I really enjoyed reading this book. It was interesting, witty, and well written. I enjoyed it very much even though it did contain much information I had read before in other sources, and it was aimed toward women of middle age, and I am way-way-way past middle age. Another plus--the book arrived promptly.
 Definitely worth the price! July 17, 2008

I have been having so much fun with this book! I especially appreciate the very specific tools he presents here for determining your body type, proportions, and what clothing types are most flattering to you, rather than vague generalities found in many other style/beauty books. Mr. Hopkins' approach is not so much to teach you to hide signs of aging or try to hide your age, but to look your best at your true age, and emphasize your best features, which even those of us who are 45 and over still have, darn it! This is an important distinction, in my opinion, and sets his book apart from others aimed at older women, particularly Ms. Krupp's "How Not To Look Old" , which just comes across as desperate to me. Leg makeup and botox? No thanks!
Since I bought this book, I've purged my cosmetics drawer and my closet, gotten professional advice on a new skin care regimen and makeup application, and am looking for a new hair stylist.
I do agree with another poster who said that tailoring some of the fashion advice to specific body types would be helpful if there are future editions/updates. Overall, there is no other beauty/style book out there like this one, and I heartily recommend it.
Most Valuable Book For Those Over 45! July 16, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
From the minute you open this book, you will be so glad you did. It will transform your thinking about yourself, your clothes and makeup. After a few days of using this book, I have gotten rave reviews and everyone seems to notice! This is a must have book. His methods take very little effort- making a few changes in dress and makeup make all the difference.
Buy it! You will be transformed while remaining you.
Beauty over 45 Made Easy July 14, 2008

Christopher Hopkins book is the best beauty book I've ever read. He talks to women over 45 and inspires you and more importantly teaches you in clear, easy ways how to look younger and to be the best you can be. Christopher breaks down each part of your appearance and shows you how to find your body type, your personality type and then how to make changes that make you look and feel better. He used women from his area for the makeovers and he made them look so much better that if you mixed up the before and after photos, you would have trouble matching many of them.
I used the book and changed how I wore the clothes I already own to make them work better for me and immediately began getting compliments on my appearance. Makeup has always been confusing for me, but he makes it simple and shows you exactly what to buy and how to apply it. I have followed his advice and now wear foundation for the first time in my life and love it. I think every woman over 45 who is ready to feel new, refreshed, and younger should read this book!
Great tips! June 20, 2008

I'm way too young for this book (got it for my mom), but it actually had great makeup and fashion tips for us both. It also inspired me to dress "young" while I still can! :)
