Summary
Now, in an era when the face of beauty has changed--and the most celebrated women in Hollywood include such stars as Halle Berry, Jennifer Lopez, and Lucy Liu--supermodel Iman delivers a new approach to makeup and skin care. With this book, she revolutionizes the way women of color can think about the way they look and feel. Iman resists categorizing people according to ethnicity, and instead embraces the whole range of skin color--light to dark. This is the first beauty and makeup book to truly address skin tones across the spectrum--Latina, Black, Asian, Indian, Native American, Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, as well as women of mixed ethnicities. Iman teaches readers how to work with skin care regimens and palettes targeted to their exact skin tone and type.--From publisher description.
