Offering page after full page of informative color photos, everything from head to toenails is covered in striking close-up. Marie Claire Makeup is filled with lessons that will give you great results: find the freshest palettes for each season and smart ways to camouflage the effects of stress and exhaustion on your skin; see how to enhance facial structure, contour and highlight eyes with Technicolor brilliance, put on false eyelashes, shape brows, and create luscious lips in shades ranging from near-natural to the sexiest red. It’s a step-by-step guide to creating the right look for every face and any occasion.

Summary: Pretty good...
Comment: Let me start by saying that I am NOT a professional make-up artist. I am a make-up addict though and have always been interested in it. I know the basics, but my routine was getting old and I needed something new now that I am getting older. At first skim through, the book isn't all too impressive. Fancy pictures, old information, and some new ideas. The interviews were cute too. I did find some stuff that I really appreciated.
Definitely worth a look.
Depending on your level of make-up expertise, you can decide if purchasing or borrowing it and making a few copies is best for you.

Summary: Eye Candy but no substance
Comment: I received this book as a gift after reading a review in a local newspaper. I was anxious to try any techniques since I am a 40 year old mom who knows the basics of make-up application, but wanted some inside tricks. The pictures are gorgeous, but impractical for everyday wear, like bold yellow shadow with turquoise liner. The tips that were practical were ones that I already knew from other sources. It glossed the surface of wearing make-up for different age levels. So I did not get much out of tricks for a 40 year old face. Like I said, this book is just eye candy.
