The 5-Minute Face: The Quick & Easy Makeup Guide for Every Woman
Good beauty advice is hard to come by these days. Women are constantly inundated with products that promise to remove wrinkles, reduce puffiness, highlight cheekbones, hide blemishes, and make them look younger, healthier, tanner, and even thinner–but do these products really work? Are they worth the time, money, and effort? Carmindy, makeup artist on TLC's popular show What Not to Wear, believes that the secret to a great look is to focus on the positive: learn how to enhance your best natural features with sheer washes of color rather than hide under layers of artificial–looking makeup. In The 5–Minute Face, Carmindy shares her beauty philosophy, offering a practical, easy, and always–successful makeup routine that works for all ages and skin types. The steps for achieving the five–minute face–from smoothing on foundation, to slicking on lip color–are simple. But as Carmindy demonstrates, many women don't know which product is right for their skin tones, or are clueless on how to apply makeup for optimal results. Throughout every chapter, she provides valuable advice on perfecting the makeup technique that is right for your face, including product tips and accompanying "toolbox" sections that describe which tools to use with each type of makeup. No matter what your age is, or whether you have porcelain skin or rosacea, Carmindy will help you look fabulous. In addition to the 5–minute makeover, she discusses:
•How to Get Brows That Wow: Learn what brow shape best frames your face
•What's Age Got to Do with It?: Tricks and trade secrets that keep every woman looking beautiful, from teens to women fifty and over.
•Beauty Comes in All Colors: Freckles? Blemishes? Carmindy solves the problems that make finding the perfect makeup for your skin tone difficult. Also includes tips on lash dying for those fair lashes, and lash perming for those who want permanently curled lashes.
•The 10–Minute Face: Carmindy shows how to build on the 5–minute face for special occasions. Everything from sexy dates–looking right in all white at your wedding–to the perfect look for a job interview.
Accompanied throughout by Palma Kolansky's beautiful photography, The 5–Minute Face is every woman's guide to enhancing their unique and beautiful features with the perfect makeup routine. .

Eyebrows and other fish
"Scally's incredibly funny and captivating Eyebrows and Other Fish is a very personal account of the author's voyage from a heartbreaking childhood through to being an adult diagnosed with schizophrenia. The fact that Scally keeps us laughing throughout the book when tackling issues such as child abuse, social prejudice, violence and the chronic symptoms of schizophrenia is a testament to both his character and comic gift as a writer. But don't let this fool you, the book is equally a serious exploration of the barriers faced by a mental health service user and a real revelation into how "schizophrenic" thought patterns can manifest themselves. The intimate insight Scally provides would be invaluable to anyone interested in mental health issues. This thought provoking book is not for the faint hearted - the author pulls no punches throughout. It is unique in that it will leave you with both a sense of angry indignation and deep admiration. Indignation at the failure of the state to protect people from what are society's most disturbing nightmare scenarios, and admiration for the author in overcoming these hurdles with such great humour and in having the courage to share it all with us." - By Craig Prescott, Parliamentary Research Assistant Description Although Eyebrows and other fish is written in a colloquial style which you don't often find in printed books, and is at times almost alarmingly honest about aspects of Scally's personal life (and therefore not recommended for anyone with a sensitive disposition), it is an extremely absorbing account of life "with a head full of chaos". If you want to know what it is like to live with the kind of thought patterns that lead to a diagnosis of schizophrenia, to get a sense of how it feels to be labelled with such a diagnosis, and to get a handle on what it is like to find yourself on the receiving end of the best and worst of mental health services, this is the book to read. About the Author Anthony Scally was born in Manchester England in 1965. He spent some time in care both as a young child and as an adolescent. He left school in 1981 with two CSE's (Cabinet Making and English). Ten years later Anthony was diagnosed with Paranoid Schizophrenia and in the early 90s he was involved in a campaign working with the media on issues relating to schizophrenia. He has five children and is looking forward to the arrival of what will be his first Grandchild. He still lives in Manchester with his cat 'Bojangles' although Anthony would say it is he who belongs to Bo the cat..

The Eyebrow
Robyn Cosio experiences creative giddiness every time she meets a new client's eyebrows "What other calling allows you to give women an instant 'facelift' that will elevate their spirits as well as widen and enlarge their eyes?" the author and renowned make-up artist asks in The Eyebrow, a thoroughly fascinating encyclopedia on eyebrow beauty. Starting with a historical view of the brow, Cosio includes bizarre facts--for example, fashionable women of the early 1700s wore false eyebrows cut from mouse hides to make themselves look perpetually surprised. The bulk of the text and photos, however, is devoted to the famous eyebrows of the 20th century, including those of Greta Garbo, Lauren Bacall, Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Ali McGraw, and Uma Thurman. Drawing parallels between the fashions, politics, and ideology of each decade, Cosio shows how the eyebrow has given shape to different eras--more perky and defined in the '50s, wild and wayward in the early '70s, powerful and statement-oriented in the '80s. She also devotes a section to understanding the allure and hidden messages behind the male eyebrow. By the time readers reach the final chapter, they'll be itching to use their tweezers. Fortunately, Cosio delivers 25 well-illustrated pages on how to find the ideal brow design and offers a slew of tips for tweezing and maintaining shape. Simply flipping through the pages of this generously photographed book will make you look upon your own eyebrows--and just about everyone else's--with a new eye. --Gail Hudson.
