Allure Confessions of a beauty editor

Written by Linda Wells, the magazine strove to cover aspects of beauty.
Starting my life in the professional world, I needed some professional advice and since this glossy magazine reigned the world of fashion, I tried it out. It was definitely interesting to see the techniques to maintain hair, skin, body, nails separately and it was even more interesting to see the techniques to apply makeup and maintain the equipments. I have to sincerely admit that I don’t remember anything that I read, since none of them were actually doable for a person like me who gets up 10 minute before leaving to work in the morning and one who is not really interested in constantly touching up. I think I’m one of those people who thrive in natural beauty, yet with scars of adolescence, I can only depend on cosmetics to help me with the ‘beauty’.
I think discovering what will suit you and what will be good is a journey that everyone has to go by themselves and reading books aren’t really the best ways for all of us out there. Yet, this book was very elaborate and covered many aspects which might be useful to others, who might gain more by reading others’ experiences.
