We are proud to publish a book that champions straightforward advice, inclusivity and empowering young people to feel confident in their own skin."

Hirons said: "One of the most common questions I get from parents is how to help their teens navigate skincare. After years of talking to parents’ and teens’ questions on social and the shop floor. I knew it was time to create a resource that cuts through the confusion and provides straightforward, practical advice."
