Review

“The key to looking younger - as I have learned from Dr. Wu - isn't copious amounts of Botox or even plastic surgery, it's a diet that will improve your skin from the inside out, as her Feed Your Face Diet has done for me. My skin looks radiant, smooth, and ten years younger.” ―Maria Bello, actress

Jessica Wu, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and an Assistant Clinical Professor at USC Medical School, is trusted by some of Hollywood's most famous faces, including big-screen beauties like Katherine Heigl and Maria Bello. Now, with her breakthrough new book, FEED YOUR FACE, she's changing the way women everywhere think about caring for their skin—no needles, creams, or prescriptions required.

After graduating from Harvard Medical School and opening her practice in Los Angeles, it became clear to Dr. Wu that—contrary to popular opinion—certain foods had a major effect on the look and feel of her patients' skin. Combining her own findings with the latest research, she developed the FEED YOUR FACE Diet, a practical, easy-to-use, 28-day diet plan that will banish blemishes, wipe out wrinkles, and help you get back in your skinny jeans.

When she's not writing, researching (or raiding someone's refrigerator), Dr. Wu is dishing up advice as the Skin and Beauty Expert on EverydayHealth.com and on her daily e-Newsletter (with more than 250,000 loyal readers). She is a frequent medical expert on The Doctors, and has appeared on Good Morning America, Entertainment Tonight, E! Entertainment Television, FOX News, and EXTRA. Dr. Wu is also a go-to beauty expert for editors at the New York Times, People, Elle, O: The Oprah Magazine, Glamour, Good Housekeeping, Marie Claire, Women's Health, and Women's Wear Daily.

5.0 out of 5 stars An easy read that is very informative
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2012

A snippet here and a snippet there. This is what we all do. Gather information from this magazine and that website. Wouldn't it be great if there was a book that contained it all? That's what I feel Dr. Wu does for skincare.

I'm the type of person who will research something like acne, the different types, the causes, and then each specific cause. I like to understand something all the way down to the root of the problem, I don't want to know just about the different types of solutions I can try. Dr. Wu explains things down to the nitty-gritty, and with flair.

I received the book yesterday and have already blasted through 3 chapters, which now have been highlighted and tabbed for future reference. I'm surprised at how many pages I've already tagged! Her writing is somewhat bloggy - like you're talking to one of your geeky and trendy friends. Whilst doing a great job including details and explaining things like the different layers of skin and different studies in an easy to understand manner, she surprises you by giving examples of skin problems experienced by well known celebrities as well as fun girlish comparisons to high-end fashion brands. It creates an interesting read!

This book is helpful to both women and men, but some of the analogies she uses refer to things that only women experience. There aren't many of them, so if you're a guy looking for a good skincare book, this is still a great choice.

I highly recommend reading the pages available in the "Look Inside" feature. You'll get a good sense of the content and flow of the book. More pages than usual are offered for your sampling, so take advantage of it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Superb book, plenty of great tips, and a very smooth read.
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2015

Dr. Jessica Wu definitely makes reading her book a breeze by keeping the audience engaged and offering some savvy tips.

About two years ago I chose to really turn my life around and start to exercise, eat a well balanced and nutritionally dense diet, and overall just take care of myself.

I got this book because before I decided to turn my life around, I was breaking out very frequently, and often had cystic acne or painful pimples all over my face, which started since I was about 14 (I'm almost 20 now). Not only was this a real confidence killer but it was also painful. I've read in many places (years ago) that diet has nothing to do with skin health and that it's best to treat breakouts with medication. Wrong, and wrong (well mostly). When I turned 16 I had visited my second dermatologist (the first was a money vacuum and very rude). He had recommended I go on Doxycycline and try a topical treatment along with it. Although my face cleared up very quickly and I had become fairly more confident with myself, I had found myself dependent on the medication to keep myself clear, which was ridiculous because who the heck at 16 wants to take an antibiotic a day for a long period of time? Anyways, a year in (when I turned 17), I started to become greatly intrigued by nutrition and health (which is when I also found this book). I decided to go to my dermatologist for one last time (really nice guy though, not to discredit him) and he wanted to put me on Accutane. I signed the form but something told me I should not do it. I didn't. I went home and read about the medication and went on forums for countless hours. I didn't want to be destructive to my health anymore (needless to say I never went back to the dermatologist). I picked up this book and wow was it great! I had already started to cut out a lot of crap from my diet, but never did I consider dairy could also be a large contributor to my breakouts. Anyways, didn't just get this book because of my breakouts, also got it because it's full of great tips and dietary information (still do your research, although Dr. Wu does a great job in backing herself up). For example, Lycopene helps act as an extra protection from sunburn. (Haven't gotten sunburned since in the Summer)

Back to the acne anyways, so although I did not follow the diet outlined in the book (I'm a college student on a budget and the amount I attribute to my health and fitness which isn't sucked up by tuition I tend to use to buy plant-derived protein and vegetables). Anyways, there is so much crap that we consume that we're not aware the effects of. High Corn Fructose Syrup (haven't had soda in over 10 years so I didn't ever think of researching the ingredient) being one of them, fillers, artificial soy, and the list goes on and on. Although this book was only one of my many resources in becoming a health nut, I really appreciate Dr. Wu's recommendations and great blog-style writing.

Needless to say, after I cut out most dairy from diet, exercised regularly for two years now, and really started taking care of myself my skin is a lot more clear, I'm not dependent on any medication, I rarely ever get sick, I don't feel tired, and I feel generally great all the time (haven't had a stomach ache or headache in years).

I definitely recommend this book as a stepping stone, especially if you have skin issues (not just acne; eczema, rosacea, etc...). Never did this book ever feel like an advertisement to me either (as Dr. Wu apparently has a whole line of products). I agree with about 90% of everything she details, and all of it is backed up by research.

Thanks for reading!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very well written, thoughtful with some great info

As a physician, I'm always interested in reading books by other doctors. Dr. Jessica Wu is a prominent celebrity dermatologist based in Beverly Hills. I've seen her on several television programs, and thought I'd pick up this book. Dr. Wu basically gives a very detailed description of how you can look younger, healthier, and improve your skin by changing what you eat. She explains the glycemic index, and how eating foods too high in sugar can result in inflammation, leading to acne, dry skin, and wrinkles. Throughout the book she includes celebrity stories, and how certain celebs have improved their complexion and appearance by following certain dietary guidelines.

This book is complete, well-written, entertaining, and chock-full of useful information with a scientific basis. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and am going to rethink how I eat as I continue to get older.

If you enjoy this book, I recommend that you consider  7 Years Younger: The Revolutionary 7-Week Anti-Aging Plan , a recent best-seller by the editors of Good Housekeeping. It's an information-packed reference full of tips to look younger, be healthier, and reduce aging. It's very easy to read, and a great resource.

I also recommend Dr. Jennifer Ashton's  Your Body Beautiful: Clockstopping Secrets to Staying Healthy, Strong, and Sexy in Your 30s, 40s, and Beyond . It's a great guide for my women patients to be healthier, look better, and reduce their risk of age-related medical problems. Very well-written, scientifically and medically supported information.

Me gusta como explica las cosas, son ideas sencillas que podemos introducir en nuestro día a día para sentirnos mejor con nosotros mismos. Si estamos bien por dentro eso se nota por fuera, así de simple.
En el libro hay muchas explicaciones distintas, imágenes e ideas.
El libro es en inglés y creo que puede entenderse todo muy bien si cuentas con un nivel intermedio.
