If you're interested in make-up books, you've almost certainly come across this one. It contains some amazing pictures. I was actually asked to do a review of this and let you have a look inside... so this post is picture heavy.
Just like every other make-up book on the market, this one also covers the basics: the essentials, brushes, prepping. Nothing new here.
I like the section on eyelashes. Using the same model and make-up, she applies different eyelashes (natural, lux, high impact) to show you how they can change your eyes. In fact, a lot of the looks in this book rely on eyelashes for that extra wow factor.
Many of the looks are dramatic. She uses pigments, glitter, sticky tape, diamond dust, liquid eye paint, gold leaves... items that a beginner or a "normal" person does not usually have in their make-up kit, so beware.
The good thing is, it does have step-by-step guides on how to achieve each of the looks.
Highlighting: this is also a great chapter.
Typical Rae Morris... red lips with a twist: purple added to the top, gold on the bottom.
Some of the more natural looks....
But for beginners, I think there are 'friendlier' books out there that concentrate on more down-to-earth looks (that you can't go wrong with!). Like Jemma Kidd's Make-up Masterclass or any of Bobbi Brown's books.Source URL: http://violeta-diario.blogspot.com/2010/11/rae-morris-makeup-ultimate-guide-see.html
