Slap on a Little Lipstick... You'll Be Fine

My Mom gave me this book many years ago and I continue to give to friends. It’s beautiful.

Really a clever little book to encourage any women friends that are feeling a little down. I gave this book along with a new lipstick and it really was a hit. The words in the book are so true and all women can relate. I highly recommend.

I gave Slap on a little lipstick you'll be fine book as a gift.I had read the book beforehand, & thought it was right on.Loved it, & so did the person I gave it to.

So cute! Makes a great gift!

Gave to a friend and had some good laughs.

I love Nora Ephron and this book was recommended to me by Amazon!I'm sorry, I don't get it. This book sucked! The best thing about it was it's title. Oh, I read it in less than 2 minutes.

Okay, I admit it: I love Jodi Hill's work. She uses bold primary colors in her powerful illustrations. She uses strong, simple language in her message of joy and hope.In 2004, Hill launched her writer/author life with Hope-So Too about a young adopted Asian child who adopts a puppy. It's a message of hope.In Believe and I Am Amazed, she talks to women young and old--with words that make you want to buy copies for sisters, daughters and friends.In this newest book, Slap on a Little Lipstick...You'll be Fine celebrates the beauty of all women. All of our mothers had such (sometimes inane) statements--some we grabbed onto, others we ignored and yet others we scoffed at. Using the lipstick print we've all left on napkins--and other places, Hill's illustrations are vivid and fun, as are her words.Slap on is about women facing each day--making it happen ... surviving ... putting up with ... overcoming challenges ... laughter or crying ... sharing our inner beauty--all the while wearing Apricot Beige #7 or Antique Rose.Like cosmetic companies that discontinued MY favorite color when it has become my daily dab on, life gives us changes, or stops something abruptly that we have become used to.Jodi Hills says, "When you are a daughter, mother, sister or girlfriend--you are proof positive that daily surviving can be a beautiful thing."Armchair Interviews says: Slap on a little lipstick...you'll be fine!

This book is such a delight to read, reread, and then to share it with other women. It holds lots of "truths" about how we feel about ourselves as women and the fact that "slappling on a little lipstick" truly can help you feel better about yourself and about the situations that surround you.
