Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was a quintessential L. A. girl for the first twenty-one years of my life. I had a year-round tan, blond highlights, and lived in flip-flops. I wore cutoff shorts from Abercrombie Fitch and sipped on vanilla milkshakes with my burger and fries. #2 I grew up in a Korean household in California, and I straddled both cultures. I spoke English at school, but Korean at home. I was determined to blaze my own trail, and I didn’t care about skin care. With time on my side, I put my money toward the latest it perfume instead. #3 I had made the most of living my teenage years in California, but as a young adult, I was bored with the beach and burgers existence. I decided to get out of there and go to college. #4 I was offered a job in Seoul, and after college, I moved there. I was warned that Seoul was fast-paced and overly competitive, but I was convinced that the years I spent in Seoul would be the best of my life.

Book Description
This “seriously entertaining book” explores the skin in its multifaceted physical, psychological, and social aspects (Times, UK). Providing a cover for our delicate bodies, the skin is our largest and fastest-growing organ. We see it, touch it, and live in it every day. It is a habitat for a mesmerizingly complex world of micro-organisms and physical functions that are vital to our health and survival. One of the first things people see about us, skin is also crucial to our sense of identity. And yet much about it is largely unknown to us. With rigorous research and lucid prose, Monty Lyman explores our outer surface through the lenses of science, sociology, and history. He covers topics as diverse as the mechanics and magic of touch (how much goes on in the simple act of taking keys out of a pocket and unlocking a door is astounding), the close connection between the skin and the gut, what happens instantly when one gets a paper cut, and how a midnight snack can lead to sunburn. The Remarkable Life of the Skin takes readers on a journey across our most underrated and unexplored organ. It reveals how our skin is far stranger, more wondrous, and more complex than we have ever imagined.

Book Description
A fascinating journey through history and culture, examining how makeup affects self-empowerment, how people have used it to define (and defy) their roles in society, and why we all need to care There is a history and a cultural significance that comes with wearing cat-eye-inspired liner or a bold red lip, one that many women feel to this day, even if we don’t realize exactly why. Increasingly, people of all genders are wrestling with what it means to be a woman living in a patriarchy, and part of that is how looking like a woman—whatever that means—affects people’s real lives. Through the stories of famous women like Cleopatra, Empress Wu, Madam C. J. Walker, Elizabeth Taylor, and Marsha P. Johnson, Rae Nudson unpacks makeup’s cultural impact—including how it can be used to shape a personal or cultural narrative, how often beauty standards align with whiteness, how and when it can be used for safety, and its function in the workplace, to name a few examples. Every woman has had to make a very personal choice about her relationship with makeup, and consciously or unconsciously, every woman knows that the choice is never entirely hers to make. This book also holds space for complicating factors, especially the ways that beauty standards differ across race, class, and culture. Engaging and informative, All Made Up will expand the discussion around what it means to participate in creating your own self-image.

Book Description
Fat is Not the Enemy! In today's youth-obsessed culture, mixed messages about diet, exercise, and skincare are everywhere. But one thing is clear: fat is always the enemy. Right? Wrong, says James R. Lyons, M.D. In LOSE THE FAT, LOSE THE YEARS, Dr. Lyons explains that, contrary to popular belief, fat is the key to a youthful looking face and body. But it has to be the right kind of fat. With his nearly 30 years of clinical experience, Dr. Lyons had noticed the presence of different types of fat in the body, one that makes us look old, and one that gives our bodies a youthful appearance. LOSE THE FAT, LOSE THE YEARS reveals, for the first time, how retaining "good" fat while losing "bad" fat is the key to a healthier, leaner body and more youthful glow. Change your body with a unique and sensible eating and exercise program that includes: *A four-week eating plan that alternates carbohydrates and proteins, keeping blood sugar at an even keel to avoid fat production. *A monthly exercise routine centered on weights and bungee cords--not cardio--keeping metabolism up continuously (not temporarily, as cardio does) to burn more fat Revolutionary in concept, LOSE THE WEIGHT, LOSE THE YEARS will change the way you think about fat – and the results will last for the rest of your life!
