 Buy this book!!!!Mar 12, 2010
I am so thrilled with the results of this book. Not only are you told and shown the exercises, but they really work. How refreshing to find something to make me look and feel fantastic!I am a true believer in this method of face lifting. I look 20 years younger, by working my facial muscles. I didn't know I could actually lift without plastic surgery! What a find!

This book is a keeper!Feb 14, 2010
I have been using Carole Maggio's Facercise program for 13 years now. I am more than pleased with the results I have been able to achieve with Facercise. I cannot imagine how my face would have aged without it! In fact, that's a pretty scary thought! The new revised book is great because it not only describes the exercises in detail, it contains 8 advanced exercises for those areas of the face that might require additional attention. Carole also discusses how other things affect the skin, such as diet, supplements, skincare, and offers many helpful tips. Hers is a more comprehensive approach to create a more youthful, toned and balanced face. I found the book to be inspirational and motivating as well. Sometimes you pick up a book and say ... oh this will never work for me and put it down. Carole's book is written in such a way, I didn't want to put it down! Since I began using the Facercise program, I have been able to feel more confident knowing I look my personal best. Do I look 25 again? No, but that isn't the point! I want to look the best 53 I can look....not look 20 or more years younger! I know her technique has allowed me to keep my face looking toned, lifted and glowing. Her product line is awesome and her facial louffas exfoliate, tone tighten and lift the skin. Still, she keeps continuing to improve her technique & recently introduced her newest DVD, the Ultimate Facercise. It is a very detailed DVD and I would highly recommend it! I still enjoy having this book though because I often refer back to things she wrote or stories she related to keep me motivated and inspired in a way that a DVD cannot. So, overall I would say the book is a must have! I say thumbs up to Facercise!!!

Another "A"Oct 11, 2009
My husband noticed the difference in 6 days, and he did not know what I was doing. We went out to dinner one night after 6 days of my doing the facercises and he said "What ever you've been doing to your face is working". How about that?

 Me and my Face...Sep 12, 2009
Hello, I bought this book about a month ago. I've been doing the exercises, well actually, only 2 of them out of the many provided. Everything is fine. I do sometimes wish I bought a video version as the pictures and words do what they can but still leave it up to you to figure out exactly how to properly do the exercises. I guess a video or even someone in person would be most helpful but that is not a books fault. So with that said, I don't regret my purchase and the book gets 4 stars. Why not 5? I guess the reason it wasn't a complete home run is because honestly I think they could have provided a CD with the facial exercises that you can play on your computer to actually see these exercises in action. This way they can continue to sell the DVD but with the book version at least you get something to see these exercises. Again, 4 stars hopefully tells you guys...don't refrain from buying the book..it is well done, well put together, no regrets. With the book review out of the way, I know some of you are wanting to know how effective all this is so that is the next paragraph.
One day (well many days) I looked at myself in the mirror and specifically looked at my face and just hated what I saw. It was round and since I don't have hair...I just hated the way I looked. If I opened my mouth and my face was more oval then I guess I could stand the way I looked a little but I can't go through life with my mouth open. So I looked up a few things on the internet. There is facial surgery but a part of me said GOD gave me this face...I should not change it but I should accept it and love it. So then Carole's book cross my Internet surfing path and I purchased this book from Amazon. I narrowed it down to two exercises I do in the morning (I think I am supposed to do them 2 twice a day..but I have been getting lazy and only doing it in the morning now). I've modified them a little...added a few things of my own...and basically have been doing them now for about a month. My face hurts (that is good) and feels weirdly different. I feel like blood flowing through my face..it feels alive kind of. Basically it feels good like you do when you have a great workout.
I'm almost aware of my jaw now something I forgot I even had because heck I can't see it. Anyway, has it changed? I don't know...probably not...its only been a month but then again, I see myself every morning so I wouldn't notice anyway. I think the book tells you have to do them daily twice a day for 8-12 weeks before results come.
But mostly I think I can look at myself and not feel disgusted anymore. Maybe its because I'm doing something for myself, maybe its because I'm not changing what GOD has given me via surgery. And exercising is a natural thing our body wants us to do and yet we never do it to our face...now you will with this book. So after 2 months even if nothing changes on my face (I seriously doubt my face is going to go from round to oval) at least I have some internal face confidence that it being round doesn't bother me much anymore.
So I guess I'm making it now and I have to tell you this book as helped me. I'm happy to own it. I actually even once looked at myself in the bathroom mirror at work and actually liked what I saw (only once...but hey it was once right?) So get the book first. If you find it difficult to understand the exercises via print...then later on put in an order for the DVD as they are expensive.
Thank you.

It really works!!Sep 04, 2009
I bought the book and the DVDs of Carole Maggio one month ago and I've practised for 11 minutes twice a day. I have improved my face very much, specially my eyes. It's really easy and fun to do it, so I recommend it to everybody!! You can see the effects very fast. It's amazing!
