Customer Reviews

Intelligent info from an insider

YOUR MAKEOVER is an attractive book bound in a useable three-ring like binding. The photos are good, and like the author says, not retouched, which is encouraging. Before and after pictures are shown, and the models are not all of the Cosmo-cover variety (but they do all look beautiful in the "after" stage).DeMann's style is very engaging, and her prose is levelheaded as well as observant. Her tips are factual and helpful, and this book is clearly not designed to give anyone an inferiority complex but instead, to help build self-esteem while teaching to enhance your natural assets.The information in this book could not possibly be outdated because DeMann's core philosophy is that the person and not the makeup should be the focus. Therefore, most of the tips in the book are aimed at the natural look, which can never be outdated.Bottom line: useful book written in an engaging style with many attractive photos. Definitely user-friendly.

Thank You Morgen!

As someone who works and really only has 10 minutes in the morning, this was a huge help! If I buy make-up once a year, it is a feat, and this book has made it much easier. It might be overly simplified for true beauty junkies, but if you want people to notice you and not your makeup, this is it! Also helpful was the fact that the phots are not re-touched, so you really can duplicate the results! I thank you and my husband thanks you :)

Well written for the makeup novice.....

What a great book for those of us who aren't blessed with perfect anything! I found this book to have simple and helpful tips that are written for my level of experience. The photos help me learn how to apply makeup, since I don't normally take the time to do it. I've learned how to make simple changes in my hair and face that totally change the way I look, with minimal effort. People may confuse the clearly written advice as being oversimplified, but for the make-up un-sophisticated woman like me, you'll find them refreshingly easy to follow! Thanks Ms. DeMann!

Magnificant Makeover

I have read many books and magazine articles about makeovers, and I have never been able to follow through with many of them because they usually require me to go out and get hard to find or expensive items. I truly love this book and I have two teenage daughters that love it also. One found a hairstyle she wanted to have and got and used the book tips for maintaining a beautiful hairstyle. And my other daughter used the tips on nail care and she is having a blast and actually following through with the tips and has also let her girlfriends see her book in order to get ideas . I found the tips on hairstyles for rounder faces especially helpful. I have since put my hair up in various styles and my husband has actually commented to me that I look slimmer. I can go on and on but really wanted to tell the author: I really truly am going to enjoy this book and not just for myself but my daughters as well. My husband will love the fact it will cost us very little to maintain our beauty. I will gladly tell my family and friends to purchase your book. And please continue to put your wonderful tips in writing. Thank You
