Review Situational Problems for the Cosmetology Student (SPANISH) / Milady:A word-for-word, page-for-page Spanish translation of Milady's Situational Problems for Cosmetology Students. The text tests students’ knowledge of how they should apply the information they have learned to real-life situations. While the exam review gauges their recollection of information, this text asks that information, this text asks that they apply that knowledge to situations that more closely reflect what they are likely to encounter as a salon employee, demonstrating that they know how to use the information they have learned. The questions are more complex than Exam Review questions, or attitudes. The student will have to take many factors into account to achieve the desired results, both from a technical and a communication perspective. Answers are included in the back of the book.

Review Cosmetics & Perfumes in the Roman World / Tempus:How widely did women use make-up in ancient Rome and what evidence exists? In this pioneering study, the author draws on literary, non-literary, visual, and archaeological evidence to show the importance of cosmetics and perfumes for health, ideas of beauty, social status, as a demonstration of wealth and luxury, and as an expression of gender within the Roman Empire. Covering the 300 years from the writings of Ovid to the Price Edict of Diocletian in AD 301, the study acts as a survey of the perception and reality behind the use of cosmetics and perfumes under the Roman Empire.
