BRINGS HIS EASY AND EFFECTIVE
METHODS FOR HEALTHY, BEAUTIFUL SKIN TO YOU.
For years Dr. BArney Kenet has been helping people bring out the best in their skin. Now his sensible and medically proven skin care system can help you improve and enhance your looks with long-lasting results.
Dry? Oily? Combination? How to Wash Your Face debunks conventional skin typing and helps consumers understand the "why" of their skin, emphasizing smart skin maintenance. Dr. Kent also tells you everything you need to know when you visit the drugstore, the makeup counter, the beauty salon and the dermatologist's office. With questionaires, brand-name product evaluation and patients' intimate and inspiring stories, How to Wash Your Face is the antidote to frustrating hit-or-miss retail remedies. You will learn:
- The hidden dangers of makeup
- The three most effective treatments for aging skin
- The most common causes of itchy skin and how to alleviate them
- How to protect your skin from the sun
- Who should never get a facial and why
- How food and fragrances can upset your skin and how to avoid these allergies
- The best remedies for oily hair, dandruff and other common hair problems

Patients come to me wanting to know more about their skin. It is a subject that can confuse even the most intelligent person because of the information and misinformation that barrages us every day.
My purpose in writing this book is to help you understand how your skin works, why it looks the way it does and what you can do to improve it, regardless of your age. There are a lot of books available by eminent skin specialists who claim they have the answer to looking young. It's tempting to think there is truly only one way to take care of all your skin problems. But the truth is, no single procedure, no one cream can do everything for everyone. Moreover, all the high-tech treatments and all the money in the world cannot replace what you must do for yourself every day at home. That's where it begins.
In order for you to be effective in caring for your skin, I have created a Skin Profile system. Instead of listing skin by "types," I use the phrase Skin Profile. I specifically chose the word "profile" because of its definition: "an analysis of the history and status of a process or relationship." To me, this is precisely how your skin should be viewed. Your personal Skin Profile is more than a category or type. It is really a process -- a dynamic, fluid and ongoing event. How your skin looks depends on the inner workings of your body, your state of mind, your environment and your willingness to do all you can to improve these interdependent factors. Of course, heredity plays a big role as well, but you can work with the genes that nature gave you to maximize your personal best.
You will be learning whether your skin responds and reacts most strongly to internal forces or external ones. For example, hormonally reactive skin responds to the chemical changes within your body that ebb and flow at various levels, day to day, month to month, year to year. Individuals with stress-reactive skin notice that variable emotions change the appearance of their skin more than anything else.
Other readers will discover that the outside world leaves its mark on their skin. Persons with environmentally sensitive skin experience irritation, rashes, breakouts and other problems when their skin comes in contact with perfumes, dyes and cosmetic ingredients, for example. I will show you how to eliminate irritants and allergens while maintaining a skin care regimen that will bring out the best in your skin. The environment can harm your skin over the long run as well. Too much sun and wind as well as other habits like smoking result in overexposed skin. Finally, I will briefly discuss how to keep hearty skin looking good. People with Hearty Skin look younger than people of the same age and find that using basic inexpensive products works well.
My approach to skin care has always been to ask my patients in-depth questions during each visit. Learning everything about a person makes caring for his or her skin easier. When you read this book, you will be treated like one of my patients. I will ask you many questions -- not just about your skin but about who you are and how you live. Your answers will provide the information that determines how best to care for your skin.
At first you may wonder about the relevance of certain questions when it comes to treating your skin. However, you will soon see that all the answers have a bearing on you, your lifestyle, your health and, by def-inition, your skin.
With that analysis complete, your daily skin care routine will become much simpler. I am committed to saving you time, money and effort. I want to support you in your quest to look great without a doctor's help and without unneeded risk to your well-being.
You will find that I have recommended a number of specific brand-name products. My choices are dependent on my personal experience, patients' suggestions and a review of the ingredients in the product. More than one product is given in each category to give you an opportunity to purchase items at a drugstore for usually under $20 or at a department store for usually over $20. The order in which the product is listed does not indicate preference. I have made an effort to choose items from a variety of sources. I have also limited my list to widely available national brands made by companies that have a long history of standing behind their products.
This book covers all there is to know about skin care. It also helps you decide how to select a doctor (if you choose to see one) who suits your needs.
After you have finished this book, I am sure you will never think about your skin in the same way again. I am also sure that your skin will look and feel better. People will notice, but, more important, you will too.

Shopbeschreibung
With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.…
