Giveaway - Bobbi Brown Living Beauty - Bobbi Brown with Marie Clare Katigback

Okay! I am very excited to be hosting a giveaway for 5!! copies of Bobbi Brown Living Beauty, courtesy of the Hachette Book Group. Why am I so excited? Living Beauty is geared towards women 40+. (that's me!)

Synopsis from the publisher:

"Bobbi Brown began the trend toward natural-looking cosmetics with a simple philosophy: Women want to look and feel like themselves, only prettier and more confident. Today, top editors at elite fashion magazines--including In Style, Vogue, Allure, and Harpers Bazaar--revere her, and celebrities and millions of regular women throughout the world swear by her beauty advice. Now Bobbi Brown has written THE book redefining beauty for women over 40, BOBBI BROWN LIVING BEAUTY. In this refreshing look at beauty and aging, Bobbi offers specific makeup tricks for a stunning face--showing how makeup can solve most of the flaws that many women go under the knife to fix. In fact, the right makeup can create an even skin tone, lift the cheeks, plump a smile...even take years off any woman's face. The key is to use makeup to enhance each woman's best features and showcase her natural beauty. With step-by-step makeup instructions and quotes from beautiful women like Marcia Gay Harden, Vera Wang, Susan Sarandon, and Lorraine Bracco, Bobbi Browns natural, celebratory approach to aging will enlighten and inspire women everywhere. "

You can read an excerpt here.

This giveaway is a bit different as I haven't had a chance to read and review it myself yet. I'm would love it if the winners would send their thoughts along once they've read it and I'll include those with my review. So leave a comment to be entered, open to both US and Canada, no PO boxes please. Giveaway runs until Friday May 1 at 6 pm EST. And for those of you who read all the way to the end, check out my other Boomer Beauty giveaway here
