One book that I've finished recently is a book that I was
sent to review and I really enjoyed it. It was a book called The Beauty Chronicles - Sensorial Secrets
for Redefining Human Perfection by Tina Parsons.
Tina is the founder and principal of the award winning
Burghley Academy training school in Peterborough, England. At the academy
training school and salon, they teach practical beauty and holistic therapy
training courses. So Ms. Parsons is a very experienced and knowledgeable
professional in the field of beauty.
What I like about the book is that it gives you an
interesting insight into what beauty is and takes you on a journey for the
senses. The pages are packed with knowledge and yet you don't feel overwhelmed
by all of the information. It's like a history lesson of beauty at some points
as it highlights such beauty industry luminaries as Coco Chanel and Max Factor.
It's fascinating to find out more about the people behind these iconic names
that many of us know. This book is a complete approach to the science of beauty
and not solely about beauty from a basic visual standpoint...it gives you more than
that. The thing that I love most is that everything is explained very well and
is presented in an easygoing style.
The book is broken down into sections: Perception, Sight,
Touch, Smell, Taste, and Sound. And within each section there are headings such
as: 'The Science of the Senses', 'What is Beauty?', 'Walk the Walk and Talk the
Talk', 'The Emotional Eye', and 'The Tongue Tells the Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth', just to name a
few. There are numerous tips provided throughout the book that not only can
help with your appearance, but they are also good healthy tips!
Tina Parson's book is a good read and it's an interesting
read for anyone interested in the subject of beauty or anyone who just enjoys a
good book! It's one of those books that you can refer to over and over again.
