Just what I need! January 6, 2009
I love this book! It is written in a style that has you feeling like you are Christopher's friend and he is sharing his excellent advice with you. Beautiful photography, well-laid out pages, lots of visual examples, glossy paper makes it a joy to read. I need this for my "comeback" at my daughter's wedding in a few months when I need to look as good as possible so friends and family can see I have not only survived my divorce but look (hopefully) almost as good as the ex's new, younger wife.

I love this book. I hate beauty books as a rule -as they are usually generated for women who aren't using anti-wrinkle creams yet. But this book is different, its not telling us to look younger, its helping us look the best we can now--today---at the age of 40+. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who cares to look fabulous as themselves!
Great book for us premenopausal women December 26, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really enjoyed this book. I am 47 and have always felt I dress fashionable, but recently have felt I need some pointers so I do not keep wearing the same look that might have looked good on me when I was 27, but needs some updating now that I am older. I loved this book, it was full of useful easy to understand instructions and advice for every woman. I also have curly, thick hair which is a challenge not to get frizzy, and as I have aged it seems my hair has gotten dryer.Christopher Hopkins did not forget us curly hair ladies. He had a chapter devoted to "Managing Curl" and gave us curly hair ladies some very good advise. The format of the book is excellent. Great photos and cute comments from Christopher throughout the book that make you feel like he is your buddy telling your some scoop that might be helpful. I recommend you buy this book and refer to it constantly like I do.
Fun, Inspirational...The Real Deal! December 23, 2008
I began reading this book and had no idea it was for women over 45...but it made no difference because the information and story telling within the text are timeless. I am 28 years old and beginning to age, I found this book to be fantastic! I enjoyed looking at the transformations of the women in the book...Is that really her??!!! We can all relate to getting stuck in a rut, and this book will liberate you!
After reading this book I emailed Christopher Hopkins (The Author) with a thank you along with a few questions...and can you believe it??? Christopher Hopkins actually wrote me an email back answering my questions! He is the real deal, I can't wait for his next book! This is definitely a must read for any women. I would recommend it to any friend who wants to look her best, no matter what her age.
As Christopher Hopkins says..."Life is not a dress rehearsal!" I say...It's time to Begin staging YOUR comeback today!
 Brushes and Powder December 22, 2008

The author has placed a photo of brushes and powder on nearly every page, apparently to substitute for substantive text or for a photo of something else that relates to the text. My favorite chapter explained that women of a certain age shouldn't wear low-cut dresses that teenagers wear. It looks trashy. Duh. Since ordering this book, Amazon has sent me email ads for books for the elderly. I expect a Preparation H coupon any day now. Save your money for a day at the spa and a make-over at your local makeup counter. I wouldn't have given this book even one star, except that Amazon required it to submit my review.
