It’s about time! Carmindy, makeup artist to the stars, has finally unloaded all of her beauty knowledge onto the pages of her first book, The 5-Minute Face. I received a gratis copy a few months ago, but I’m ashamed to tell you I haven’t had a moment to crack it open until this past Monday. I really wish I’d read it sooner! I’m totally the type of girl that only wears a full makeup look when I’ve got an extra 30 minutes to spare before I leave the house (which is NEVER). She’s given me top tips to achieve the same look in five minutes flat. Life as I knew it, is forever changed. Three cheers for Carmindy!
Here’s a brief synopsis:
The steps for achieving the 5-minute face—from smoothing on foundation to slicking on lip color—are simple. In each chapter, Carmindy provides easy step-by-step instructions on perfecting the makeup technique that’s right for your face, including tips on how to decide which products fit your skin tone and how to apply them for optimal results. In addition to the 5-minute makeover, she discusses:
**How to Get Brows That Wow: Learn what brow shape best frames your face.
**What’s Age Got to Do with It?: Tricks and trade secrets that keep every woman looking beautiful, from teens to women aged fifty and over.
**Beauty Comes in All Colors: Freckles? Blemishes? Carmindy solves the problems that make finding the perfect makeup for your skin tone difficult.
**Building on the 5-Minute Face: Carmindy shows how to build on the basic face for special occasions, covering everything from sexy dates, to looking right in all-white at your wedding, to mastering hot trends like smoky eyes and metallics.
