sparkle, but no depth..., Aug 12 2003
This review is from: Body Art Chic: The First Step-By-Step Guide to Body Painting, Temporary Tattoos, Piercing, Hair Design, and Nail Art (Paperback)
The only reason to buy the book is the list of suppliers in the back. The only list I've found so far for paints which are safe for use on skin. I found this book disapointing. The photos are beautiful, but too much space is used on 'lick-and-stick' tatoos. One was more than enough. If you can't figure out how to apply them from the instuctions on the card, you have a problem... More images of body paint or henna would have been appropriate. The book also promised tips on makeup and hair, I found the styles mundane and the instructions mediocre .

Body Art for the Teenage Girl, Jan 7 2002
This review is from: Body Art Chic: The First Step-By-Step Guide to Body Painting, Temporary Tattoos, Piercing, Hair Design, and Nail Art (Paperback)
If you are a teenage girl looking for a way to shock your parents, this book will definately assist you. Or, if you live in a trailer park, this is the book for you. Not a good book for a person who takes thier tattoos and peircings serious. The book was serious and trivial, but in all seriousness I am sure most high school girls would love it -- OK, at least the "bad" girls.

Amusingly cute, Nov 2 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Body Art Chic: The First Step-By-Step Guide to Body Painting, Temporary Tattoos, Piercing, Hair Design, and Nail Art (Paperback)
The cover photo immortalizes the teen-glitter-glam pop princess overkill look of the late '90s. Unfortunately, most of the inside isn't that glamorous, featuring a number of body-art ideas that are unlikely to appeal to even the most fearless fashion experimenters (barcode temporary tattoos? yuck!). Still, some of the tips are informative, and some of the photos are cute enough to appeal to Spicemania nostalgists. Probably a good stocking-stuffer for younger teens who are uninhibited by notions of good taste.
