5.0 out of 5 stars A reader and client from Dallas, Texas, May 2, 2000

By 

Merry Vose (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Timeless Skin: Healthy Skin for a Lifetime (Paperback)

Not only have I read Carolyn's book from cover to cover, but I have been a loyal client of hers for eight years. Her knowledge and philosophy of treatment is special in the age of "high-tech" skincare hype. She believes in consistency and a basic 3-step cleansing process. Carolyn knows about the skin as an organ and believes in treating not just ones problem, but helps to determine the cause. Ash's book is direct, highly informative, and covers any question or concern you could possibly have with your skin- she's seen it all!

5.0 out of 5 stars extremely useful book, September 3, 2000

By 

Sharon Kraus - See all my reviews

This review is from: Timeless Skin: Healthy Skin for a Lifetime (Paperback)

As a health care practitioner, I appreciate having found a skin care book which I can recommend to my clients. The book is well written and pleasant reading, and Ms. Ash takes a wholistic and intelligent approach to skin care which clearly outlines the needs of our skin and how to properly maintain it. She also addresses attitudes and approaches toward aging gracefully and how to avoid some of the current trends in skin care which work against healthy skin in the long run. This book does not endorse any particular line of skin care product but sticks to straightforward facts about our body and its needs. It does, however, help the reader avoid the many very expensive skin care products on the market which are, in fact, less that healthy for ones skin. My clients who have read and begun using the information contained in this book (as well as myself), have had very good results with their skin, and we have been fortunate in finding products to meet our needs. Thank you.

5.0 out of 5 stars A no nonsense skincare book!, August 18, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Timeless Skin: Healthy Skin for a Lifetime (Paperback)

At last a book that gives a no nonsense path to skincare. This book describes skin problems and how to solve them. One of the more important chapters will eventually affect everyone- OLD AGE! I like Carolyn's approach to this subject. Skincare is more than just creams and lotions and this book encompasses the whole you.
