Skintelligent: What You Really Need to Know to Get Great Skin

 This book presents a science-driven introduction to skincare, challenging the widespread reliance on marketing, influencers, and beauty trends for skin advice. Drawing on years of clinical experience, Dr. Natalia Spierings reframes skincare as a medical issue rather than a cosmetic one, emphasizing that most skin concerns are abnormalities requiring evidence-based understanding, not expensive routines. By explaining how skin truly works, questioning exaggerated ingredient claims, and offering practical guidance on common skin conditions and aesthetic concerns, the book empowers readers to make informed decisions, achieve healthier skin, and avoid unnecessary spending.
