Being someone whom has tried a cleanse, tone, moisturize way of life everyday mixed up at times with a swipe of cotton pads with micellar water on or a hasty face wipe if not a flannel and water over my face for years now, this book really has opened my eyes to how much is involved in skin and caring properly for it.
After all, skin is our largest organ essentially and goes through a lot everyday and not just enduring cuts and bruises when they happen as we're reminded in this book, our skin constantly grows, changes and needs caring for.
With plenty of amazing scientific facts about skin and detailed diagrams to show us our skin's make up, we learn about skin types, colours and their differences and what each requires for optimum health. There's concise guides for what skin types prefer what products or just how pampering yourself can pay off for mental and physical health and happiness.
I liked how the author shared their on experiences of skin troubles such as acne and throughout the book talked about the mental health effects skin issues can bring be it acne, aging or stretch marks etc loads of us have the same common issues and need to stop judging others around us or worry what they think of us we are all doing our best but we can of course use the right products and have a healthy diet to help too!
We may take skin for granted but it's certainly been waiting for a book on the market to draw us to finding out what we should do for it sooner rather than later. I liked how the book is like a friend, there to guide, non judging where we may have gone wrong before but is comforting and busts the myths behind beauty industry jargon surrounding skin care.
Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this for them!
