Up (there are some excellent fitness tips here, and all doable---at least the ones I've tried so far) Chapter 7: Your Spirit Workout (my FAVORITE chapter!) Enjoy Beautified and if you're looking for that perfect holiday book for a girl or woman in your life, this one is it.

Excellent book for beauty beginners

This book was fun to read- it is full of tips on grooming for women. It would be excellent as a reference book for women whose makeup and hair need updating, but there is also a lot of great info and tips for beauty addicts like myself!

EXCELLENT BOOK

Nice layout, GREAT Wealth of information for us women on grooming, skin care, fragrance, exercise, dieting, and generally looking and feeling great. The pictures of Kyan are pretty nice to look at too. I am impressed and would recommend this book to all women, especially the fans of Queer Eye For the Straight Guy. I am glad I picked it up today as it is a GREAT reference for looking good. GREAT JOB KYAN - THANKS!
