When I bought this book, I was expecting your typical Beauty/Style/Self-Help book and would have been happy with just a few new tips I didn’t already know from years of reading women’s magazines. I was pleasantly surprised! The authors have created a comprehensive Cliff Notes version of a realistic life makeover that can result in a reader being healthier, happier and looking better than ever.
Instead of overloading you with complicated, overly detailed, impossible-to-follow instructions, Jacqueline and Jene have created an easy–to-read, encouraging package of advice--both from personal experience and from some of the noted experts who helped them. The upbeat, breezy style makes the book an easy read and it is laid out in such a way that it’s a cinch to reference later.
“Get It” cuts through the overwhelming amount of stuff out there about cosmetics, hair products, diets, dangerous ingredients, exercises, etc. and gives you the key info. Written in a girlfriend-to-girlfriend tone, Jacqueline and Jene let you in on what you need to be healthy (both mentally and physically), make the most of what you've got (with the lowdown on makeup, hair and skincare) and look great in clothes. They correctly assume that most of us aren’t model perfect and don’t have unlimited time and money to spend on ourselves and deal daily with figure woes like mommy tummy and back bulge. They cover how to make sure your bra fits properly and give advice on how to choose the right shapewear, jeans and styles for your body type. "Get It" gives you what you need for a total life makeover and no matter if you take advantage of all the advice and tips or just implement a few--you'll be better for it.
Finally I loved the quotes from people as diverse as Balzac, Thomas Edison and the man who brought us Winnie the Pooh to Reverend Run, Audrey Hepburn and Sophia Loren. (That’s a combo you’re not likely to find anywhere else!)
