Book Reviews of Beauty Secrets of the Bible
Book Review: Excellent Book.... But There's One Major Problem!
Summary: 4 Stars
I love the information that Ginger gives in reference to women, and their ancient beauty regimens, as well as the daily devotionals, and scripture included which expresses God's Love for us all and how he has uniquely created each of us. Very very very inspiring and wonderful. I myself however have developed a chemical free makeup line and have done ALOT of research on makeup ingredients. Ginger recommends Bare Escenutals aka Bare Minerals as a Makeup line to use. This company includes Aluminum as an ingredient in their makeup. Yeap it's a mineral alright, and one that will cause you possible health problems. They also include Bismuth Oxychloride in alot of their formulations and this is technically a mineral but not one you will find residing in God's creation - The Earth. It is a by-product of the lead and copper manufacturing process and is used by many companies as a texturizer because it gives a very silky finish so they don't have to grind their product as long, and has been linked to many sensitivites of the skin and unexplained erruptions. They also use some preservatives in their products. So they say it is all natural minerals, but it is not due to these issues. She also references Burt's Bee's. They have questionable ingredients in some of their products as well. Ginger also references Aloes which are named in the Bible as being Aloe Vera and gives wonderful ideas on how to use this plant. However if you research this Aloes which is refered to in the Bible is what Sandalwood Essential Oil was called during Ancient times. It was used to not only treat health issued but to embalm the dead. You can not embalm the dead with Aloe Vera. Just won't happen. So I had to give it 4 stars due to premade beauty items not being properly researched, as well as the facts on finding out what Aloes really is. Who knows, if it had not been for my deliberate research on Essential Oils, I may of assumed it was Aloe Vera as well. Overall the book is just beautiful and Ginger is a wonderful woman of God very obviously. She does give alot of wonderful insight on whole foods which I did appreciate greatly. I'd just double research any product suggestions if it isnt a whole food. I thought this would be a good foundation for presenting a new way of pampering to the women of my church who are true beauties as well. Our congregation is a mix of God's world and I see the beauty in them all weather they are Hispanic, Caucasion, Asian, African - and so does he. This book also beautifully points this all out. The devotionals are wonderful. They let you praise and worship God in so many ways as well as see how much he loves us and lets us know it is ok to beautify ourselves. God wants us to take care of ourself and to look as divine as he created us. It is all to his glory :)
Summary of Beauty Secrets of the Bible
Every woman can accentuate her God-given beauty using the hidden treasures of the ancient Scriptures.
Ginger Garrett reveals how every woman can accent her God-given beauty using the hidden treasures of the ancient Scriptures-where every scent and every act of beautification had spiritual and emotional significance.
A woman's longing to present herself as physically beautiful is universal. Beauty is extolled throughout the Bible as complementing God's plan for women's lives. There are currently no books that examine the beauty practices of biblical women, the plants and products God created to accent their beauty, and the spiritual roots of feminine rituals.
Beautiful women abound in the Bible: Queen Esther, the bride of Solomon, Delilah, Rachel, Sarah, and more. Their beauty was a gift from God, and God also supplied the many foods, spices, and oils that perfected each woman's appearance. In Beauty Secrets of the Bible, Ginger Garrett helps readers accent their God-given beauty using these secrets.
Women who read the book will understand the essential oils and fragrances mentioned in Scripture (and why they are making a comeback) and will be able to create a regimen based on all-natural ancient products and techniques. Beauty Secrets of the Bible gives readers what other beauty books lack: the knowledge that a woman's unique earthly beauty is indeed a blessing from God that can be cultivated.
