Product Description
Cotton Rich Pillowcase

From Publishers Weekly
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. Hopkins’s constant self-marketing can get annoying: irrelevant photos of himself litter the pages, and he wastes space touting his fashion victories over difficult clients. But his appearances on Oprah, the book’s attention to detail and some astounding before-and-after photos attest to Hopkins’s expertise. (May)

From Publishers Weekly
The author of the bestselling Anam Cara hits a lyrical mark again with this book that boldly takes up an eternal verity and ideal—beauty. O’Donohue’s premise is urgent and sweeping: “Politics, religion, and economics and the institutions of family and community all have become abruptly unsure. At first, it sounds completely naive to suggest that now might be the time to awaken and invoke beauty. Yet this is exactly the claim that this book explores.” And so the author, who has a background in philosophy and has written about Hegel, seeks “intimations” and manifestations of beauty, finding it in music, color and movement, as well as some less likely locations—imperfection and death. Beauty is sensuous and present, but it is also always pointing to the transcendent. Its trail leads to the recognition of God, with O’Donohue quoting the novelist Dostoyevski—”Perhaps it is beauty that will save us in the end”—as well as medieval Christian mystic Meister Eckhart, whose thought he weaves through the book. O’Donohue writes like the poet he is (“Memory is the place where our vanished days secretly gather”), and he generously quotes from other poets across cultures and times. He also liberally draws into his circle of imagination the great philosophers of beauty, from Plato and Aquinas to contemporary German philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer. The resulting book is a lively and informed discussion among great minds—a digest of provocative views on an inexhaustible and compelling topic. This refreshing book falls like rain on the parched plain of contemporary discourse.

About the Brand

Mally Roncal, creator of Mally Beauty

Celebrity makeup artist Mally Roncal has moved to the top of the “it” list of “who’s who” in the beauty industry, becoming one of the industry’s most dynamic and in-demand talents. Mally has a natural ability to make her clients not only look beautiful, but feel beautiful. This has made her a favorite among a versatile group of music industry heavyweights and actors including; Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Thalia, and Ashlee Simpson. Magazines such as Allure, Marie Claire, InStyle, and Lucky have all turned to Mally for her flawless makeup technique, incredible beauty tips, and witty copy.

Her beauty philosophy emphasizes healthy, breathable skin that looks flawless and dewy. According to Mally, “Makeup is simply the accessory that allows someone’s true nature and beauty to outwardly manifest itself.”

As a young girl, Mally began experimenting with color and makeup on her mother–also an incredible beauty–who undoubtedly served as her inspiration. Motivated by her parents, both doctors, she pursued a pre-med education yet never abandoned her inner passion for art, makeup, and fashion. Luckily, with encouragement and inspiration from mentors, including her fashion stylist team Mathu and Zaldy and celebrity hair stylist Danilo, whom she met while designing for Kalinka, Mally soon put aside her pre-med education to pursue her ultimate desire–the power of makeup.

The Middletown, New York native launched her Mally Beauty line of cosmetics in 2005.

Product Description
Rona Berg knows that sometimes women have dry skin. Or tired eyes. Or limp hair. Or a pimple. And as a beauty expert, she knows exactly what to do about it. Drawing on years of covering the beauty industry, working behind the scenes at fashion shows, fixing actresses’ and models’ beauty meltdowns, and learning insider information from hundreds of consultants and make-up artists, Ms. Berg—author of Beauty: The New Basics, with 122,000 copies in print—offers up the best 1,000 tried-and-true tips.

Indexed by problem and solution, Fast Beauty is indispensable, filled with the kinds of advice, ideas, and help that sell millions of women’s magazines a month. Spa tips. Anti-stress tips. The “20-second face,” “the two-minute face,” the “five-minute face.” Innovative remedies: Rub olive oil into dry cuticles to soften them; use honey to get rid of a pimple overnight; to tighten the face temporarily, apply tomato juice (preferably fresh-squeezed) for ten minutes, and for the reverse—if your face is tight from too much sun—apply plain yogurt to the skin and leave on for ten minutes. A full chapter shows how to solve beauty pitfalls caused by hormones at all stages of life; another deals with various problems caused by working out. And for every busy businesswoman, it tells what quick fix to use when heading into an important meeting straight off the red-eye—or heading straight from the office out on a blind date.
