A must for any beauty lover 🥰🤩💕
What can I say about this book, this is the book that 14 year old me (much older than that now 23 years older) is crying that she didn’t own. If you like beauty a little or a lot, there is something for everyone and something new stands out each read. I have read it a few times since getting a copy at their book signing a couple of weeks ago (you also need to go follow them both on Instagram- 1) they are lovely ladies 2) their love and passion for the industry they work in, you can tell they love their jobs) and it really shows in this book 💕

This was a gift
Bought book for my 16yr old daughter, to read during lockdown, she enjoyed reading it and got some very good tips, she has just started a beauty course at college and a youtube channel.

Rendered useless by lack of pictures
First, the good things about this book: it has a high-quality cover, is printed on good paper and looks gorgeous. It feels "expensive". Sadly, that's where the good news ends. There aren't many pictures and some of the ones that are there, whilst very pretty, are irrelevant to the text. This means that there is no guide to the beauty techniques it is teaching you! The worst offender is probably the winged eyeliner page where the picture is totally different to what the text is telling you to do, but there are other examples. I bought this book hoping to learn new make-up techniques but the lack of pictures renders it next to useless. The writing is mostly basic beauty tips that you will already know if you've ever read a beauty magazine. I didn't pay the full RRP as I bought a secondhand copy but still feel a bit ripped off. One of the authors has another make-up book called "Easy On The Eyes" that actually has useful pictures and teaches some techniques so that might be a better buy.
