Robert Jones' Makeup Masterclass: A Complete Course in Makeup for All Levels, Beginner to Advanced

Awesome book for beginners like me!

Just received the Robert Jones Masterclass and so far the book is good. This book has something for everybody who is into makeup. Robert Jones gives you in depth information about different types of foundation, eye liner, blushes, eye shadow, and etc to in depth information on Skin care, skin types, Foundation color match to your skin color, figuring out skin undertone to applying makeup on imperfections on the face like Dark circles, blemishes and etc. When it comes to the brushes section, I felt it was good in showing the pictures of the brushes and their use but I didn't like the fact that the brushes were identified by number instead of name, especially when nobody uses numbers to identify a makeup brush. So to me that is confusing, especially for a beginner like me. What sets this book apart or makes it stand out from others, is it will satisfy Lovers of Contouring(Chapter 4) of different skin tones with it's in depth steps to get a perfect contour and it has a excellent eye section(chapter 5 & 6). Robert Jones covered everything you can possibly think of when it comes to eyes. Through step by step facial instructions of eyebrows, eye lash application, eye makeup application based on eye shape, eye makeup looks, and etc. I will definitely recommend this book to anybody especially a beginner.

I highly recommend this makeup guide. It is in depth, provides great detail, features beautiful and thoughtful pictures to show you each step and the final look, and is a pleasure to read.I recommend pairing this book with “The Make-Up Manual” by Lisa Potter Dixon. Great gift for someone who is starting to experiment with makeup or someone (like me) who needed more guidance on how to do makeup “correctly”/in a way that flatters my face and features.

This book is full of useful information, written in a way that makes you feel you're taking lessons from a patient friend. We can do a lot more than we think we can with the information we have at our fingertips in this book!

I love this book. I am a beginner and this helps tremendously. I love how there are step by step instructions, accompanied by pictures for each step. I needed that. The only frustration was that the book was torn on the bottom front cover when I opened it. I’m not going to return it because I can deal with it. It’s just annoying.

Very informative

Great book.

This is exactly the kind of book I was looking forward to give my protégé more insight when I am not able to be around
