Description

Get the facts about the biggest beauty and skincare trends from Instagram’s cosmetic chemist Dr. Michelle Wong. Can tweakments do me any harm? Does deodorant cause breast cancer? Does eating chocolate give you acne? Do I need to wear sunscreen every day? What exactly is in my serum? Are collagen supplements the fountain of youth? What's the best way to fade scars? And is "clean beauty" as healthy as it sounds? The Science of Beauty reveals the truth behind the bold marketing claims and viral TikTok trends and tells you what you really need to know about the products you use every day, form good habits, and learn what really works. Decipher the ingredients that make up your favorite shampoo, find out the facts about tweakments and chemical peels, and discover whether beauty brands can ever be truly sustainable. Featuring over 100 frequently asked questions, informative graphics, and backed up by the latest research, cosmetic chemist and science educator Dr. Michelle Wong (a.k.a.

  • GREAT GENERAL SCIENCE BOOK
I’m an esthetician and this is ideal for knowledgeable decor for clients. I find this is a great tool to help teach others. Its not a medical textbook but its a one stop shop for beauty science simplified. It has hair, nails, skin and beauty products. The imagery is BEAUTIFUL AND INFORMATIVE.

  • Good information, but wanted more
I am an esthetician and was hoping to find a book that I could refer my patients to read for those who wanted a reputable source instead of all the nonsense they see on tiktok. I was hoping this book would go more in depth on science explanations/ education. I love Dr. Michelle Wong's you tube channel and was excited for this book. The information that was in there was good, just wanted more from it. The book is filled with alot of decorative graphics, which are pretty, but I'd rather have more text! I would still recommend for a younger person maybe 12- 18. ... show more
