Born Beautiful: The African American Teenager's Complete Beauty Guide

The look it's really good I remember my father purchased it for me back in high school and as an adult I can genuinely say that although it's an old book a lot of the information is timeless so you can still apply that today. It's a very good and informational book for a black teen or young adult who's just now trying to get involved in beauty related things. It information on the necessary tools skincare items and makeup to be successful

This book is an excellent resource. I'm using it for an overnight session with a rites of passage program. This book also makes a great gift. It addresses the beauty concerns of young ladies, while tastefully providing the appropriate level of advice on make-up, hair, and health.

My appearance-conscientious, 13-year-old daughter finds this book helpful and positive. With Essence and Right On! magazines as our usual source for beauty advice, I found this book to be a pleasant mixture of both as it is as informative as Essence magazine with age-appropriate concepts-like Right On! magazine. Buy it!

I bought this as a gift for one of my daughter's friends a year ago. She still thanks me and tells me how much she's been able to use it and how helpful it's been. She wants me to find something just like it for her birthday this year, too. There simply aren't enough books like this for black preteen and teenage girls. She has made a lot of changes not just in how she takes care of herself, but also in the way she views herself. She's become quite the confident young lady in the past year.
