*You want your problem skin GONE! You want to pick your way through the overwhelming choice of products and ingredients! Ingeborg van Lotringen, top beauty-industry watchdog and journalist, provides the answers. She knows the good, the bad, and what the beauty industry doesn’t necessarily tell you. For more than twenty years, she’s been testing and researching every possible skincare product and treatment.
Put down that expensive little jar with its sparkling top. Great Skin is about finding skincare tailored to you. Your skin is unique and has its own special requirements. With Ingeborg, you’ll become your own expert and soon pick products like a pro so that your skin will look brighter and healthier — for life.
I would like to start of by saying I’ve done a lot of skincare research and spent a worryingly amount of hours on YouTube watching skincare videos and yet this was still extremely useful to me.
THIS IS THE BOOK I WISH I HAD AS A TEENAGER.
My mum got me this for Christmas because she liked the fact it looked easy to follow and written by someone who has been in the beauty industry for a long time.
It was incredibly well written, easy to follow and layout was really well done. There is NO fluff, it’s to the point and tells you what’s what both fact and maybe a little mention of the authors experience or opinion. It had tons of fantastic recommendations for every type of skin. I, myself, have a weird combo skin type that’s eczema prone but I get some annoying spots and scaring, but I want to gift this book to my friend who gets bad acne and my other friend who struggles with skin texture.
I have tons of post it notes throughout as I will continue to use this as a guideline going forward. A must buy for newbies and skin lovers.
