5Cheeper than a Face Lift  Jun 15, 2001 By M. Smith "Alicia E"
How to wash your face is a favorite book of mine as well as my frineds. Any woman who is getting to the point where she is unhappy with her face because her age is beginning to show due to the apperance of her skin should buy this book. If you read the book and actually follow the instructions for your skin type you WILL see a difference in your apperance within 30 days. The best part of the book is the fact that Dr. Kenet gives you the choice of expensive or "cheap" products so that you can fit the skin care products you need into your budget. This book makes a wonderful gift but keep one for yourself because you'll be amazed at the results if you follow Dr. Kenet's advice!

5book teaches healthy ways to keep clean  Mar 22, 2011 By sabby
Great book! Americans tend to over-wash, and the author warns against that habit, which tends to harm our skin. Nice reference, or to pass on to a friend. I bought it because I had first read it in a library. Easy to skim, well-organized. I liked the point about maintaining cleanliness without ruining our skin. The book makes product recommendations, but I had some difficulty finding some of the products.

Within one monthes time my face has inproved greatly. I have less brakeouts and just more beautiful skin. For the last six years I never that my face could look this good.

3Useful insight into skincare  Aug 28, 1999
I enjoyed reading the opinions of this author, but on the whole:"A dummies guide to beautiful skin" is much more useful and definitely better value for money.

2Book has potential, comes up short  Aug 27, 2003 By m.e.
Overall, this book apears promising, but in the end, it fails to deliver. Some of the tips are good: smoking isn't healthy for you. Other tips are bad or dubious: esential oils are better for your skin than almost any other products. Then there's the tips that just fall into the "just weird" category: wash your face only once a day... or... showering for more than 5 minutes is destructive to your skin.
I would have liked to see more discussion on exfoliation and antioxidants. The authors seem to entirely overlook the benefits of Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) products, focusing largely on AHA exfoliation. They also push moisturizer for all skin types, which seems kinda unnecessary.
Instead of this book, I'd recomend Paula Begoun's "Beauty Bible," which seems much more effectively presented, researched and documented. Note that Begoun is not a medical doctor, which makes her expertise in this area even more surprising.
