Looking beautiful with only a little make-up

Over the years, this book has been my best help to age gracefully and to feel my best. I am now 57 years old, and I feel fresh and alive, with both an inner glow and an outer one. Having learned through the Color system how to find clothes that flattered my natural coloring, I can easily highlight with make-up. Whether we are going fly-fishing or getting dressed for a fancy party, I need only a small kit to make me feel my best.Thank you, Carole Jackson, for helping us to be the special women we already are.

It works.

I look so much better in the colors she suggests for my season (winter/cool). I tried wearing "brown" makeup when it was "in", and I looked really terrible and SICK. So I came back to my winter colors and it really is amazing to me how much better you can look when you wear the right colors. I've looked at the book so many times over the years, it fell apart and now I'm ordering another!

Color Me beautiful is #1!

Color me beautiful is a great book and very informative. It's clear in its techniques and gives timeless advice. I use it as a reference constantly when giving tips to my frineds. The colors and pictures are clear and concise. If your looking for that kind of book, Color Me beautiful is the best!

Perfect for any makeup or image professional training course

This book is perfect for introducing color and image to students and other beauty professionals who are not sure of colors. The Color Me Beautiful series has been used as textbooks for 10 years in my makeup course. If you want to know what colors look best, this book will be the best.

Outstanding, easy to read and follow color guides

"Color Me Beautiful" is a terrific way to be introduced into the world of make-up colors and other fashion techniques. I read it as though it were a novel, and, after learning the colors that are right for me and practicing the techniques, gave my new face, whch had been make-up free for about 20 years, a trial run. The response has been amazing. Ms. Jackson's focus of the application of make-up is to apply it in a way that it is not noticeable. She gives examples of people who have used the techniques she describes. I have had experiences similar to those who are exemplified in the book. Though the book is primarily about make-up and it's application, Ms. Jackson also touches on hair, nails and fragrance. She gives short, simple tips that add to the make-up regime and are easy to work with. With her seasonal color chart, the reader can hardly miss both looking and feeling beautiful. The finishing touch of the book is Ms. Jackson's brief discussion of inner beauty. The combination of inner peace, feeling good about yourself, and the beauty created by the art of applying make-up equals a happy, friendly, and beautiful woman. Thank you, Carole Jackson, for writing such a wonderful book.
