Have you ever bought a cosmetic or skin-care product that made a claim it didn't live up to? Like a wrinkle cream that didn't erase your wrinkles, or an all day lipstick that didn't last all day? Have you ever asked yourself questions like these:
- What's the difference between the $25.00 blush and the $3.50 blush?
- Is it better to use "all natural" products on my skin?
- What does "all natural" mean?
- What products work best to get rid of my wrinkles?
If so, this book is for you. Paula Begoun draws on her 25 years of experience as a makeup artist and cosmetics researcher to bring you the facts about cosmetic and skin care products. She backs up her claims with research and references from 38 separate research sources. In the body of the text, she supports her claims with appropriate scientific references like you would see in a research paper. I found this book to be a refreshing look at the cosmetics industry that cuts through the hype to the facts.
