The first part of the book is about the skin and really helps you understand what cosmetics and skin care can do for the skin. As for the description of the ingredients, some details feel skimmed over. But overall a very good resource. Milady’s Skin Care and Cosmetic Ingredients Dictionary by Natalia Michalun
