Review: ...save up on beauty magazine expenses and buy this book instead! Beauty, fashion, and style, tips which you usually see in small portions in beauty magazines are sprinkled all throughout this book. "The World's Best-Kept Beauty Secrets" compiles everything for your easy reference. Learn what fashion models actually do to look slimmer, or to have glistening pearly whites, or to have flawless complexion. Read and try the beauty tips and recipes that can be found in this book. (Always do a skin patch test first, though to save yourself the trouble of skin irritation later on.) You can see a collection of beauty tips that range from the simple and expected to the downright unbelievable (the kitty litter facial mask, for example). As for me, I found that breaking up a caplet or two of Vit. E and squeezing its contents in my shampoo makes my hair healthier. The recipes with honey in it are also beneficial for me. And I found out that massaging coffee grounds on my body skin is indeed a surprisingly inexpensive way to make it suppler. An entire section is also devoted to simple and healthy meals that you can whip up fast, for you, or for your guests to feast on.

Summary: Light as a meringue
Review: I don't think any reader's review will do this great book any justice. I am 56, and remember a lot of my late Mother's "beauty" secrets. Confused as I was, I had no choice other than to let her do whatever she said was necessary. In this book, you will find that home remedies do work. My own experience: Lemon Juice rinse once a month did keep me Blonde all these years(no gray hair & no Miss Clairol necessary*) I doubt that you'll read one page without asking, 'now why didn't I think of that?'. Can't give it enough praise. Give yourself a treat, just Buy it.

Review: I really love this book. It has quite a few very useful, very simple beauty/skincare tips that I use everyday now. Who knew lemon juice was as effective as a fruit acid cream? This book is a little gem--chock full of inexpensive ideas! Get one for yourself and your mom and your sister and your friend...

Summary: One of Diane's best books
Review: I recently purchased this book because I am a big fan of Diane Iron's books. All of them are filled with interesting, inexpensive, and easy-to-apply tips in diet, beauty, and fashion, and I was very pleased with "The World's Best-Kept Beauty Secrets". Diane compiles over 230 essential pages of tips, advice, and secrets. Besides covering beauty, this book also features hair care advice, very neat fashion tips, delicious recipies all under 200 calories, diet secrets, and much, much more. For example, you can make cleansing masks out of kitty litter and mayonnaise (yes, kitty litter and mayonnaise), that work just as well, if not better, than store-bought masks. What to do if that party information says "Formal Dress" or "City Attire"? Turn to this book to find a description of good things to wear! Also, an entire chapter is devoted to secrets of models that seem to always look perfect. Did you know that many models use toothbrushes to clean their lips?- the bristles help slough off dead skin. Or that small birthday candles can get a stuck zipper to get going again? How about washing that scorched shirt from your iron with a basin of hydrogen peroxide and mild detergent?- it will bring your shirt back to life! Find many more of these useful tips, and much more in "The World's Best Kept Beauty Secrets". It's a great invesment for all women, and will help you look your best no matter what.

Summary: An addendum to my earlier review (see below):
Review: This book is fabulous. I was particularly interested in the tip of using coffee grounds for cellulite control. I emailed Diane Irons office regarding a more specific application of the coffee grounds, and this is what she wrote back: "The coffee grounds should be warm when applied. Sit on the edge of your bathtub (or in your shower w/ newspaper beneath you). While you're massaging in the grounds, most will fall to the floor. The residue is what remains, and this should be wrapped (she didn't specify, but I assume any old plastic food wrap will do). Leave on for 5-10 minutes to detoxify and smooth. Rinse off with warm water and a loofah or vegetable brush". I tried this, and after one session, I swear my skin felt taught the rest of the day. Brilliant! If you haven't gotten this book yet, what are you waiting for?!? It's the best book of beauty/diet tips I've seen yet.
