Customer Review: Good tips!
I bought this dvd to show to my girls so they could learn how to apply makeup after seeing one of my daughters walk out of the bathroom one day with eyeshadow above her eyebrows. It was a great buy and we learned a lot from the dvd. Catherine Hickman keeps it really simple and uses the same technique over and over so you can see what you should do. My girls loved it and so did I. We were inspired to get on to Catherine Hickman's website, www.catcosmetics.com, and order some of her products. The products were excellent quality and beautiful colors and we are going to buy more. She had so many great makeup tips and we felt we could use all the information in the dvd. She really taught us how to wear makeup without looking like we have a mask on. She had a great tip for me, the mom on the go who has no time to apply makeup, and now I am able to pull myself together and look pretty even though I have no time. She was practical and told us that we could get away with buying cheap makeup but to splurge on good brushes- the key being to blend the makeup so it looks natural. My favorite part of the video is the introduction when she walks up to the camera and she has no makeup on! Kudos to her for being honest and making glamor accessable to the average Jane.
