Buy Facial Rejuvenation Acupressure: Look 10 Years Younger In 10 Min Per Day by Anne Cossé (ISBN: 9782952796026) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Five Stars - great Review: Really poorly produced / published book. - I am sure Ann Cosse knows her stuff, and you can watch her on You Tube for a demonstration, but this book, with regard to quality, is a joke. Seriously, I have never bought a book of such poor printing quality, and such a shame, as I was really looking forward to receiving it as other reviews had been good. However, on opening it up I was just so amazed, and annoyed, that desertcart would even consider producing this and expect people to pay nearly £10 for it. I manage volunteers and do training for them and the quality of my hand outs is far better than this "book", even on a tight budget. It is published by desertcart, and I am just amazed that Ann Cosse allowed this shorter version of one of her other books to be published using her name, or did she have no control on that? Another reviewer said the photographs were clear and easy to follow. No, no, no! They are really faded washed out black and white photocopies, where you can barely make out the points being shown on some pictures. I have never written a negative review before. The spell checking is also poor. Ann is French, I think, so translation may have impacted on the standard of spelling and grammar here. It just looks like some 13 year old cobbled this together as part of a school project? There are other books out there on this subject. I suggest that you do not buy. I am sending mine back ASAP. Shame on you desertcart for producing this, it could have been such a wonderful little book.

Really poorly produced / published book.
I am sure Ann Cosse knows her stuff, and you can watch her on You Tube for a demonstration, but this book, with regard to quality, is a joke.

Good content but vastly over-priced
I bought this book on the strength of the video featuring acupressure for the eyes, which led me to Anne Cosse's website, where the book is shown as much thicker than it is. I was therefore disappointed to find that, although I paid over £13 for the book, it's an extremely slim volume with only 34 pages of actual instruction and it doesn't appear to have been copy-edited. There are several spelling errors: e.g. 'repositionning' with two n's, and 'loose' instead of 'lose'. Plus grammatical errors like:'Now that you master the acupoints...you can go further by roping your lifestyle in.' And sins of omission like:'Alcohol and drugs unleash behaviour and personality.' Unleash what sort of behaviour and personality? The language in this book requires a redraft, yet the reader is being charged top dollar (or £ in my case) for a badly-produced product. I think Anne should sack her proof-reader/copy-editor and start again.

Great book!
I cannot recommend this book enough, I have been telling all my friends about it. The book left me with a greater appreciation about the effects that can be achieved with some simple facial rejuvenation techniques. I was simply amazed with the difference that the 10 minutes of acupressure made to my face and I will be sure to continue using the techniques that I learned from this book to my advantage!

Easy to follow steps, great result!
The author uses a simple language to explain the meaning and practices of making your face look much young than it actually is. All aspects of the face are dealt with in great details. There are instructions on how to exercise the eyes, clear the nasal canal, relieve neck tension as some of the parts which suffer most from stress. The exercises are used in releasing the Qi to flow freely throughout the body. It is a great book for a younger you. This should be a lifestyle and not a one day event.

A holistic approach to facial rejuvenation
Reading Ms. Cosse's book is a rejuvenating experience in itself. It provides a refreshing approach to facial rejuvenation that does not use expensive commercial products. In fact, no products are used at all. Rather, the book explores the use of the ancient healing and therapeutic technique of acupressure, which was first developed by the Chinese 5,000 years ago. Acupressure, when applied to facial rejuvenation, gives benefits that go beyond aesthetic beauty. It releases congested toxins and relieves tension in the facial muscles. It provides a holistic facial massage that soothes the mind, body and spirit. This book is for everyone who would like to break away from a facial regime that involves the use of multiple anti-aging products that might contain ingredients harmful to health and to the environment.

This facial acupressure seems to really work. When I use it before I go to bed my face seems to glow the next morning. I have tried a couple different techniques, face yoga, etc. and they didn't work as well as this. I actually ordered 2 books by accident and was going to send the second one back but my friend came over one night and we did this facial acupressure together and she loved the way it made her look too. Needless to say my friend grabbed the second book and I never ended up returning it!

I have the paperback and the instructions are clear and easy to follow. I did the routine on my own after following the instructions for a few days, so they are easy to remember. I've been doing the routine every second night for a few weeks, they take a long time to complete but for me, it is relaxing and enjoyable. Whilst I did not see any lines disappearing or tighter skin, I can clearly see a glow next morning and my skin feels softer and somewhat firmer at the forehead region but not anywhere else. One big plus here is that it does help with sinuses irritation from allergies. I get seasonal allergies and I followed the acupressure routine for the sinuses and it worked. But you have to be persistent, it won't go away after repeating the pressure for just three times. My condition went away after about half an hour of continues acupressure on all the sinuses points shown in the book. Just relax, listen to a book or watch TV and keep doing it, you'll have a wonderful good night sleep!

Poor quality of print. It's so light and very hard to read.

Propably a useful book,but to my mind it"s rather difficult to locate some points(the pictures are not very good) and I can"t understand the explanation of some rather important for me exercises like Drilling Bamboo.. and others for sinus problems.Tried to look for on the sites of the author-not better

Lol! Tried this for a week. Ran into a co-worker I saw the week before I started the program, & was told I look so well rested & happy! What was I doing? I use many of the routines morning & night while using my face cream. Really is not an inconvenience.
