DVD Review: Plastic Surgery Without The Surgery
Emmy-winning makeup artist Eve Pearl has created an instructional and informational book and follow-up DVD called Plastic Surgery Without the Surgery: The Miracle of Make-Up Techniques ($30). She believes that many women who consider plastic surgery could benefit from a makeup tutorial instead.

Bella Brand: Eve Pearl
Eve Pearl had a career in business until her makeup artist mother became short-handed on the set of a Broadway show and begged her to help fill in.

I didn't know what to expect from the show, but seeing a naked man wearing nothing but a flesh-colored thong and body paint was certainly a shock.
