Chinmayi SripaadaTo those of us who fell (happily) into the Asian skincare rabbit hole, Jude is better known as Fiddy Snails. If not for her research, breaking down what seemed like an extremely complex skincare routine to skincare newbies all around the world, most of us would have never discovered the joy from a skincare routine. If not for her, neither would many K-beauty brands be known across the world. Jude has generously shared all her time and years’ worth of knowledge―her work rings of honesty and integrity. You need this book
Christina WolfgramGive a woman a moisturizer and she will glow for a day; teach a woman to select a moisturizer based on active ingredients, her skin type, and mental health needs, and she will glow for the rest of her life! Whether you are a skincare newbie or a longtime veteran (who survived the age of St. Ives Apricot Scrub), Jude Chao’s prose is like chatting with a caring best friend who just happens to understand what ‘stratum corneum’ means. Between the illuminating scientific deep dives, Jude generously shares her personal story of how washing her face for thirty seconds a day evolved into using skincare as a powerful tool for improving her mental health. Skincare for Your Soul cuts through all the BS of marketing and ridiculous beauty standards of this FaceTuned era and guides you through creating a routine that will benefit YOU specifically, in your mind and body. Bonus: your moisture barrier will be pretty pleased, too
Ann ShenA truly beautiful and informative book about self-care as much as it is about skincare. An absolute holy grail for your library, Skincare for Your Soul makes skincare accessible for everyone, from curious newbies to the most ardent enthusiasts. Jude generously shares her knowledge to help you make your skincare work better for you
