Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual


I recently bought Bobbi Brown's make up book called Makeup Manual. With over two hundred full colored photos and step by step instructions including a 10 step guide to perfect makeup that teaches you how to apply your makeup in 10 min. or less, Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual shows you how to put on makeup like a pro. The book covers
* Skin care Basics: Cleansing, moisturizing, and diet-even the vitamins your skin, hair, and nails need to be their healthiest
* Brushes and Other Tools of the Trade: What you should own, how to use different brushes and tools, and how to care for them
* Eye Makeup: A complete, detailed how to of eyeliner, shadow, and mascara for every eye color and shape
* Corrector and Concealers: How to expertly cover dark circles
* Choosing the Right Shades and Colors of Makeup: Tips for every skin tone and skin type
* Bronzers and Self Tanners: How to get that sun kissed look without sun damage
* Special Ocassion Makeup: Bridal makeup and evening makeup, including how to achieve the perfect smokey eye
... and more.
This book is a must to any aspiring Makeup Artist. It taught me much, and Inspired me much more.

  3. The book is a total of 221 pages long, but that's including the resource guide, acknowledgements and that other stuff. It has lots of pictures, and plenty of information. Yes definitely more than an hour. I couldn't put it down. I just wanted to read and learn. I have other books which I am going to post here in the future. I will try and post some pictures of this one to let you guys in sometime this week. :)
