Each chapter is clearly laid out, delves in detail both informative and entertaining (see diagram: skin cells with parachutes!), then reviews what you’ve just read with a summarizing page and a personal take from each of the authors (further emphasizing their point that every individual’s approach to skincare is unique). I enjoyed how all of the lists, pictures, and tables emphasized the key points per section and helped me retain the information. Not only that, the chemists are aware of how the skincare industry markets their products, and help explain what you should look for in ingredients lists or packaging formats, in order to judge actual efficacy vs just marketing. For example, I knew before reading this book that vitamin C is a good addition to my skincare regimen and just looked for “vitamin C serums” when shopping - little did I know that there is a whole host of vitamin C derivatives that have different benefits (and in one case as the authors put it bluntly, “Kinda useless”). Their honest take extends to trends that are in vogue, too - just when I casually remembered a post from social media of someone touting a product or skincare tool, sure enough I found a blurb explaining what it was designed for, followed by guidance and recommendations. Basically, this book makes you want to understand what you’re doing to your face and do better! I found myself grabbing the products in my skincare regimen to compare the ingredient list against the explanations in the chapters to understand what and why things are in there. I was also inspired to improve my moisturizing regimen and be more conscious to adjust it when I’ve been doing the same thing every day - with the days getting hotter and drier, I should probably look to introduce some emollients in my moisturizing step. I can keep going back to this book as a reference when I want to tackle a problem with my skin or try something new to improve my anti-aging regimen. Review: THE BEST BEGINNERS BOOK! - I love everything about the education strategy in this book. From the pictures detailing how the skin works and what it needs to the humor behind explaining every topic. This book is a masterpiece which anyone interested in understanding a bit more about their skin, skin care world and overall understanding on marketing codes to up-sale you products that have no true benefits or education to your own specific skin needs well this is the book you need to read! As a person who struggled with hormonal/ after pregnancy acne as a young mom I highly recommend this book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0DB5X83LQ | | Best Sellers Rank | #70,568 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #37 in Grooming & Style #48 in Health, Mind & Body Reference #190 in Biology (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (735) | | Dimensions | 6.75 x 1 x 8.5 inches | | Edition | Expanded | | ISBN-10 | 888674241A | | ISBN-13 | 979-8886742411 | | Item Weight | 1.8 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 240 pages | | Publication date | December 10, 2024 | | Publisher | Weldon Owen | ## Images ![Skincare Decoded: Revised and Expanded: The Practical Guide to Beautiful Skin - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71rAcv3SGKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent reference that encourages you to understand your skin and the skincare industry! *by A***C on March 26, 2021* This book is packed with information and yet easy to read.
