Books on Make-up and Beauty…Must Have!! And Wish list…..

BOOKS........BOOK....and More BOOKS.

The world of Makeup and Beauty is ever changing, like the in the world of Fashion, Looks and Styles depend on Seasons and the Winds, but the basics stay the same.
Books are one of the ways I keep up with my Knowledge.

There are so many Makeup and Beauty books out there.
So what do we choose?
I have compiled a list of books that I found useful at one point or another in my career, some are references others are inspirational.....there are many more out there....so this list is by no mean complete.

No.... I do not own all of them, but they are on my wish list.
I am looking to create my very own Beauty Library.
