Description
"A magical guide.” —Aerin Lauder, Founder & Creative Director of AERIN and Style & Image Director of Estée Lauder
From three generations of French beauty experts, Ageless Beauty the French Way is the ultimate book of tips, products, practices and French beauty secrets in ten categories such as Hair, Skin, Makeup, Sleep, and Perfume.
While many women are passionate about the best skin care lines, hair treatments, and beauty practices, Clémence von Mueffling has that passion in her DNA. Both her mother and grandmother were beauty editors for French Vogue, and Clémence proudly continues their legacy in Ageless Beauty the French Way, a luxurious, entertaining, unparalleled guide to every French beauty secret for women from all walks of life. Learn the most effective ways to let your natural beauty shine through; that double-cleansing your face is the only way to go; that there is more to choosing the perfect perfume than you ever imagined; and that a simple, nightly facial massage is the ultimate secret to an ageless, glamorous, youthful face.
Weaving wisdom from all three women with insiders tips from top beauty experts, Clémence shares both timeless and age-specific information in three categories—Jeunesse (15-35), Plénitude (35-55), and Maturité (55+)—creating a wonderful guide that any woman can cherish throughout her life, and pass down to her daughter through the years.

Ageless Beauty, The French Way is full of practical information to help me look and feel my best as I grow older. With tips on facial and hear cleansing, the best moisturizers, the importance of posture and breathing, facial self massage, hydration, diet, and exercise, this book has something for women of all ages. As the author emphasizes it's not too early to start good habits and it's not too late to incorporate new tricks. I'm giving my daughter a copy of this book.

I was really impressed with how much information is in this book. So much is covered including how to take care of your skin, your hair, dietary changes, exercise, sun protection, makeup, and so much more. The best part of the book is that it is not so much about wearing the right makeup to try to look younger, but about being comfortable and happy with who you are now and enjoying life and celebrating the way you look. There are lots of great makeup tips, product recommendations, and just plain old good advice on how to look your best. It is a great book.
A great book for all ages, written by three generations of a family who were prominent over the years in the French and New York beauty/fashion industry. I found the book to be a very interesting read with some great beauty and health tips for all. They cover the industry of fashion, their experiences and the changes over the years, suggestions on changing routines and styles as one gets older,
Some books about beauty are really only treatises about the continual pursuit of youth, or the folly associated with the pretense of youth. This book makes it clear from the outset that ‘beauty’ is about being one’s best self, whatever that entails for you. And then spends chapters explaining how to attain one’s best self through lifestyle, body/skin care and yes, even modest application of make-up. But the cosmetics discussion is the least of the book and in contrast to similarly titled books, there aren’t pages of directions about how to apply products to cover up lines and wrinkles. The book is most like spending time with a really wise friend filled with good information. Some you may have heard before and some needs repeating. Most you will find helpful, if not immediately, then soon. I know I did. The info is divided into three broad categories of age or time of life, so you can read up and become the wise woman among your friends and family after reading this book. I received my copy from the publisher through NetGalley and am very appreciative.
