Clear Skin: Organic Action Plan for Acne
I thought there would be a lot more natural recipes than there are, but the book was great overall.

I don’t know if I’ve ever read a book with so many typos in it! If you care at all about grammar and spelling, this book will bother you. It contains some good information, but most of it is pretty much common sense. The argues that you should stay away from sugar and basically eat like a diabetic. She makes a good argument for this, but I’m not sure how much proof backs up her claims. The overall theme is take care of your mental and physical health and your skin will be better. Good points, but probably not worth more than $10.

This is scary but in a good way. It explains how to properly care for your skin. You realize how bad some of things for skin are. My daughter calls me from health food store for me to refer to this book before she purchases anything. My mother-in-law liked it too.

Gabriel has lots of good information, much of it new to me (even though I’m a rabid consumer of beauty/nutrition news). However, she is not a native English speaker and whoever was supposed to edit/proof her book did a terrible, terrible job. I found the typos and strange sentence structures distracting. It’s not a problem on every page, though.

I bought this book along Julie Gabriel’s recent book, The Green Beauty Guide, and I must admit: this one is truly amazing and deserves much more attention! As a former acne sufferer, Julie is very focused on natural treatment strategies for acne-prone skin.
What’s really great, she offers detailed skincare plans for each group of people who may have acne: teenagers, adult women, men, people with dark and mature skin, even pregnant women!
I enjoyed the homemade recipes, too. I used the book to custom-make my own acne regimen, and I already see the improvement, only after a week of sticking to it.
