Could have been better.

This book could have been better...the information was pretty basic,
so it would be good for the beginner, but not so much for a professional
makeup artist.
I enjoyed the layout of the book, the photos, and the easy-to-read style
of the text.
The biggest turn-off was at the very beginning on page 11 in the section
"Toner Talk". It is no wonder that the average woman thinks that she can get by without this 'basic necessity' beauty item. There are five basic types of facial cleaning products: 1) thick, rich creams 2)lighter-weight lotions 3)oil products 4)things that lather 5)facial
cleaning cloths. The first three break down makeup in a very gentle fashion and you can remove the excess with a soft cloth or tissue, but that still leaves a layer of residue (of cleanser and makeup) on the surface of the skin. The removal of this residue is extremely important to keep it from building up in the pores.
Things that 'lather'...some are actual 'soaps' and others are not.
Soaps are very stong and harsh to the skin especially with long-term usage.
Often times the 'things that lather'are so thorough that a person
does not need the toner/astringent to rinse the skin.
Facial cleaning cloths....I have not experimented enough with them to
give too much information, except to point out that they are extremely
expensive in the long run. If you do not believe me, just add up what
a one year's recommend supply would total.
It seems to me that the reason the beauty industry is so big is
because women are very uneducated on what their actual needs are so
they are constantly search and purchasing items/products that they do not need, therefore wasting their money.
Do your research. Ask more questions. Ask for samples. Find women, preferably mature women, that have beautiful skin and ask them if they would mind sharing their beauty secrets. If they are willing to share, ask them what brands they used when they were younger and what brands they are using now. The brand that they used when they were younger is the one that kept their skin protected and looking good.
You brush your teeth twice a day to prevent cavities and decay in the future, well, a good skincare program twice a day is what will help protect you from fine lines and deep wrinkles in the future. You should
not wait until you have damaged skin to start trying to protect it.
The average cost to protect your skin per day can range from fifty cents to five dollars (more if you can affort the truly expensive brands). Otherwise, you can save your money for Botox shots, dermapeel treatments, or plastic surgery...all of which are a lot more expensive. |
