If you think beauty books aren’t worth the investment, think again. There may be plenty other resources out there when it comes to beauty, but a beauty book can be the ultimate bible to all the skincare and makeup know-hows you’ll ever need. Not to mention, they’ll sit pretty anywhere you place them. Case in point? The new Editing Beauty II by NYLON’s Editor-in-Chief, Adele Chan.

Here are five reasons to check it out:

1. The girls
If the cover girl looks familiar to you, that’s because she’s Diya Prabhakar, a rising model who’s one of eight local It-girls to be featured in the beauty book as well. There, you’ll find a section that delves into the beauty regime of personalities with the likes of Oon Shu An, Claire Jedrek, Munah Bagharib, and Jayne Tham.

2. The tutorials
Get tips from the industry’s experts, including detailed tutorials by celebrity makeup artists such as Dollei Seah, Ginger Lynette Leong, and Grego Oh. Dollei schools us on how to get Alicia Keys’ bare-faced look without actually being bare-faced; Ginger Lynette shows us how to enhance Asian eyes, while Grego Oh gives us his best tips and tricks for those with darker skin tones.
