A new book called Makeup Wakeup promises to help women over 40 solve “the kinds of issues women face every day.” Written by Lancome Beauty at Every Age Expert Sandy Linter and Lois Joy Johnson, Makeup Wakeup includes:

• Celebrity beauty tips
• Tips for dealing with “brow abuse” and sun damage
• A “fail-proof” shopping guide for beauty products
• Expert advice on cosmetic procedures

The authors of Makeup Wakeup say they wrote the book for women over the age of 40 who feel invisible within the sea of beauty marketing aimed at much younger women.

Reviews for Makeup Wakeup

Makeup Wakeup is “full of sharp advice” according to Oprah.com.

The blog faboverforty.com writes about Makeup Wakeup: “One of the first things I noticed about the book is the great photography. These women are not photoshopped to look glossed over and fake. Nope, they look REAL! I was so thrilled about that!”

A reviewer on Amazon writes: “I think people considering surgical enhancements should read this book and see if they could ‘fix’ what they want to fix using make-up or read up on the different offerings of procedures. This was a very worthwhile and fun read for me.”

At the Book Release Party

Last month, the authors celebrated the debut of Makeup Wakeup at a special book release party at Bergdorf Goodman in NYC. Talkingmakeup.com has photos of attendees, including Debbie Harry of Blondie and model/actress Patti Hansen.
