Best skincare book ever – must read!
Skin Type Solutions by Dr Leslie Baumann. I cannot recommend this book enough! If you haven’t read it, I really encourage you to. She is a cosmetic dermatologist and goes into great depth to determine what skin type people have. Instead of just the usual skin types she goes further into pigmentation, propensity to wrinkle, sensitivity, resistance to damage and stuff like that. There is an extensive quiz at the front and she allots you into one of 16 skin types, and prescribes exactly what skin products you should use (you can choose from several, from cheap products to expensive.) She tells you what ingredients to avoid and which to look for based on your skin type. Its also has lifestyle advice such as supplements and sun protection for your specific skin type. A great book for anyone who wants to help prevent ageing, cure skin problems or just know what products they should be using!
