Summary: Sorry Copycat of BAP handbook
Comment: This book was an awful copycat take on the BAP handbook. Eager to pick up where the BAP handbook left off, it fails miserably. This book brings on a fake air of sophistication by use of too many unusual adjectives and french phrases that no one understands.This book makes unreachable middle aged black female entertainers the center of admiration while ignoring the average career woman.Music, furs, and designer clothing are all it takes to be fabulous according to Beautylicious. The coverage of other topics are similiar to reading Essence. A sorry waste of time.

Summary: Living Fabulously!
Comment: Fun and filled with wonderful tips, author Jenyne M. Raines presents black American queens and princesses with a guide to living the way we were born to. Have a highlighter and a page-marking technique handy because BEAUTYLICIOUS! is chock full of sensational practices and skills you need to know and possess in order to live life to the fullest. Raines explores everything from developing good posture, behaving like a lady in public, hosting the bomb parties, buying the best for less, taking care of your hair in another country, and developing friends. Included in these pages are websites, recommended books, movies every black woman should own, and what should be in every doll's CD collection. She makes references throughout the novel to beautylicious greats, past and present, like Diahann Carroll, Josephine Baker, Pam Grier, Lena Horne, Halle Berry, Eartha Kitt, and more. Raines constantly takes lessons from their lifestyles and presents us "normal dolls" with knowledgeable routines to live by. She encourages readers to get a pet, eat healthy and exercise, save money, and stay in touch with their spiritual side. Raines doesn't just instruct on physical maintenance, but she also teaches readers how to maintain the mental, spiritual, social, and emotional aspects towards developing true inner beauty. BEAUTYLICIOUS! is indeed the beauty Bible for African American women young and old.
I thoroughly enjoyed every single moment I spent with BEAUTYLICIOUS! by Jenyne Raines. Her writing style is carefree, fun, and quite comical at times. I felt as though she was my best friend sitting next to me in a coffee shop passionately telling me everything I need to know to make the most out of the life God blessed me with. The information presented within these pages is simply invaluable and, after careful highlighting, I will refer back to it often. Of all the information she presents, the most helpful for me was learning about the components of Team Me. Every woman needs to have a Team Me to survive and if you really want to know what that entails, pick up this book today. You won't be disappointed.
