It's a fact: Acne affects at least 50 million American men and women of all ages, ethnicities, and skin types. Yet so few of us understand why we have acne, and what we can do to treat it. Did I wash my face the wrong way? Did I eat too much chocolate? Wi

I bought this book and sadly returned it, even though I was really hoping that Vanessa Williams, the gorgeous glossy mag editor from Ugly Betty, have made an input more than her name on the cover. Basically, it's nothing more than a sales pitch for Proactive Solutions skincare line, and I guess we have enough of that in magazines and on TV. I don't believe that people have to pay a lot of money for a really long advertisement! Acne-wise, the book is nothing new. Benzoyl peroxide and sulphur are two mainstays, along with stress relief. Nothing that I couldn't find online or in any beauty magazine. Disappointed.

I found this book very disappointing. It was extremely repetitive & didn't really tell me anything new. You would not know it from the other review, but the authors have their own skin care routine & spend most of the book promoting this! As a UK reader it was a waste of money. Sadly I will have to continue my search for an adult acne remedy.

I have suffered for 10 years with acne and have tried pretty much everything including accutane and i always return to the same spotty face looking back at me. Upon reading this book, armed with new tips and information, i embarked on a whole new skin care regime. Within one week of using the new tips, incredibly my skin has cleared considerably without any nasty side effects. 4 weeks later and my skin gets better every day. this book confirms what I have thought for years, acne is NOT curable, it is only managable. If you have acne, you MUST buy this book. The book provides you with simple steps and explanations of everything to help you cope with acne.
