“Louisa Maccan-Graves is rapidly becoming the Martha Stewart of beauty and I predict her book will soon become the ‘bible of beauty’ for all appearance-conscious women (and many men as well). One good look at this remarkable woman’s skin, face, neck and hands, and you’ll gladly shell out the price of this book to learn her secrets. It contains a wealth of useful and practical information. It is extremely well-organized and is written in a no-nonsense, easy-to-follow style.”
F. A. Cord, MD
“Hollywood Beauty Secrets: Remedies to the Rescue is a concise insight to the personal care world of a career professional model. Louisa’s book takes you through core issues of personal appearance, wellness, anti-aging skin care and her secrets to access affordable and effective products and rejuvenating therapies. Everyone, men included, may benefit with her secrets to success! Hollywood Beauty Secrets is an important work for all aesthetic medicine and surgery professionals to recommend for their clients.”
R. S. Jennings, MD
“A great book, full of insightful tips. Not surprising, from a woman who not only looks years younger th an her age, but maintains her own health so carefully and well.”
C. Ott, MD
“Being a make-up artist in the film industry, I try hundreds of products, but nothing has hydrated and smoothed my skin the moisturizer and the Microdermabrasion Scrub Louisa suggest in her book. Within two days of using them, I saw immediate results!! My skin felt smooth, moist, firm and lines around my eyes softened. Louisa has certainly uncovered amazing skin care products that work far better than any expensive or hyped product on the market.”
Linda V., Hollywood Make-up Artist
“Louisa is considered an anomaly in fiercely competitive Hollywood where most women will never reveal their beauty secrets.”
