SPECIAL POINTS

This book has lots to offer. There is an interesting section on the history of nail polish and practises that have come and gone. There are great photos and it is really easy to read, especially as it is bound in a binder format. I was also impressed with the compact size of this book. I also checked the back of the book to see if it had an index and I wasn't disappointed. Not only is there an index for easy reference, but a glossary as well. This book definitely appealed to me.

WHAT I LIKED ABOUT THIS BOOK

If you are new to the world of nail care, this book is for you. It is clearly written with the beginner in mind. A nice touch was the addition of photos of the tools required, just in case you aren't familiar with their appearance. All instructions including manicure information are very clearly explained.
