The Mind-Beauty Connection

Renée Raudman's understated enthusiasm for the author's ideas gains momentum as she delivers this outstanding skin-care guide. Though the book's approach and range of information have their own power, Raudman's performance is a wonderful example of how a narrator can sell a well-crafted lesson through confidence, relaxed vocal authority, and genuine good wishes for listeners. The book takes a whole-person approach to skin care. It involves understanding one's emotional patterns, raising expectations for the appearance of one's skin, and putting it all into practice with the author's individualized nine-day rejuvenation plan. This encyclopedia of skin-care knowledge is delivered so convincingly that few will be able to ignore its invitation and promise. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
