From an Amazon buyer review: "Although this book on women and beauty was written over 20 years ago I found it both relevant and refreshing. The author Sophia Loren gives her opinions gently but firmly... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Sophia writes this book in such an easy to read way, it feels as if she’s talking directly to you. Some of the makeup/fashion advice is a tad outdated/80s but overall Sophia shares her timeless beauty secrets. Not only does she discuss makeup, hair, and fashion, she also discusses love, motherhood, exercise, and eating healthy. A lovely book written by a lovely lady!
Full of great beauty tips!

Looking for some seriously useful beauty advice from a time before Botox? I know it's hard to believe, especially as this book was published before I was born! This is it... some fantastic skin advice as to makeup, moisturizers, even making your own exfoliators and masks! I found Sophia's perspective to be warm, refreshing, charming and above all, practical. You will too!
Excellent !

Sophia Loren - Classic Elegance!

Although this book on women and beauty was written over 20 years ago I found it both relevant and refreshing. The author Sophia Loren gives her opinions gently but firmly and she makes reading about her life both entertaining and informative. Here are some of the chapters: Some Thoughts on Beauty The Pursuit of Beauty (in which she covers discipline, hair, skin, make-up, fashion and style, healthy diet, and exercise.) The Mystery of Beauty (in which she covers charm, men and love, pregnancy and motherhood, tranquility, and coming to terms with age. I certainly think any woman interested in beauty, especially women over 30 years of age would find much useful information in this book.
