 Not specific enough November 2, 2007
2 out of 5 found this review helpful
Every time I see a "Carmen-type" woman, I always wonder how they know how to find the perfect shade lipgloss and the awesome tops and jeans. It's as if there is a secret "hot-girl" store. I was hoping Carmen's book would give specifics such as "buy Loreal lipgloss in Perfectly Peach". I understand what looks good on one person may not look good on another, but I bought the book hoping she would be specific about what worked for her. She is also short like me, so I was hoping she would talk specifically about what specific clothing and what lengths work for her. Basically, you could find the exact same advice in beauty magazines like Allure.
 Sexy Like Carmen August 23, 2007
I really liked reading this book. It had a lot of great tips in it. Carmen is beautiful and duh sexy too! So why not learn how to be sexy from one of the sexiest stars?! I think this book is a must for any woman.

When I first started reading this book I was a little put off because I had a silly, first hand narration that seemed a litte forced and corny and faked. But after a while I was completely sold. I have to say I've always liked Carmen. Yes she's a groupie and a bimbo, but she still seems smart and funny and not at all pretentious. No "I'm a serious actress and my [...] are real" bs. Anyway, you get the impression it is actually her own words that are in the book and no ghostwriter and if you are into clothes and makeup and all that it's good stuff. I like the parts about self-esteem too. However there are a couple of chapters at the end that are rather silly, like stuff about trying to charm a guy through body language. I'd much rather have a book called Carmen Electra's Beauty and Health than this because it seems a litte sad and desperate and embarrasing to have in your bookcase. So there are a couple of parts that I think she should have skipped, and also there are a couple of thing I wish she had put in. I think a lot of girls would have been interested in a chapter about body maintance, what she eats and doesn't eat and exercise and how she manages to stay motivated. After all, Electras body is a large part of what makes her famous but she doesn't mention that at all. While I'm at it a bit more about actual sex and relationships wouldn't have hurt either. Overall I'd give it a 3. It's pretty good exept for the name and a few of the chapters and the fact that it's pretty slim. I read it in one sitting.

I have been reading fashion magazines and Kevyn Aucoin books since my early teens. Now, whenever I buy a beauty book (other than the late Aucoin's) it seems to go over the same old stuff. And they always give the same tips, most of which I know aren't that great of tips anyways from experience. I usually end up getting a refund, so I was nervous about this one. But I love Carmen Electra and was obviously curious about what she had to say. I'm surprised at her honesty (some of her tips break traditional makeup rules, but in a good way!). The confidence sections are also very very insightful. She gives great tips that any woman could use in her daily life. The book has definintly taught me to own my confidence.
