Grade 7 Up-Beauty professionals respond to health and beauty tips sent in by contributors of the Alloy.com Internet community. Chapters address hair care, makeup, skin care, and natural products. Within each chapter, suggestions from teens are followed by comments from experts. These statements often point out dangerous practices, modify procedures, or provide better solutions to the particular problem addressed. The book has a number of interviews with makeup artists and celebrities including MTV's Audrey da Costa and rock star Shirley Manson. Sidebars on the history of beauty practices are also included. The layout of the book is reminiscent of a magazine, with line drawings interspersed throughout and the use of different fonts, frames, and shades of color to highlight text. Perhaps the biggest drawbacks are the lack of clear illustrations of techniques and the fact that some readers may find "recipe" instructions calling for "equal parts" of everything too unspecific. Nonetheless, readers will enjoy this high-interest, browsable item and will find it more accessible than Bobbi Brown Teenage Beauty (HarperCollins, 2000).
