AnnotationMaintaining a healthy appearance and good hygiene is an important factor in a person's sense of well-being. The author offers practical advice and describes simple procedures on skin-care and applying cosmetics. The aim is to introduce techniques that avoid damaging treatments and the over-use of harmful products that often cause unwanted skin, nail and hair problems. Other chapters cover: fingernail and toenail disorders, manicures and pedicures; herbal remedies and essential oils; hair removal methods for women; and nutrition and health. (RH).
