7 Years Younger Instant Makeovers Book Review

June 27, 2014

I think I’ve found a book that every woman needs!!  It’s the brand new 7 Years Younger Instant Makeovers book from Woman’s Day.  I was fortunate to receive a copy for review.  I’m telling you that this is one that you will read and re-read over and over because it’s filled with so much advice that is relevant to everyone, especially to us ladies looking for the fountain of youth.


This book is authored by the Editors of Woman’s Day.  The book is designed to show women that there are simple techniques that can be used to transform their current look for a younger looking appearance.  The book includes over 100 mini makeovers and great affordable anti-aging advice.  There are tips that are referred to as “fast fixes” as well as “fix it so it lasts” tips, which refers to more long term solutions.

I love that the book recommends the most inexpensive drugstore products as well as high end products. Some tips may not require any products at all.  It may be something as simple as changing the part in your hair that will achieve a younger looking you.  The book teaches you how to work with what you have to make over your look as well as your life, from makeup application to diet to sleep.

Below are before and after pictures of my eye makeup using some of the tips in this book.  I chose to line the upper lids with black liner (still a favorite of mine).  I used the Avon Supershock gel liner.  I used a shadow base (MAC paint pot in Nubile).  I then applied a shimmery shadow (MAC All that Glitters).  I followed with a few coats of mascara.  All of these combined to help to open the eye and make the lashes look thicker.  I think you can see in the pictures too that my skin looks brighter and more even.  I achieved this with Pond’s Luminous Finish BB cream.  I didn’t use any corrector or concealer.  This helps to soften the lines around my eyes and make them appear less visible.

You can purchase a copy of this book at their website.  I’m a huge fan of this book and will be incorporating some of the tips and tricks that I’ve learned into future blog posts as well as into my videos.
