In the natural sequel to her international bestseller French Women Don’t Get Fat, Mireille Guiliano tackles the delicate subject of aging – showing how women of forty and beyond can ‘attack’ the upcoming decades with attitude and style. Witty, perceptive and bursting with Mireille’s personal experiences, the book covers everything from skincare secrets and fashion tips to the role of relationships and the importance of relaxation. The path to aging elegantly lies in lifestyle choices and attitude adjustments rather than Botox and collagen fillers. After all, while American, Brazilian and Chinese women lead global cosmetic surgery figures, French women don’t even make the Top Ten.

Critic reviews

Like a fabulous friend sharing her secrets, Mireille divulges, encourages and inspires. And she does it with joy. (Pamela Druckerman)
French women have incredible style and confidence. Mireille is an inspiration and her book is a must-read for any woman wanting to look better and ultimately feel more beautiful. (Bobbi Brown)
French Women Don’t Get Facelifts is [...] ostensibly as light as a meringue but actually as satisfying as Guilano’s recipe for duck with caramelised mango [...] It’s a “no” not only to the scalpel and Botox needle, but also to fad diets and costly anti-ageing serums [...] It’s a Oui, Oui, Oui to facials [and]diets “where nothing is restricted but everything is encouraged in moderation”.
C'est magnifique!
It's hard to resist a chance to tackle the wrinkles in your self-esteem with Guiliano's wholly engaging take on how women of 40 and upwards can "attack" the ageing process with "attitude and style", whether through skincare secrets and fashion tips or the role of relationships and the importance of relaxation. Mais... it's about so much more than botox. I was completely won over by it.
With her charmingly conversational tone, Guiliano walks readers through the mental and physical steps of aging with attitude, covering everything from cosmetics to spiritual life.

Any additional comments?

This book is basically about healthy living with all the usual stuff about doing exercise, drinking gallons of water etc. There weren't many gems of French wisdom about style which is what I was hoping for, there was however plenty of French pomposity!

It's also very biased towards the USA for statistics, life style and ....... well for everything. I was disappointed but if you are looking for a healthy living book this is pretty good.

Disappointing

Talk about dragging out a very small idea into a book! Very repetitive, it’s all said in the first and last chapters. The dreadfully longwinded description of a game of pétanque almost had me screaming with boredom. Don’t waste a credit on this one

Boring

Definitely will re-read and make notes. A must recommendation for girlfriends. A surprising guide to female life considerations covering the lifespan.
