Customer Reviews An excellent book on the topic. This book offers a detailed look at the causes and cures for the acne sufferers. The program he recommended is easy enough to follow on a daily basis. He doesn't recommend any of his products but we have to search for ourselves. I think the author doesn't want any conflict of economical interests to offer his product line but spread the true science of curing the acne itself. It took me a long time to search and locate all the products he recommended in this book, but I have gained more knowledge in the process. I have found the acnerx kit from a company that offers all products this author recommends. I like the author' acne cure program and I highly recommend all acne suffers to buy the book and follow his program. It's a good book. You won't regret it. Drugs??? I found a better way...1First off, I have been an acne sufferer for the past 6 years and have tried almost EVERY ointment, scrub, cure, and drug. This includes Several antibiotics and all major name brand "cures" like Proactiv. You need to understand what I learned through years of research: Acne is more than just a skin condition, it is a sign that something is internally wrong with your body. Acne is not the disease itself, it is the symptom! Much of this is related to modern lifestyles and diets. "But I thought diet didn't affect it at all!" you might say. You need to realize that much of what you have been told about acne is in many cases a downright lie. You think your doctor CARES about you when he prescribes just another drug or miracle cure, not giving you 5 minutes of his time? Mine didn't. For more information and what allowed myself and others to overcome this discouraging disease, visit the Acne No More website. About this book This is basically useless. I followed the program to give you "acne free skin" in six weeks for well over six months, and not only was it useless, it may have severely damaged my skin! Over the counter drugs like Benzol Peroxide, Sasilic and Glycolic acid just don't work. Believe me, I found a better way. But it works... Hey, you may think that it works, and that others found it works, but it is only a temporary cure. It worked for ME at first, but the truth is that sure it may help fight bacteria, but it won't cure the cause of acne. A healthy diet and lifestyle are needed to actually see lasting results. I can't tell you how important it is to check out Mike Walden's e-book Acne No More. But that's only if you are really interested in a cure I'm at the mid-way point of the 6 week plan, and overall, have seen great improvement, though, not a cure yet. As a 34 year old woman, I'm gearing up to deal with wrinkles, and combatting the acne I've had since the aget of 15 is just getting exhausting and ridiculous. I appreciate the upfront education on skin care and acne--after asking several dermatologists about the bumps under my skin and gettting no answers, it's refreshing to have this addressed in this book. I applaud Mr. Dubrow's rather rare decision not to create his own skin care line to promote with the book. All products were easy to find in a mid-sized city. At the end of week three, I've experienced great improvement in my skin's clarity and glow. I am still experiencing a few break-outs, but they clear up quite quickly. When I started the program, I was sure that I'd experience terrible dryness as the combinations of all of these chemicals seemed that it would be harsh on the skin. But to my surprise, I've been amazed to find that I can actually wear a solution of Benzyol Perioxide to bed with no moisturizer and my skin looks good in the morning after my Salicylic Acid treatment. I must admit that I skip the Glycolic Acid if my skin feels tight, but I find my skin is adjusting to this. Be sure to buy quality sunscreen and wear it, as you will notice your skin is smoother, but also thinner. One tip: I found that the program seems to work better if I am generous with the amount of each chemical I use and mix it well with an equal amount of water to apply it like a medium thick masque. My working theory is the water helps to carry the chemicals into the skin (I dry my face after rinsing between products). Don't be stingy, if you are going to try this, do it right, so you know if it will work for you. My products: AM:Neutrogena Rapid Clear(tm) Acne Defense Face Lotion 2% Salicylic AcidPeter Thomas Roth 10% Glycolic Acid Clarifying Gel(my personal wrinkle-prevention hydrating regime: Skinceuticals Feric C+E serum, B5 gel, and moisturizer; followed with Obagi sunscreen 35 SPF) PM:Neutrogena Rapid Clear(tm) Acne Defense Face Lotion 2% Salicylic AcidZapzyt 10% Benzyol Perioxide Gel + iceLeave on BP Gel overnight One other note: be sure to use a good eye moisturizer as this skin is the thinnest, and I've found that, although I avoid my eye area, I need to be quite viligent not to end up with a dry, puffy eye area. I have hopes that another 3-4 weeks on the program may actually clear up the bumps under my skin and my acne. I'm seeing enough progress to be optimistic. Lost one star due to the book's instructions, which are not well organized. I thank the other poster who spelled out the AM & PM routine here on Amazon. If Mr. Dubrow re-issues this book, I hope he clarifies his plan and does some randomized studies to bring more validity to the science behind his assertions. Good luck!
