ESTEE LAUDER BOOKS
|
| I
have two new books related to Estee Lauder Solid perfumes and Powder
Comapacts. For the last 10 years I have been researching and
learning about Estée Lauder collectible compacts. During these years I
have met many dedicated collectors. These are collectors that are spread
out all over the world. Collectors are always looking for information
about these beautiful compacts but there are a very limited number of
resources for this information. I decided to create an educational book
that will bring the collectors needed information on these Estée Lauder
items. Finally collectors will have a reference to see what is
available. You can order now on Etsy, eBay or directly from me at Sizzlesells@aol.com Ann Schweiger |

was searching on-line for a make of carryall called
"Beauty-Full" and found this book:
"The Compacts and Cosmetics: Beauty from Victorian Times to the Present Day" by Madeleine Marsh. I couldn't see it listed on the "Books" page on the website and thought other members may find it of interest especially as, at the moment - 28th July 2016 - it is only 99p to download to Kindle from Amazon! Here's a link: Hannah O'Byrne https://www.amazon.co.uk/Compacts-Cosmetics-Beauty-Victorian-Present/

| Another book link sent in by
member Hannah O'Byrne. A book with lots of pictures of compacts, again
available on the Kindle App via Amazon (£2.25)
"A Beginner's Guide To Collecting Powder
Compacts" Kindle Edition by Caroline Y Preston
