fewer fine lines and no headaches
Fantastic book! I never review books but this one my mother gave me and it's amazing. The exercises help fill out your facial muscles and eliminate the laugh lines I was getting and exercising my forehead muscles took away my late afternoon headaches! Everyone should be doing these exercises!!

Great Results, however...
This book works!! I am so happy when I look in the mirror to see what this has done for me. It has toned and tightened my face. I'm young, but didn't have that muscle toned face I wanted. So it's great, the whole book.

However, only 5% of the book is useful; the exercises.
The remaining 95% is just full of annoying repeative (really, she repeats the same thing in different form in every chapter) And it really does go on, and on, and on, and on. She keeps mentioning why its great you bought the book and how every thing bad will change once you do the exercises. The health and diet section is really stock information. I guess she had to pad it out with content to make it thicker than a magazine.

All in all, buy it. It works, and even though she has her annoying parts (like talking to you like a boyscout: "Now boys, listen to me,...." and tends to babble on, the exercises are amazing!! If you thought you couldn't get a sculpted face, think again!!

Thank Goodness for Carole Maggio!!!
Well Men,

I'm sure a few of you out there have found this title by accident. My advice - order it now!!! It's rare that I ever take time out to rate or comment on a book unless it's changed my life. This one certainly has!!! I'm far from an old man but mother nature was catching up to me. I started searching online for a natural, non-electric, way to stimulate my facial muscles to keep them in shape. Bingo!!! This book has not only shaved a few years off of my age but has all of my friends asking me what's different about me. Took me a few weeks to figure out it was Carole Maggio and Mike Gianelli that have made the difference.

My only challenge to this book is that I've yet to be able to do all the exercises in this book in 10 minutes. It actually takes me about 25 minutes 2 x's a day but, to keep my face in shape - so what. After all, we spend hours and dollars to keep our bodies in shape. The eleven exercises are well illustrated and easy to do. What's a few dollars spent on a book for keeping your face in shape and avoiding plastic surgery worth to you?

IT WORKS FOR ME!!!!
I saw an article in the October issue of FHM magazine about Facebuilder. It was a very positive, upbeat article so I bought the book and started doing the exercises. What an amazing transformation I have performed on myself. I think it's been about 5 weeks now and I can definitely see a difference in my face color and some of the lines I was starting to develop now seem to be less noticable.

When you do these exercises, you can really feel the burn the authors describe. It's the same feeling you get when you max out muscles in your arms, abs or legs, etc. A burn, but a good feeling because you know you are doing something constructive.

I found the book very informative and very interesting. It's well written and easy to follow. Can a video be close behind? I hope so. It would be a wonderful companion to the book.

Intriguingly disturbing with a twist
Maggio combines the symbolism of Hemmingway with the wierdness of Hunter Thompson in the collection of mind provoking stories of the world's madness. At times the symbols disturb your inner soul and grip your sense of reality. It is a work you will either enjoy or hate as you sift through the madness
