Staging Your Comeback by Christopher Hopkins (2008, Paperback)

Great book. Very down-to-earth. He really helps the reader know who she is and what will look best on her. My only qualm that would be he didn't give pictures of hair to try to of specific outfits--but that could be the times too. He does a great job of getting the points across.

This is a very informative guide to how to look great after 45. It is written
with humor and good advice. Lots of pictures, before and after makeovers etc. I enjoyed it.

this is one the best books that I've read as far as changing or improving your appearance. It's a down to earth approach. You don't have to go out and spend a fortune to look great ! We all need a little shove to update our hair, clothes and makeup from the way we did it 20 or (heaven forbid ) 30 years ago !Love Christopher's view on growing older !

I've followed some of the tips in this book and am happy to say that I've received compliments based on them.

The book was very entertaining and fun to read. I shared it with others and we had lots of fun reading it.

Own one already, got this one for someone else. This book makes more sense thatn any other ones on makeovers. The pictures of before and after are amazing! Hope it works as well for me.

I bought this book as a boost for my 55 year old sister who recently lost some weight. However as I thumbed through it, I realized that I needed this book too. The dramatic makeover pictures of various women with different facial features, hair, and body types are enough for most women to realize, this man knows his stuff! Christopher busts common myths that have actually kept women from looking their best. The tips and techniques are fine tuned and easy to follow. Women are encouraged to find their own personal style and work with it in a way that works as they age. I found this book at age 50 but wish I had this information when I turned 40. I highly recommend it for women 40+ who want to look their best!

Enjoyed the book. Easy to follow and plesantmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I was hoping for detailed instructions/ideas on make-up changes, clothing purchases, styles to look for..... This book contains a lot of self-help passages and encouragement...I wanted the nuts and bolts.
