REVIEW FROM LIBRARY JOURNAL

Although people of color are estimated to spend $5.1 billion a year on beauty products and services, few books cover how to care for darker skin and hair. Both practicing dermatologists who specialize in skin care for people of color, Downie and Cook-Bolden seek to fill this gap in the literature. Here, with the help of Emmy Award- winning reporter Taylor, they address the cosmetic concerns of men and women of African, Latino, Asian, Native American, Mediterranean, and Indian descent, expounding on the special composition and needs of darker skin. Using an A-to-Z format, the authors cover a wide range of skin conditions and treatments, ranging from acne and vitiligo to chemical peels and liposuction. Provided throughout are tips, hints, and product suggestions. The only thing missing is an appendix of suggested products and the conditions they benefit. Nonetheless, this is a valuable resource that provides much-needed information for people of color. Highly recommended for all consumer health collections and public libraries.
