Lauren Conrad Beauty Book

Lauren Conrad is probably best known for starring in the MTV hit series The Hills, but she is also a No1 New York Times best selling author.  She is the author of the hit teen series 'LA Candy', fashion book 'Style’ and has this month released a new book called ‘Beauty’*.  
This is her first guide dedicated exclusively to beauty - it is quite a large hardback book consisting of 276 glossy pages filled with information, tips and tricks to look your best.
The book deals with beauty inside and out, featuring chapters on nutrition and exercise to nail art and hair styling.
The book has nice detailed tutorials with pictures for you to follow.
I particularly like the section on party hair as I am growing my hair and recently bought some clip in extensions for when I go out in the evening so I have picked up some great tips from here!
I also really like the chapters on nutrition and exercise, she explains how it is essential to take care of your body on the inside to look your best on the outside.

I would say that this book is probably aimed at the teenage/young adult market as it covers a lot of basics about make-up and how to look after your skin.  I did pick up quite a few tips from reading it though, her tutorials are easy to follow and clear to read.

I think this would make a brilliant Christmas present as it would be one of those books you keep flicking through and picking up tips!

Beauty retails for £8.24 on Amazon.

  2. I normally don't really like her (I'm not that partial to reality TV stars in general) but this looks beautifully put together - and I can't fault her, she always has flawless hair that leaves me feeling very jealous!

  4. I was looking at this and couldn't decide between this and one of the Bobbi Brown books but I like the idea of hair and make up in one book

  12. Hi Jo,

    Thanks for linking me to your blog earlier-it's lovely and I'm now following you. I love Lauren Conrad-I thought she was a bit annoying on The Hills but she has impeccable style. My sister bought that book so I've had a good look through it and I think it's very good! Load of great tips and tricks.
