Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is a great book if you are interested in getting into the skincare business or just want to learn a little more about it. The only major error in this book is, the term (pore) is used ALOT in place of the term (follicle), this would not be a problem if you are an esthetician and know the difference...
