Amazing wealth of international beauty tips!

I've bought many copies for gifts. I also have two copies for myself. Though it could have been so much better with illustrations and some photos, it is still one of my absolute favorite beauty books!This is because of the rich diversity of beauty treatments, adornments, fashion, and grooming tips described. It would be a particularly great book for a young woman/teen of non-European or multiracial descent living in the United States where the beauty standard is still quite shockingly narrow.This book teaches pride in one's own unique beauty and cultural aspects (from China, Africa, India, Brazil, Japan, the Caribbean, Mexico, Indigenous Americas and more) There's also a great intro history of beauty and adornment from ancient times to the present, "Beauty Throught the Ages" which I totally love!

This book is great, and the recipes are so easy

I really enjoyed reading this book. Anyone can use it, not just women of color. The recipes are simple and most are ingredients we have or can acquire at the store. The book also gives an interesting tidbit with each recipe, showing how each on worked for someone. It also gives advice on what not to do in terms of beauty. I recommend this book to everyone!

The best "make your own beauty treatments at home" book

I really enjoyed this book. It is full of interesting recipes for various beauty treatments you can make at home, and each one is accompanied by a story about an exotic place, and/or historical information about the recipe. I want to try every one in the book!!!
