UPDATE: 11/23 Reread this and still love it so much. It makes me forget there are other makeup books. The eyebrow section was eye-opening for me! (Quite literally.) I truly loved it!
Definitely not entry-level stuff. You'll fully appreciate this if you're adept at makeup and are just looking for short cuts. I recommend The Ultimate Guide then this one if you're not very experienced. This is a short and sweat book for shorter sweatier makeup routines.
I thought the book had really good pointers. I love the color chart suggestion for different eye colors. I enjoyed the step by step pictures. This book isn't for beginners or advanced aspiring MUAs. I would say it's for intermediate level.
Compared with her first book, this one is still good but no where near as great. I found it quite similar to her first book but less insightful. If you want a makeup book that is an all round brilliant and helpful read, then 'The Ultimate Guide' is better.
I did love the book, because it did have so many make up looks and styles, and utilized different aged models, with different ethnicities. However, I thought that some of the looks needed a little more explanation or detail.
