5.0 out of 5 stars
With committment, it works!, October 23, 2004
This review is from: Advanced Face Aerobics [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I first discovered this video six years ago. I followed the exercises avidly for several years and completely re-shaped my face (I felt motivated because I saw results after a month). Although I did not tell anyone I was doing these exercises, people would mistake me for being in my 30's--however, I was 48 at the time--and it always amazed people when I would tell them my age. At 50, I still looked in my late 30's, and no one could believe I was 50! It was like having a facelift, only more natural. I got lazy and quit doing the exercises, and I noticed, over time, people no longer said I looked 35--and I began to notice my results fading--jaw started sagging, eyes started drooping, and I started to look my age--just like when you get out of shape in your body. So, recently, I decided to re-purchase the videos (I had misplaced them in a move) and committed to doing the exercises avidly. I am now 54 years old, but I am already seeing results again--most notably, my eyes have "opened up" and my face is firming up. I don't expect to look 35 now--since other factors of age are at play--however, my goal is to look in my 40's--and I believe that is achievable with this amazing program. As a bonus, the exercises are relaxing--and I look forward to doing them each evening. I have purchased other exercise videos that just demonstrate the exercise, then you have to pause the video and complete the exercises yourself. With this video, you get to relax and just follow along. It's great. One thing I would love to see however--I would like to see what Judith Olivia looks like now--ten years after making this video! :)

Great Results Fast!, May 10, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Advanced Face Aerobics [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I bought the Face Aerobics video after reading about Miss Olivia in Shape Magazine. Exercise works for the body, why not for the face? At first, I was concerned that facial exercises would cause MORE wrinkles- that's what I've heard before. But, Olivia says that in the past, other facial exercises DID cause problems because they were stretching the skin. Face Aerobics exercises were designed to strenghthen and tone up the facial muscles WITHOUT stretching the delicate skin on the face. So, I took the plunge and followed the video's advice- doing the exercises almost everyday for two weeks. Wow! I don't look tired anymore. The eyebags were the first to go, and then my jawline and cheeks perked up. I do not look "pulled" like I've seen on many cosmetic surgery patients. People comment that I have lost weight or look great even without makeup on. Now I do Face Aerobics 2-3 times a week to maintain my new face. I think I look 10 years younger. (I am 53) But, I feel 20 years younger! I would say, BUY this video. It's easy to follow along with rather than try to imitate the exercises out of a book. I've learned to do the exercises sowell, that I do them while I wash the dishes, walk the dog and even when I take a shower. Thank you Judith Olivia for Face Aerobics!

Gives visible results FAST, October 15, 2003
This review is from: Advanced Face Aerobics [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I also have purchased other facial exercise videos in the past and none have given results like Face Aerobics. I found it simple to do, and very easy to follow Judith's examples. I was feeling a bit down on my birthday last year as the years were beginning to show on my face. I have now reversed the clock with this program. It is not going to make you look 20 but it will make you look the very best for your age. By the way, a surgical face lift WILL NOT make you look 20 either. You will look unaturally stretched and different. Your skin and/or facial muscles will be damaged, and in 6 to 8 yrs you'll need another lift. With natual gentle Face Aerobics you'll simply be maintaining your results for the rest of your life. So, what would you rather do? Spend [twenty] for a safe, healthy, natural face lift or [fifteen grand] for surgery with temporary results and risks?
