Knowing this is out of print, I love this book & would buy it again on ebay if I lost it. SK is a genius as using a few products for maximum result, and this book & CD are lovely reminders that...

Beautiful pages & pictures. Good information & tips. Even though I knew a lot already, I still learned a few things. And the DVD was a nice extra :) (Copyright 2003)

Sonia gives a decent introduction to the confusing world of makeup and beauty in this book, but doesn't go into any real depth. Like Craxfactor said, all the models already have relatively flawless...

This is a very basic "user's manual" for makeup application and color selection. The killer app here is the DVD. Sonia is down to earth, upbeat and instructive. She uses her fingers. It's a...

This was a steal-$2 at a store closing. However, if I'd paid full price, I'd be disappointed. I KNOW I AM IN THE MINORITY HERE. However, I didn't learn anything I didn't know before about makeup...

I collect make-up books and "Real beauty" is one of my favourites. It's an excellent book/dvd combination and Sonia's makeup is real in any way. She goes step by step on how to apply concealer,...

I just checked this out from my public library [woohoo!] and it was very informative. SK is laid-back but thorough. The DVD was great too, it was more "realistic" having shown the models sans...
