Teen Skincare

I don't understand any of the negative reviews here. I haven't read the author's blog, but of course, the material in the book would be similar unless the author has changed her opinion about something. I think this is a great book. I've been searching Amazon for a comprehensive book on skincare and skincare products, and this is, by far, the best. The author covers skin types, skin problems, skincare routines, where we should be spending the bulk of our skincare budget, skincare myths, and so much more. This is definitely not a book for estheticians or chemists working in the skincare industry. Hopefully, those persons already know everything contained in this book. This is a book for the non-professional, the everyday woman or man. And, it's written in a down-to-earth, easy-to-read style that any educated person can understand. The author is, at no time, crude. She doesn't coddle the big brands; she tells it like it is, but she is never crude about it. For me, at least, she comes off as an honest, truthful person, who would be fun to get to know. This isn't a book about makeup, nor does the author doesn't write much at all about the various skincare devices that are flooding the market today. She writes about skincare: cleansers, toners, serums, moisturizers, etc., and who needs which ones and why. A book on skincare and the products necessary for good skincare is exactly what I wanted. When I'm not performing on stage, which requires heavy makeup, I tend to favor a more natural look and give my skin a rest, but even if I'm only wearing tinted moisturizer, mascara, and lip gloss, my skin is still being nourished by the toners, serums, and other products I've used before I put on my "minimalist's palette" of makeup. You might not agree with everything in this book. I didn't. The author eschews cleansing brushes in favor of washcloths, and I love cleansing brushes, especially silicone cleansing brushes. But that's okay. I don't think any reader is going to agree with everything the author says. The important point, in my case, at least, is that we both agree that the skin has be thoroughly cleansed morning and night, every day. I think anyone who is new to comprehensive skincare and is trying to figure out what cleansers, toners, essences, serums, moisturizers, sleeping masks, etc., to buy and when to use them will benefit enormously from reading this book. I am not new to comprehensive skincare, and I found a lot in the book to help me, a lot I didn't know. I know I'll refer to the book again and again. If you're new to skincare and find the vast array of products overwhelming, and they certainly can be, or if you just want to know more, try this book. I think you'll be delighted.

My book arrived in good condition, as opposed to others I've seen when being shipped from Amazon. The aesthetics of the book are truly one of a kind. The smoothness of the pages, the clarity and easy to read pages are definitely helpful. I wear glasses, but was able to read everything even with a dim light. The contents of the book is superb. Caroline is highly knowledgeable and you can tells its written how she speaks. No extra nonsense, everything was straight to the point. The book is a one stop shop for anyone interested in taking skincare a bit more seriously. She explains in detail about brown skin, skin conditions, how to properly cleanse and treat skin as well as many other aspects such as marketing from skin care brands and even what to do for your skin at your age. The book is literally all encompassing. Dont pass up on this great read. You will definitely enjoy it.

I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this book and it has not disappointed. Caroline is an expert in the industry and she knows her stuff! The book is of such high quality -- beautiful hardcover, so many gorgeous full color photos, signature yellow bookmark and it oozes with information laid out in such a way that you could read it cover to cover if desired or just look in the index for the topic that interests you to easily find what you're looking for. The glossary in the back helps define all those things you never thought you wanted to know and the glossary of Brands was entertaining and educational! This book is for anyone with skin, no matter their age or color and I love the way Caroline has presented the information in her witty, no-nonsense way. 5+++ stars!

A great guide to stepping your skincare game UP!!! For all skin types and shades. She knows her stuff and cares deeply about us all getting put on to living our best skin care lives . As a women of color I have so much respect for her effort and diligence to make this book so inclusive . From how to apply , to treatments , to recommendations etc etc etc . My pages are book marked and post noted. I feel so much more confident and empowered in my skin care decisions and in NO way feel pressured to buy anything as a result . It’s the power and value of being informed that has me all in . Bravo.

OK, I love this book. It has the information you have been searching for. Something new to be learned on every page. Plus I love the layout, the graphics and the very distinctive voice in the writer Caroline Hirons. Yes, she also has a website and Youtube channel. But I still learned even more reading this book. I've already added Vitamin A to my routine. Plus even more. I Who ever thought they could curl up with a book about skincare. But this one is it! If yIf couture interested in the care of your skin. Buy it. Then buy wash clothes to go with it. Your ready to have beautiful skin. Contratulations Caroline on an absolutely fascinating and informative book!

Loved this book. The writing was excellent Lots of product info. Learned alot. Would buy again.

I loved how it's written in a no-nonsense kind of way, Caroline is a genius. This book really covers every single skin type and condition, which is great because it gives you the knowledge you'll need to manage your skincare for the rest of your life (and to deal with any kind of condition you might come across). The product recommendations are also great and the tips on understanding ingredients is amazing and eye-opening. My skin has drastically improved after I changed my routine and followed the advice. I'm recommending this to every friend and family member!

You NEED this book. No seriously, every person needs this book. Those glowy, natural, fresh faced, bright people you see... you can have that skin. Love this book and have gifted it to many friends.

I'm a beauty therapist (retired) and other than my training books this is the best skincare book I've read - and I think I've read them all, I'm a passionate beauty junkie. Caroline's book is uncomplicated but by no means too basic, she covers everything in an honest, chatty way. There's no hype, boring 'my journey' tales, no celebrity name dropping and I bet she knows lots, no pushing of her products and she is realistic that people have budgets. Her enthusiasm, except for wiles is contagious and very easy to follow on cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising and suncare. Different skin types conditions and problems are covered . I bought it on Kindle as too impatient to wait for the book and it is very well set out. Thankyou Caroline and hope you do one on make up one day, once you've got over this book.

After finding Caroline Hirons' on YouTube and Instagram, I knew I wanted to have her book on my bookshelf. What she doesn't know about skincare isn't worth knowing! It's a book absolutely filled with information, which is clear, concise and doesn't talk down to you. The information is broken down into ages/skin conditions/skin concern etc and easily a book you can dip in and out of for when you need advice. There are also recommendations for certain skincare products. This is a must have book for anyone really interested in their skincare and getting the most out of the products they use.

Habe das Buch geliebt und verschlungen. Ein tolles Buch für skincare Beginner. Kann es nur allen empfehlen die sich mit dem Thema auseinander setzen wollen.

Really helpful and user friendly publication. Good for sorting out a healthy skin care routine

I can't sing enough praise for this book. My daughter watched me read this and subsequently stole it from me to indulge herself too! Skin Care is paramount and we all have different gripes, concerns and skin conditions and this book covers them all and offers great, no nonsense advice. What I like is that the explanations aren't tedious and long (I get bored very quickly otherwise!), instead, Caroline raises the topic, gets straight to the point and moves on. Job done. This book will stay in my collection and I honestly believe I will revert back to it time and time again. I have already changed up my skin routine and habits and already notice changes for the better. I couldn't be happier. A book well written, presented and long overdue!
