You can find Part 1 of the review for this book here.
By the B’s, I’m angry
I’m not angry at the exaggerated claims. I’m used to ignoring that.
I’m not angry at the inflated prices. If you agree to take the saleswoman’s word, without accessing this totally available information, it’s your own fault.
I am infuriated at [...]

January 20, 2008
When Paula Begoun published the last edition of this book in 2002, she said it would be the last time. I tell you truthfully that my heart skipped a few beats when I read that. Thank heavens, she changed her mind.
If we ever meet, I’m going to take her out for salad, dessert, and Diet [...]

January 14, 2008
No more lies
Are you tired of buying jars of face cream, tired of the feeling of hope as you hand over your cash that some really noticeable change will take place, only to admit 3 months later that nothing happened, or maybe you didn’t even finish it all?

SUNSCREEN MATTERS TO YOU
October 17, 2007
This is the second article in the Skin Care category, but by order of importance, it should have been the first. I might keep posting it once a month to make sure no one misses it.
To women of all ages : Do not delay another day
Whether you are fifteen or forty, you need [...]
THE BEAUTY BOOK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE
October 14, 2007
This is the second story that will introduce the series of articles on how to select skin care and makeup products that do what you expect them to. Most of the time, skin care products are like computers - they hardly ever do what you think they will. I want to talk to you about [...]

I don’t want any more time to go by without you knowing about this fantastic product, so it is the first article in the Skin Care category. I have never used a better eye cream. It’s called Skin Recovery Moisturizer. It’s made by Paula’s Choice.

TEENAGE MAKEUP WOES
October 6, 2007
This article will be the first in a series about skin care and spending wisely with a particular focus on recognizing products that perform. This is quite possibly my preferred topic. I’m going to tell you two stories and this is the first.
I discover The World Of Beauty (to my mother’s distress)…
It begins when [...]
