In aid of the Marie Keating Foundation.......

At last, a make-up book that focuses on the needs of ordinary women instead of demonstrating on flawless models we simply can't compete with. Look Good Feel Good focuses on six ordinary women with extraordinary stories and shows how make up transformed their looks and self esteem.

The book is designed in an easy to understand format and includes two main sections entitled Know the Basics and Learn the Secrets. It also has a dedicated chapter relating to skin, nail and wig care – Beauty during and after Cancer Treatment.

It covers many of the day to day makeup problems encountered by women, such as deciding which makeup brushes to buy, using the correct foundation, choosing the right eye shadow colours, step by step guides to creating daytime, evening and smokey eye looks. It also demonstrates some of the more technical artistry of makeup application, such as concealing scars, wrinkles and acne, caring for teenage skin, recreating eyebrows and eyelashes lost through chemotherapy, and makeup for looking younger.

Look Good Feel Good has been written and published by two of the Irelands leading figures in the Irish beauty industry Award Winning Professional Makeup Artist Rhona Cullinan and Derek O Kelly, director at the Irish Academy of Beauty. Forward is by Ronan Keating and proceeds from the sale of the book will be donated to the Marie Keating Foundation. Photos by Beta Bajgartova.
