ASIAN BEAUTY SECRETS
For her new book, Asian Beauty Secrets: Ancient and Modern Tips from the Far East, Dr. Jhin researched the science behind time-honored Asian traditions and modern, cutting-edge procedures. “There are so many practices done there that we can benefit from here,” Dr. Jhin says. “For example, Asians are so good about sun avoidance and protection, which is crucial for flawless skin. Just think of how the geishas of Japan carried umbrellas when they walked outside.” Going more than skin deep, the book also covers traditional medicine and foods with antioxidants that are beauty boosters from the inside out. “It’s for anyone who wants to know what Asians do to keep their skin looking so beautiful,” Dr. Jhin says.
