The Eternally Young Joan Collins

Basically this book is a fallow up to Joan Collins' 1995's Health, Youth and Happiness. She said it all in the first book and basically gives the same advice in this one too. If you are a Joan Collins' fan than you'll enjoy the book for her candor, good health and beauty tips, and some very good photographs of Miss Collins looking her best. One thing the reader would appreciate more if Miss Collins would be forthcoming on whether she has had cosmetic surgery to enhance her looks. On and all it ls an entertaining book told by Miss Collins in her own humorous style, reminiscing about some of her Dynasty days, her own personal views on life love and aging and above all being positive and strong in life, staying with the adage that you are as old as you feel.

Fun and Interesting

Ms. Collins gives basic, common sense. Sometimes we just don't think about those things. She is very encouraging when you're having a bad day. Pick it up and see that life isn't all peaches and cream because you're famous.

Joan Really Does Know!!!!...

I've been fascinated by Joan since I was a kid and have always looked at her as being absolutely fabulous (I'm 34 now so I've been a fan for a loooooong time). She dishes out sound advice with eloquence and humanity. Ms. Collins comes across as a good friend showing you the way rather than someone who is lecturing and pointing fingers. She is down to earth but at the same time quite regal and very intelligent. I love the exercise and diet tips (stay away from those processed/sugared up foods and a glass of wine a day won't hurt. Amen, I would have a wine with lunch but my job doesn't allow it.) as well as the tips on glamour, dressing, makeup, socializing, not being a doormat etc... I've always looked up to the old glamour of Hollywood because the Paris Hiltons, Lindsay Lohans etc... could learn a great deal from the old Hollywood ways. Honestly, I don't understand the fascination with these new girls and as Collins points out much of the modern set all look the same. I don't care what anyone says, there is nothing special about them. She also relates things using really great anedotes from her own life and career. I found these to be witty and an effective teaching tool. If anything, pick up a copy of this book and read it for yourself. It is a great read and there is always much to learn from women of "a certain age" (as the French call more mature women) especially Ms. Collins.

Joan's Way is the Best Way!

"Joan's Way" by Joan Collins is an informative read on proper nutrition (that does allow one to indulge!) fantastic exercise routines (that work, trust me) skin, hair and nail care solutions (all practical, effective and quite low cost) vitamin supplementation (all medically sound) and assorted lifestyle tips, including travel and the quest for happiness. Always practical and with a flair for living the good life Collins is chatty and warm rather than stern and commanding in her writing. Accompanied with exclusive photographs by Brian Aris this book is essential for everyone who wants to live life to the fullest and enjoy themselves while looking and feeling fabulous at the same time!
