Book Reviews of Beauty Secrets of the Bible

Book Review: I wish I had written this book!
Summary: 5 Stars

I have been searching for this book for a long time!

As an author passionate about God's design for eating, I have been "hungry" to learn about God's design for face/hair/body/beauty care. I have searched for years for the best products at Whole Foods, but somehow I could never believe that pricey, man-made products were the answer, no matter how "natural" they were. When I tried dabbling in my own "natural" toiletries, the results were mediocre at best.

Enter "Beauty Secrets of the Bible." This wonderfully simple book combines credible research (and source citations) with practical, simple and inexpensive ways for us to care for our bodies.

The chapter on weight loss should be read by every woman, since it provides astute insights into why most of us are so focused on our looks/weight in the first place; it provides a new vision for how to think about our weight and body shapes. It also provides practical tips for achieving a *healthy* weight, which I believe is God's design for us (not a size 2). I also loved the chapter for skin, which helped answer my ongoing question, "How do I best care for my skin, without spending a fortune, and in the most natural way possible?" Garrett also digs into the "inside-out" issues that impact our skin quality, such as diet and lifestyle.

What I liked most about this book, however, was its unfailing, continual attempt to uncover answers to these issues from God's perspective, using a variety of Scripture verses, "creator"-type thought processes, etc. While I did not agree with every single point (for example, Garrett urges readers to use sunscreen to protect their skin, while I tend to believe God designed sunshine for our good), I think most of her attempts to discern God's will for our bodies were right on.

You won't be disappointed by this book, especially at such a nice price.

Summary of Beauty Secrets of the Bible

Every woman can accentuate her God-given beauty using the hidden treasures of the ancient Scriptures.

Ginger Garrett reveals how every woman can accent her God-given beauty using the hidden treasures of the ancient Scriptures-where every scent and every act of beautification had spiritual and emotional significance.
A woman's longing to present herself as physically beautiful is universal. Beauty is extolled throughout the Bible as complementing God's plan for women's lives. There are currently no books that examine the beauty practices of biblical women, the plants and products God created to accent their beauty, and the spiritual roots of feminine rituals.
Beautiful women abound in the Bible: Queen Esther, the bride of Solomon, Delilah, Rachel, Sarah, and more. Their beauty was a gift from God, and God also supplied the many foods, spices, and oils that perfected each woman's appearance. In Beauty Secrets of the Bible, Ginger Garrett helps readers accent their God-given beauty using these secrets.
Women who read the book will understand the essential oils and fragrances mentioned in Scripture (and why they are making a comeback) and will be able to create a regimen based on all-natural ancient products and techniques. Beauty Secrets of the Bible gives readers what other beauty books lack: the knowledge that a woman's unique earthly beauty is indeed a blessing from God that can be cultivated.
