Good information:
I am thankful that this book is out there to educate all of us trying to swim our way through the drugstore for skincare products.

Attn all women interested in their skin!:
This book is the best book I've ever read for the home user of skin care products who need help in selecting cleansers, toners, moisturizers, etc. I am recommending this book to all of my clients. It is nice to discover my views and philosopy of skin care (after nearly 20 years in the field) (which I teach my clients) agree with about 98% of what Dr. Ciraldo promotes...a nice validation for me!
Beauty camp:
While there were some very practical suggestions to improve your skin, the book did not give any specifics. I found it a bit complicated. There were no real solutions for me other than dont use soap, anything laurate (look at product ingredients) and shea butter. It will take me more than 6 weeks to understand all the technical mumbo-jumbo.
6 wks to sensational skin:
The book is very good. I like the content because it's clear and very sensible advise.
