I took this book out of the library to preview. The author is terrific and he doesn't skimp on any advice. I'll buy it this time.

Over 40 Magic! October 15, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

When it comes to clothing and make-up, we tend to fall into particular patterns by our mid-twenties. We've decided which clothes look best on us and we've perfected our hair and make-up. We know what works and we stick to it. And that is precisely the problem. We go through our thirties and well into our forties, failing to notice that our appearance has changed in subtle -- and not so subtle ways. What once worked simply doesn't anymore. Fear not, for help is on the way!br /br /Having consulted with the likes of Lauren Holly, Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Robert Wagner, and Stephanie Powers, among others, Christopher Hopkins brings his dramatic makeover techniques to you in his book, "Staging Your Comeback: A Complete Beauty Revival for Women Over 45." br /br /Christopher, known to millions of his fans as, "The Makeover Guy," works his magic, from hair and make-up to a customized wardrobe, helping you to find your own unique style... without spending thousands of dollars. You'll learn the mistakes common to women over 45 and how to avoid them.br /br / Excerpt:br / "We have been programmed to believe that something outside our control is responsible for how we look: genetics, aging, time. But now more than ever, we have the power to change and improve what Mother Nature handed us and continues to hand us. Anyone can look, feel, and live better than ever before. Opportunities for a new love, a new career, and a new life are literally at our fingertips. Who would have imagined that Raquel Welch would become the face of MAC cosmetics at age sixty-six, or that a first-time mother would birth twins at age sixty-seven? What was once unheard of is now common, and what was once accepted now seems archaic. For women today, anything is possible. By preparing yourself for the part, you can create the scene, however you want it played. You're the star in your own show. It's your turn."br /br /

Great Book October 8, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is just a great book. I found it at a time in my life when I really needed some help. Christopher has a unique way of writing that makes you feel as though he is sitting right next to you while you're reading, he really cares about you and he's not afraid to tell you exactly what he thinks. We all should have a friend like that, and that's what I feel I've gained with this experience, a new friend. He gives you information and a plan to carry it through, not just makeup and hair, but your total self, right down to cleaning out your closet and your makeup bag. He encourages you to eat right and get moving, stand up straight and be proud of who you are. This book is a must for anyone who wants to age gracefully and look good doing it.

ORDER THIS BOOK RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!! It's excellent! Around 55 I couldn't figure out how to dress my changing body, much less what to do with my thinning hair and forget the makeup...everything at the cosmetic counter was geared for a dewy 20 something. Now I know how to dress for my shape and what kind of makeup to use so I don't look like a circus clown. I'm starting to feel better about myself. Aging gracefully is just a matter of changing our outdated ways and this book outlines in detail new techniques for us old broads. br /br /
