Synopsis

From age-defying makeup to the latest diet fad, our culture continually tells women they need to have a flawless face and a supermodel figure. Exposing the lie of physical perfection for what it really is, True Beauty directs women to the truth of God’s Word, which proclaims an entirely different—and refreshingly liberating—standard for beauty. Carolyn Mahaney and her daughter Nicole Whitacre set forth a path to freedom from the false idols that society, the Devil, and the human heart have created. Drawing on years of experience as mothers, writers, and popular bloggers, Mahaney and Whitacre help ladies to exchange the temporary glamour of pop culture for the unfading beauty of godliness.

Goodreads review by Lauren on April 29, 2025

While her observations and diagnosis of the problem are true, the solutions she gives feel a little too shallow, addressing surface level issues rather than deeper heart-issues. Benefitted from discussion about the book more than the book itself.......more
