The Black Book of Hollywood Beauty Secrets

"We just asked the movie stars how they did it. What did they use? How often? Where did they get it? How can we do it, too? And they told us. We couldn?t believe it either."

Kym Douglas, host of the upcoming Lifetime makeover show Queen and the image consultant on The View, and celebrity journalist Cindy Pearlman had always wanted to know how the A-list stars looked so, well, A-list. It turns out that even the most carefully guarded stars were more than happy to dish. Collected here, in their own words, celebrities and their beauty gurus reveal their tricks of the trade.

How do they reduce puffiness, lose five pounds in a week, put shine in their hair, buff their skin, and vacuum their pores without spending a fortune? Find out from Jennifer Aniston, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Lindsay Lohan, Beyonc? Knowles, Jennifer Lopez, Elizabeth Hurley, Charlize Theron, and many, many more!

Kym Douglas is the creator and host of the upcoming Lifetime Television makeover show, Queen, airing in October and the image consultant on The View. She appears regularly on Soap Talk, Good Day Live, Before & After?noon, and Your Weekend with Jim Brickman.  more

GREAT TIPS

I loved this book. After reading some of the reviews I thought it was probably not going to be worth the money, that I could find all of the secrets out just by reading the reviews. WRONG!!! I'm 50 years old and have been reading beauty tips since I was 14, so I figured I already knew everything...

For Newbies Only

If you're brand new to beauty products then you'll probably like this. Otherwise, there is nothing new in here. If you read any women's magazines, you've seen all of this before. You're better off using the Internet.

Random chatter w/ annoying "guess who? I;'m not telling!" thrown in

It was frustrating to read things like " a certain hollywood leading lady" doing "certain things to a certain part of her body" to look years younger, etc!" When you're looking for beauty tips, who cares about the who's-who stuff? Just tell me me what works. Very disappointing.

The Black Book of Hollywood Beauty Secrets

Not only was the book helpful with the beauty secrets, but I loved the sense of humour. I look forward to the next book by these authors.

Good for newbies to makeup/skincare/haircare

If you've ever read any beauty/fashion magazines on any type of a regular basis, spoken in friend circles about beauty tricks, or are over 13 and have been wearing makeup for a few years, etc. then you already know all of this. Puffy eyes: cucumber or potato slices, chilled spoons, tea bags...

no new information in my opinion

I thought this book would be entertaining with a lot of tips and tricks for making beauty fun and easy. I love makeup and going on the occassional splurge at Sephora. But I can also be happy wandering the makeup/skin care aisles of Target. When this book is not spitting out designer labels left...

Big on hype, long on snark, short on quality...save your $$

I made the mistake of actually purchasing this book. I would've taken it back if I hadn't already thrown away the receipt, that is how BAD this book is! True beauty has nothing to do with making uncharitable and jealous comments, and it seems like every sentence in this book is prefaced with...
