5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful book, February 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Naturally Healthy Skin: Tips & Techniques for a Lifetime of Radiant Skin (Herbal Body Series) (Paperback)

I purchased many books on skin care in an attempt to improve the appearance of my skin in the most natural way possible. This book was the only book that delivered what it promised: The methods needed in order to attain Naturally Healthy Skin. It had very practical, livable tips, and recipes for improving my skin; Stephanie Tourles also presents a very balanced approach by recommending when and when not to look to conventional methods. I am also so glad that she was so unbiased in her recommendations- she did not try to sell me anything, and when possible gave the remedy to various ailments at minimal costs.

This book greatly exceeded my expectations. It is clearly written, concise, and very informative. The author offers many good ideas on how to formulate your own skin care products for your skin type. I have tried many of her suggestions, and my skin has never felt healthier & clearer. As someone who has suffered from acne for years, this is a real tribute to the author!
