 HUGE FAN OF "JOAN COLLINS" |
| Review Date: August 5, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Earline Taylor, |
I ENJOY READING ABOUT JOAN COLLINS AND HAVE ENJOYED MANY OF HER BOOKS. I FOR ONE DO NOT THINK THAT TAKING CARE OF ONE'S BEAUTY IS SUPERFICIAL UNLESS IT LITERALLY CONSUMES ONES LIFE. THE ONLY THING I HAVE AGAINST CELEBRITIES WHO WRITE BEAUTY AND EXERCISE BOOKS IS SOME OF THESE PEOPLE PROMOTE SOMETHING THAT THEY DIDN'T ACHEIVE NATURALLY. WHAT I MEAN IS, I AM ALL FOR SKIN CARE AND EXERCISE AND PROPER DIET TO PROMOTE YOUTH, BEAUTY AND HEALTH. I AM NOT FOR GOING "UNDER THE KNIFE" OR HAVING COSMETIC PROCEDURES DONE, THEN WRITING BEAUTY AND EXERCISE BOOKS UNDER THE PRETENSE THAT THEIR APPEARANCE WAS ACHEIVED BY "HARD WORK."
I DON'T THINK IT IS FAIR TO THE CONSUMER. IT SELLS FALSE HOPE AND ILLUSIONS. HOWEVER, I DO BELIEVE BOOKS SUCH AS THESE DO HAVE THEIR PLACE. I JUST DON'T THINK ANYONE SHOULD BASE WHAT THEY WANT TO LOOK LIKE ON WHAT THEY GET OUT OF A BEAUTY BOOK. I THINK IT IS BEST TO JUST TAKE WHAT CAN BE USED AND DISCARD THE REST. I WILL CONTINUE TO BUY MS. COLLINS BEAUTY BOOKS AS LONG AS I BELIEVE WHAT SHE HAS WRITTEN. |
Beware!

One should never reveal the secrets of friends!
As Joan will soon find out! Apparently Joanna Lumley & Jerry Hall are very upset with her and are waiting in the shadows and lurking for the perfect opportunity to deliver a Linda Evans-style smack down on Joan! |
How to stay a goddess after forty
|
| Review Date: January 26, 2004 |
| Reviewer: Carol H., Switzerland |
| In general, this book is a fast page-turner. Joan Collins has gone a long way to prove how attractive women over forty can be in other books and, as if it wasn't enough, she makes her point again with friends rallying for support. This book is written in a very colloquial style which makes us privy to Joan Collins' intimate chats with her friends about beauty, fitness, life and love. It is a privilege to have the likes of Stefanie Powers, Shirley MacLaine, Ali Mc Graw, Morgan Fairchild, Shirley Bassey, Barbara Taylor Bradford, Shakira Caine or Angie Dickinson handing down to us the experience of a lifetime in the limelight. Yet, the most naive readers should beware of certain oddities like Ivana Trump's gobbling up over six eggs a day, Shirley MacLaine's fasting for over six days on apple juice or Jacqueline Bisset's phobia of fans kisses for fear of bacteria transmission. Despite which, the book is a winner. |
