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.
