Make Up

Make Up by Michelle Phan

Summary: Michelle Phan has believed in makeup since the first time she was allowed to try eyeliner. When she looked in the mirror and saw a transformed version of herself looking back, she fell in love with the sense of confidence that makeup could give her.  Ever since she posted her first makeup tutorial on YouTube, she has dedicated herself to inspire millions by using makeup as a tool for transformation and self expression.  Now, Michelle has compiled all of her best wisdom into Make Up: Your Life Guide to Beauty, Style, and Success--Online and Off. From creating a gorgeous smoky eye to understanding contouring to developing an online persona, Michelle has advice to help you transform every facet of your life. Make Up is packed with Michelle’s trademark beauty and style tutorials,  stories and pictures from her own life, and advice on the topics she is asked about most, including etiquette, career, entrepreneurship, and creativity. From the everyday (such as how to get glowing skin) to the big picture (such as how to turn your passion into a profession), Make Up is a practical and empowering resource to help anyone put their best face forward. Angie's Comments: Make Up is more than just about makeup. The first two chapters are about Michelle Phan’s life, which made for some interesting reading. Other chapters include “Digital Dos and Don’ts” and “Modern Manners Made Easy”. Of course, there is a chapter about entrepreneurship, which is what Michelle does. This book looks at everything about people: makeup, style, manners, and career. The makeup tips are basic and great for those who aren’t very familiar with makeup (me included!). This would be a great book for teenagers and even tweens, as it gives solid advice and a role model in Michelle. Request this item
