Purchase options and add-ons

If you had a heart attack would you go to a personal trainer to treat your chest pain? If you had cancer would you seek treatment from a journalist who reviews chemotherapy drugs? No you wouldn't. You would go to a cardiologist or an oncologist - an expert with vast clinical experience and knowledge. So why do we go to a beauty counter to deal with our skin problems? Or get skincare advice from beauty bloggers or facialists via Instagram or YouTube?

Consultant Dermatologist Dr Natalia Spierings is here to shake things up! Drawing on a decade of work helping thousands of people achieve great skin, she will empower you to navigate the confusing world of skincare so you never get fooled into buying hundreds of pounds of skincare products again. If you have a problem with your skin - whether it is pimples, pigmentation, overly dry skin, large pores or whatever - it is a skin abnormality and cannot and will not be corrected with a three-step skincare regime you buy at a department store.

Think of this book as your personal consultation with Dr Spierings and let her give you the information you need to start getting the best from your skincare - without hurting your wallet!

    This book has helped me to understand my skin and the products we really need (or don't need!).

    I have found it difficult over the years to navigate information about skincare, but this book has summarised the evidence clearly and showed me how less is best, and to keep things simple.

    This will save you a fortune & help your skin hugely if you let it.

    I've been following the overnight for only 4 nights & my skin is glowing, my under eye bags - decreased, wrinkles - less visible.
    I'm 53, 54 soon with oily mature skin - my eyes are / were driest - this method has made a visble difference to my puffy, deep wrinkled eyes in just days.

    Get this book - it will save you confusion & a fortune.

    For oily skin - just use vaseline on dry or damp skin.
    For dry skin - moisturise and then use vaseline.
    Would be my only recommendations.

    But - to understand why & why the skin industry is a fraud - read the book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A revelation !
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 September 2022

    Well, what an amazing book! I am now 44 and wish I had this information to hand when I was going through the misery of acne from about the age of 17 and then on and off until I was 35. It was just awful and I wish I had this information. Like many people, I bought the astringent products in the hope they would dry out my spots not realising that many of the products would have been making my spots worse!
    I am also so pleased I have this book to hand ready in case my children experience acne when they are older. My poor mum was always helpless when it came to trying to help me sort out my skin and I remember times when I would be out shopping with her and tell her I wanted to go home because I felt people were staring at my skin. I was helped by Roaccutane in the end which was prescribed by a dermatologist. The guidance in this book is invaluable and it makes you watch skincare (or should that be "Big skincare") adverts in a whole new light. When Eva Longoria spouts "Hyaluronic acid" at you from the TV in future, you will know what guff the advert is because Hyaluronic acid is only effective if injected into the skin as the molecules are too big to permeate the skin if applied topically (get me!). It has also made me realise how ageing the sun is so I am being more sun conscious too. This was such an interesting book and will be firmly remaining on my bookshelf for future reference.

    This is my bible, it's an excellent read, i read it cover to cover over a 3 day period.
    If you're serious about learning, from a medical Consultant Dermatologist and not a beauty trained dermatologist THIS book is for you.
    She's NOT in paid partnerships and is very blunt and straight talking - if you want to be advised, and sold, specific products - she doesn't do that, she doesn't recommend anything - it's all about the facts.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Objective overview of skin care
    Reviewed in the United States on 18 April 2023
    Verified Purchase
    What I love about this book is the approach it takes to discuss skin care. It looks at the scientific literature and makes conclusions using only studies that are peer-reviewed and not funded by what it calls Big Skincare. So basically, any study that is funded by the company that created the skin care product is dismissed because of inherent biases that can occur. I mean, what company will report its $100 moisturizer does not "help reduce fine lines"?

    What you get is straight forward and simple advice on what works and what doesn't when it comes to skin care. No need for over complicated skin care routines or expensive products. Keeping short, simple, and affordable goes a long way.

    And there's plenty of discussion about skin care issues and the best way to address them. And again, the approach is to look at the scientific literature and see what true clinical studies say works best.

    Dr. Natalia has written this book in hopes of helping us see that great skin is due to consistency and not necessarily quantity! Not only she takes the pressure off but explains what and how things affect your skin and the solutions that have science to back them up! A reminder that less is more! Thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend 100%.

    She almost had me convinced with her constant bashing of literally any kind of skincare (masks, face rolling, serums etc) until she completely poo-pooed red light therapy. I have never seen such a dramatic and fast improvement in my skin as with that device and so have wuite a few of my aging fruends....she called it a "scam". Maybe she's salty bc she didn't invent it and profiting from it? Some of these game changing skin aging tricks and tools are remarkable and i know this first hand.. Stem cells and collagen have been well worth the money fpr me! but this book was a waste of time and money bc she lost all my confidence making blanket bogus claims.
