Reviews'Christopher shows women how to reveal that amazing inner beauty with techniques you can actually do yourselves." --Mark Montano, Host of TLC's Ten Years Younger , Christopher shows women how to reveal that amazing inner beauty with techniques you can actually do yourselves." -- Mark Montano , Host of TLC's Ten Years Younger, Hopkins, known as the Makeover Guy and owner of reVamp! salonspa in Minneapolis, balances encouragement and blunt honesty in this beauty guide. He stresses the importance of remaining current (not trendy) and age-appropriate, beginning with a chapter on 'Expressing the Authentic You.' Hopkins pays special attention to issues associated with aging, such as wrinkles, thinning and graying hair, and 'Working with a Second-Act Body.' Much of the advice feels old-fashioned, though in a good way. For example, he advocates foundation garments and steers readers away from showing their midriffs or too much cleavage. While Hopkins advises readers on ways to use hair care and makeup to their advantage, he doesn't shy away from cosmetic surgery. There should be demand for his guide, as it follows Charla Krupp's best-selling How Not To Look Old . Recommended for larger public libraries or for those where beauty and fashion titles circulate widely.

Listen to Christopher and you'll look smashing right into your nineties--and feel wonderfully confident the whole way.' -- Leah Feldon , Author of Does This Make Me Look Fat? Hopkins, known as The Makeover Guy," explains fashion dos, don'ts and oh-no-she-didn'ts for women in the "second act" of their lives. A quiz helps the reader identify which of six "Image Profiles" suits her tastes ("Casual," "Romantic," "Innovative," etc.); clothes, hair and makeup tips follow accordingly. Hopkins is encouraging and helpful: he does not simply tell women to clean their closets of any unsuitable clothes. He provides a checklist of "what you'll need," a 10-step to-do list and a questionnaire to determine which clothes to keep and which to toss. Benefiting from this book requires a certain amount of dedication--this is no quick-fix beauty mag article. There is even a "revival guide" journal in the back where readers can mark down outfits that worked or didn't work, collect contact information on their personal "beauty team" and keep track of daily, weekly and monthly beauty tasks. ... But his appearances on Oprah, the book's attention to detail and some astounding before-and-after photos attest to Hopkins's expertise.

Listen well!
This book covers so many areas! I find myself thinking after reading, feeling like I have been very posively instructed in how and why for each topic. Body shapes and the clothing angles and features that flatter; types of skin and foundations (and tips & tricks to soften lines ), every area even shoes are pure jewels of wisdom in this book. I have been mining it for a couple of days and keep unearthing new ideas and Ahas! I recommed this book to anyone who wants to transform and update themselves after 45. You do need a sense of curiosity and an open mind.. let the author talk to you!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

A must if you're an over 45 year old Woman!
I first rented this book in the library a few times, I loved it so much. Great book and the price for it was awesome! It's filled with great tips and ideas. From the style of clothing to colors, like avoiding dark red/burgundy lipstick colors on your lips, it causes the creases around them to be more noticeable, and even leaks into them. See, great tip! I'd buy it again if anything happened to my book, which arrived without a scratch and I often look things up before buying something new that I've never worn or used before (makeup). I highly recommend this if you're looking for a new fresh look and you're over 45 years of age, and of course, a woman. Be happy everyone!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

It’s like having a BFF in the psychology, fashion, makeup and hair salon business.
Christopher Hopkins really cares about his clients and it comes through in this book. One of my favorite phrases so far “Procrastination kills accomplishment and forces acceptance of the average”.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
