Journalist, broadcaster, Guardian columnist and founder of the award-winning salihughesbeauty.com, Sali Hughes first book - 'Pretty Honest: The Straight-Talking Beauty Companion' - is exactly as its name implies. Demystifying everything from skin type to colour rules, acne to salon etiquette - this is a gorgeous gift for your teenage goddaughter, beauty-obsessed best friend or self-help manual for the totally clueless. Having addressed the concerns of her (expansive) readership for more than a decade, Sali understands our uncertainties and helps demystify the beauty industry with helpful and honest advice (without gobbledegook). 'I strongly believe that all women, without exception, look better with beauty products' writes Sali; 'whether it's a little tinted moisturiser and mascara, or a swooshy eyeliner and red lips. And the key word here is 'better', because contrary to what the ad men want us to believe, I know [...] we don't look at supermodels and want to look like them, and live on cotton wool and Marlboro Lights. Overwhelmingly, we just want to look like ourselves, only beautiful. I'll help you do it.' And help, she most certainly does...

Sali Hughes knows more than a thing or two about putting your best face forward – with over twenty years’ beauty (and life!) experience, Pretty Honest is a funny and forthright skin care, make up (and survival) manual for women of all ages; the beautiful, pale pink cover contains over 300 pages of Sali’s wonderfully conversational wit, wisdom and personal memoir, in which she pays homage to the face altering properties of the right lipstick, steers girls (and worried mothers) through their teenage complexion crises and waxes lyrical about the importance of make up’s power to transform us both physically and emotionally. A far cry from the ‘usual’ beauty book, Sali steers clear of jargon and shies away from ‘aspiration’ – instead, this tome is dedicated to helping real women understand how easy it is to make tiny tweaks that have a phenomenal impact on one’s looks, and self-esteem.
