The closest books to me at the moment are in the bookshelf behind me. I cleaned off the second computer so I could set a third computer on top of it while I repaired it. That is the usual location for the computer wisdom book pile which would normally be closest to me.
Hence: from "Color Me Beautiful", by Carol Jackson.
Some cosmetics lines are heavily weighted toward one base tone, and you may find nothing for you. Even the chemist who creates these colors is influenced by his or her own season, intuitivly. Helena Rubenstein, before her death, was actively involved with the creation of her own line of cosmetics. She was a Winter. Now I know why I always had good luck at her counter. So, it you aren't finding what you need, don't hesitate to say, "None of these is right for me", and move on to the next counter.
