Book Reviews of How Not to Look Old: Fast and Effortless Ways to Look 10 Years Younger, 10 Pounds Lighter, 10 Times Better

Book Review: ordinary working women, don't bother
Summary: 2 Stars

She has a few helpful tips (pink shade of lipstick instead of darker) This chick is the beauty editor for Glamour, so of course she wants women to obsess about looks and beauty products.
Her hair advice? Find a high class stylist in New York, then get together with your fashion conscious friends and fly that stylist to your location for the weekend, put him/her up in a nice hotel, then all of you have your hair appointments that weekend. Split the cost of travel/hotel with these friends. Really. But of course, your stylist and colorist aren't necessarily the same person, cause those are different specialties. Really.
Should you buy a $300 pair of designer sunglasses, or the $10 knock offs from a street vendor? She believes the $300 pair is better choice.
She purports to give advice for us "low Maintenance" gals, but most of that is common sense stuff. Among my friends I'm not considered "low maintenance" but I don't know anyone who reaches up to this woman's standards.
My advice? Ask your teenage or college age daughter/niece/friend. they'll tell you what looks good, or what makes you look like you are trying too hard.
