Yes, isn't that a great book! Our library has a copy of it, too, so I got to read it for free, but I might just invest in my own copy!

This is an amazing book. I read an earlier version a number of years ago and she has totally changed how I think about buying cosmetics. I am a Cetphil convert, and I usually just buy whatever moisturizer she recommends and is on sale. I should head out and buy the new version as there are so many new products...I think I'll put it on my Christmas wish list!

Her site is fabulous, as is her information. I've been following her advice for 10 years and my skin and wallet are so much the better!

She has a newsletter too, to keep up with all the latest skin care and makeup news.

I love the book too. My therapist of all people told me about it. I love buying makeup and would fall for everything the advertisements said. Not anymore. this book has paid for itself many times over.
