There's more to beauty than lotions, potions, and perfume. The Beauty Room is a charming, light-hearted celebration of the world of beauty. It's an amusing story about this esoteric world, a world full of pseudoscience and beautifying promises. It follows the life of Barbara Day a character from Grahame's first book "The Dressing Room." It begins at a prestigious Beauty Awards Ceremony in London in 2002 and then goes back to 1950 where it all began for Barbara, working for the mysterious Madame Jacqueline Deveze in her salon in the Northern Textile Town of Huddersfield in England. The book follows Barbara's amusing journey to become a name in the beauty industry, and we are introduced to designer fashions, hairstyles, lotions, potions, perfumes, beaus, and some of life's amusing foibles.
