Now it's your turn. Using Christopher's step-by-step strategies and detailed advice, you will learn to:
- Restore your hair with your ideal cut, color, and style
- Revamp your wardrobe to flatter a changing body
- Refresh your face with "visible lift" makeup techniques
- Renew your spirit and maintain your look using Christopher's revival guide

How can you have a rich and fulfilling life? The choices you make, not your income or financial assets, are the most powerful determining factor for your quality of life. Women have never had so many options. Yet we often experience a kind of paralysis, an unconscious willingness to follow societal dictates rather than become the CEOs of our own lives. When we mindlessly follow the dots, we smother our innate gifts and miss opportunities to fulfill our true potential.

Behind the curtain of her happy on-screen persona, Valerie Bertinelli’s life has been no easy ride, especially when it comes to her own self-image and self-worth.

She struggled to make her marriage to Eddie Van Halen—the true love of her life—work, despite all the rifts the rock-star lifestyle created between them.

Today's young women face a bewildering set of contradictions when it comes to beauty. They don't want to be Barbie dolls but, like generations of women before them, are told they must look like them. They're angry about the media's treatment of women but hungrily consume the very outlets that belittle them. They understand that what they see isn't real but still download apps to airbrush their selfies.

Story
While working together at a Los Angeles boutique, Pamela Skaist-Levy and Gela Nash-Taylor became fast and furious friends over the impossibility of finding the perfect T-shirt. Following their vision of comfortable, fitted T-shirts, they set up shop in Gela’s one-bedroom Hollywood apartment with $200 and one rule: Whatever they did, they both had to be obsessed by it. Pam and Gela eventually sold their company to Liz Claiborne for $50 million, but not before they created a whole new genre of casual clothing that came to define California cool.

In Russian Winter, the beautiful debut novel by critically acclaimed writer Daphne Kalotay, a famed ballerina’s jewelry auction in Boston reveals long-held secrets of love and family, friendship and rivalry, harkening back to Stalinist Russia. Called “tender, passionate, and moving” by Jenna Blum, the New York Times bestselling author of Those Who Save Us, Russian Winter is a perfect choice for fans of the novels of Debra Dean (The Madonnas of Leningrad), Ann Patchett (Bel Canto), and Ian McEwan (Atonement).

Story
Pink and pretty or predatory and hardened, sexualized girlhood influences our daughters from infancy onward, telling them that how a girl looks matters more than who she is. Somewhere between the exhilarating rise of Girl Power in the 1990s and today, the pursuit of physical perfection has been recast as a source - the source - of female empowerment. And commercialization has spread the message faster and farther, reaching girls at ever-younger ages.

Great Information, a bit cobbled together
Lot's of great information. It seems this used to be a program on a set of disks. Here and there it tells us to put in disk #. Also, refers to an accompanying Beauty Revival Guide that can be downloaded, I could not find that anywhere. Near the end of the book, he keeps referring us to specific pages in the book. Adding a pdf download would be appreciated. I think this was recycled recording, it could be improved by editing out the statements that don't make sense in an audiobook.

Save your credit, get the book
There is lots of good advice in this, but he often refers to pages in the book or items on his website, which seem to be unavailable or non-existent. This really needs an accompanying PDF with all the quizzes and such he talks about, While it is an interesting listen, you are better off with the book.

Absolutely terrible
This guy is full of gibberish. He spend a whole chapter doing a drone like tirade on his opinion of fashion. There were other equally bad parts but I don't have the time or energy to go into them. I listened on thinking that somewhere the book would get better. After being half way through I gave up. It go no better.
