Beyond Botox: 7 Strategies for Sexy, Ageless Skin Without Needles or Surgery [Hardcover]

Ben Kaminsky (Author), Howard Kaminsky (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: October 9, 2006

Sexy and ageless skin is possible for a woman at any age--and she doesn't have to resort to invasive treatments like Botox to get it-as long as she cares for her skin properly, says Ben Kaminsky, founder of B. Kamins, Chemist and leading authority in helping women's skin look healthy and beautiful. In Beyond Botox, Kaminsky provides a groundbreaking 7-step plan to help skin look younger and sexier...without Botox or surgical procedures. The book's plan is based in science and targeted specifically to women who are searching for a common-sense alternative to eating fish 6 days a week (a la Perricone).

This plan includes scientific secrets on how exercising too vigorously can rob your skin of vitality; how getting 8 hours' sleep for a week will take years off your skin; and how using the right amount of moisturizer (and the right weight of moisturizer) will actually make a difference in how your skin looks and feels. Beyond Botox will not advocate use of only B. Kamins products. Kaminsky will talk about popular products and how to find creams that will make a difference on your skin type.

B. Kamins, Chemist has established itself as THE skincare brand for women in midlife, and this book will establish itself as THE book for women who want vital-looking skin in midlife and beyond.

This review is from: Beyond Botox: 7 Strategies for Sexy, Ageless Skin Without Needles or Surgery (Hardcover)

Subtitled: 7 Strategies for Sexy, Ageless Skin without Needles or Surgery

I have never considered getting Botox before, but I have been in search of sexier skin. This book explains in depth how to get beautiful skin, no matter what age you are. The dermatologists who wrote this book write with years of experience but at a level for the average reader to comprehend.

If you are thinking or have thought of Botox, this book will explain thoroughly what it is. It also gives all the true but frightening dangers of the procedure. They explain how important it is to incorporate healthy eating, exercise, stress management, and the proper amount of sleep in order to gain sexy, ageless skin.

So many dermatologists prescribe expensive medications and procedures. It is refreshing to hear Ben and Howard prescribe a healthy lifestyle not a bottle of pills. The doctors promise that if you follow their steps, you will see less wrinkles and age spots, clearer skin, and softer skin.

The $24.99 price tag for the book is a whole lot cheaper than the cost of Botox.

Armchair Interviews says: This is a must for all informed women.
