Sinopsis
For women everywhere of any age, here is the biggest, most thorough, tried-and-true survey of consumer-tested cosmetic products ever carried out, anywhere in the world.
More than 600 women have spoken: they’ve tested literally thousands of products—over 100 brands, across 32 categories—and have delivered a bona fide shortlist of the most effective and best-value buys. These are the secrets every busy female needs to know, the definitive illustrated guide to fast-track beauty. Which are the real miracle creams, the cellulite treatments that aren’t just hype, the nail polishes that won’t chip in 5 minutes, the tanning creams that don’t turn skin orange? Find out how to achieve maximum results in minimum time, and get insider knowledge of hair cut and color, choosing the perfect fragrance, working out an ideal skincare regime, or applying makeup for day or night. Take a look at the latest state-of-the-art, high-tech options: teeth whitening, non-surgical facelifts, Botox, and collagen. Or choose a holistic approach, with recipes for easy treatments to make at home. And from the experts: the products that international beauty editors can’t do without.

From Publishers Weekly
This invaluable resource for makeup counter regulars includes the results of what is perhaps the most comprehensive survey of cosmetics available. Stacey and Fairley (The Beauty Bible) arranged for 1,180 women to test thousands of beauty products from 32 categories, including eye shadow, lipstick, makeup remover, acne medication, face masks, teeth whiteners and more. Essentially a product review guide (without pesky advertisements), the book lists the items in each category that received top ratings, as well as the best budget buys. Each product gets a score on a scale of one to 10, averaged from the testers' responses. The authors also include illuminating quotes from the testers about the pros and cons of each item, be it mascara that visibly thickens lashes or cellulite cream that just doesn't work. In between the score sheets is a series of mini articles that, for beauty mavens, will be worth the price of the book alone; they offer tips on coloring hair, making lips look more full, and plucking eyebrows into the perfect arch, among other things. The advice in these pages is more specific than anything readers will find in women's magazines, making this book the ultimate unbiased guide for the woman who's willing to take a few minutes to read up on nail polish if it'll tell her which brand won't chip after a day.
