Book review: Secrets of a Beauty Queen

*The* woman for beauty advice.

You could argue that Stephanie Darling is *the* woman for beauty advice. While not an expert per se, she belongs to a league of which few are members: beauty editors.

Now at the tail end of her editorial career, Darling has had the fortune to try the good, the expensive and the controversial when it comes to beauty treatments. She brings together her years of experience with Secrets of a Beauty Queen.

The new release sees Darling recount tales of a colourful career, intercepted with product tips developed over 40 years of beauty writing. It’s witty, warm and well-informed.
