Book Reviews of The Skin Type Solution
Book Review: Very helpful information
Summary: 5 Stars
After 60 yrs. of living and thousands of $$$$ spent on skincare products, I finally know what type of skin I have! There is a very easy quiz at the start of the book which will tell you what skin type you are (there are 16 types!) and what products work best for that skin type. I can now go to the drug or department stores and buy what I need to keep my skin from breaking out or wrinkling. Dr. Baumann lists many products in each category that you can choose from - they range from the economical to the expensive - and she also lists the stores and/or websites where you can purchase them. She also recommends a daily routine for AM/PM. I highly recommend this book for the younger generations so you don't waste a lot of time & money on skincare that will do nothing for you.
Summary of The Skin Type Solution
From Dr. Leslie Baumann, a world-renowned dermatologist, comes a program that's revolutionizing the way people everywhere think about-and shop for-skin care. Now you can identify and buy the products that are right for your true skin type. Answer the Baumann questionnaire inside this book and within minutes you can learn.As everyone knows, all skin is not created equal. But whereas previous books identified only four basic skin types, through her cutting-edge clinical research in Miami Beach, Dr. Leslie Baumann discovered that there are actually sixteen distinctly different skin types-each with unique needs all its own. But caring for your skin doesn't have to be complicated. As Director of Cosmetic Dermatology at the Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami, Dr. Baumann has tested her program on thousands of patients, developing a system that is already transforming dermatology. Now her proven program is available to you. You'll discover:
. Your personal skin type profile detailing exactly what will work-and what won't-for your unique complexion
. An extensive product guide to name brands suited to every skin type and budget, including cleansers, moisturizers, toners, sun blocks, foundations, and much more
. Natural health and dietary advice for beautiful skin
. Tips on preventing skin aging and "problem" skin
. The latest information on the new world of prescription products, facials, chemical peels, Retin-A, Botox, and collagen injections
So take the questionnaire, discover your type, and find the products you need to look like a million bucks without spending a fortune. With this book in hand, you'll save time, money-and something even more valuable: your skin.
