I was disappointed in the color swatches illustrated in the book and not the colors one would expect. They appear to have been produced by using crayons which makes it somewhat difficult to match shades. Some colors that are listed for the different seasons I would consider to be a departure from the books written by Carole Jackson. I read more about the new seasonal concept but what I really wanted is to have color swatches that are as close as possible to the actual colors for my season. I need to be able to use the swatches when shopping and experimenting. The information in the book, aside from the colors, was helpful and contained some good insight into the seasonal methodology which I firmly believe in and have since 1984. I would have preferred to purchase a book from Carole Jackson writing an updated version of her "Color Me Beautiful Makeup Guide" but I understand that she is no longer a part of "Color Me Beautiful." Overall, the book was good but could have been much better.Read full review
Okay. Back when this was so popular, my life revolved around work, my family and not a lot of time for me. Finally, I'm retired and now it's my turn. So I decided to do a "Me Makeover," for the second half of my life and vowed to take time for me and get myself "together!" If you're new to this color "thing" this is the book to have. It breaks down and explains the system and if you're still not sure of your "season," don't worry, this book takes it a step further . . . For once - - I know . . . I get it . . . I understand . . . . and it makes sense. And you know the system works after your husband says, "Honey, you look great today - - like you got a good night's sleep." I mean, do they notice anything? So, for not a lot of money, I found my season, know my best colors, sorted out my closet, found my clothing style and what looks best for my figure. Winner - Winner Chicken Dinner!Read full review

The price was very reasonable. Book condition was as described. The basic information I wanted on color season is covered and good advice on dressing for body shape. This was published in 80s so styles are not up to date but still is very useful!

I have always loved this book. Actually I orderd this book by accident cause I already have a copy. Thats OK cause the book never will go out of style. I have been interested in color analsyst for a long time. It's true if you wear your best colors you feel better and you really do get lots of complements.
