Great Esthetician Book

I Wish I Had Discovered This Book Years Ago!
Format: Hardcover
I found out about this book listening to The Karen Hunter Show (Channel 126 on Sirius XM 3:00 - 6:00 PM and YouTube). It provides in depth information, details, and thorough product reviews for Black skin. I had dry, dull looking skin and frequent breakouts. The recommended products have cleared and hydrated my skin to the point I can "wake up like this". Now it looks like it did in my 30s. I highly recommend this book for melaninated women, men, and children for undertstanding our skin! ... show more

Black God Science

Black skin is God’s gift to humanity, and primary reason humanity exist. Without melanin, humanity would not have made it out of Africa. WeBlack People should be reminded every time they see black skin, that it is part of the story of humanity, and the Creator wanted our skin to be black. Our skin is part of the Black God Science, since we were created in God’s image.This book provides valuable information about taking care of our gift from the Creator and how skin is a part of our temple and is an incredible organ, so we need to take care of it. ... show more
