Very useful and easy to follow for a beginner
30 Aug 2005
Format:Paperback
I stumbled upon this book at my local library recently and am still going through it. But I have started using its 4-minute facial massage (using olive oil) everyday for past 3 days and am already feeling a difference in my facial skin. It just looks more alive. I must tell that I am 30 years old and have struggled with acne all my youth and adult life and I have tried almost everything out there that my skin can endure with completely unsatisfactory results. So, when I came across this book, I decided to give the program a try. After all what did I have to lose after wasting so much on anti-acne and anti-aging products all these years.
For past 2 days I have also started doing the facial exercises and am still not comfortable with all of them, but am very hopeful about the results. The photos are helpful but I wish there were more illustrations from different angles.
I really like the way book explains about the skin and muscles with good diagrams. Also the information on essential oils is very useful about which I was completely ignorant till now. I plan to try some of the essential oils suitable for my acne prone skin for massage. Like I said above, for the past 3 days I've been using extra virgin olive oil for massage, the same that I use for cooking and haven't used my regular anti-acne moisturizer or night cream and my face doesn't feel dry or my acne worse.
I am going to review a couple more books on this subject but I have almost made up my mind to buy 2 copies of this book 1 for myself and 1 for my elder sister.
