Like many people, author Helen Markham sufferers from dry skin. Her search for a long lasting remedy to this problem is what lead to her writing this comprehensive guide to natural and long lasting solutions to the problem.  Her journey through expensive proprietary brands is well documented in the introduction, and then she proceeds to examine how natural ingredients can do a better job, at a fraction of the cost.I learned quite a lot about skin and how not to look after it from this informative and well written guide. As a Physiology graduate, much of it made perfect sense. The healing power of nature is the natural order of things, after all.  The damage that the UV rays in sunlight can cause to the skin is highlighted as the major problem facing us today, because when we go out in light that we perhaps would not consider to be dangerous, our skin is still being attacked and very few of us think to wear protective cream as an everyday activity.  The booklet then examines some specific vegetable and fruit oils, listing some helpful recipes for their use as skin creams.  There's a helpful section all about older more mature skin,  and interesting information about free radicals and vitamins.A useful little book, and at a reasonable price like this, it might be worth its weight in gold...as far as your skin is concerned, anyway.
