Publisher's summary

The ultimate skincare guide for Black women

Putting the skincare needs of Black women first.

Dija Ayodele takes you through the lifetime of skin, sharing transformative essentials from how to work out your skin type to the dos and don’ts for your everyday routine. She explains the best ingredients for your skin and your budget, and the issues that Black women face: hyperpigmentation, general skin discolouration and increased dryness.

Dija examines the concept of identity, looking at the way history has shaped how Black women express themselves in beauty and skincare, and debunks common myths and misconceptions: do darker skin tones need SPF? And is there any truth to the saying ‘Black don’t crack'?

Intelligent, informed and indispensable, this is the guide that every Black woman has been waiting for.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The Skin I’m In

Love❤️love❤️LOVE❤️This book👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽It is packed with loads of information and gems💎I just couldn’t stop listening.I paused so many times to take notes because I needed to see this in a way I could understand. Dija Ayodele, BLEW THIS OUT THE PARK🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽Everything was so well put together. She kept me engaged and wanting to hear more. The +++++for me was her accent. I love the British native tongue🥰I can listen to them speak ALL DAY LONG. She was clear, soothing, relaxing, understandable, funny, informative and knowledgeable. Thank you soooo much for this Queen👑Dija❤️You are appreciated🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😘

Simply Amazing

Simply amazing, I am now a social media follower! Being a Black esthetician it’s imperative to know how to treat black skin. This was a great kick start to that journey. Cant wait for other content of hers.

Great listen for a future master esthetician!

This is a comprehensive breakdown of what is needed in black skincare. The information is extremely useful. I’m excited to use these tips in my practice. Thank you, Dija!

Thank You For This

This was exactly the kind of book I was looking for and I wish I had known about it ages ago. I could have saved so much money and be long on my way to knowing what works for me! I’ll be recommending this to people.

Very Informative!

I really enjoyed listening to the author speak about this very important knowledge on black skin. I’m soooo glad that she also incorporated key historical insight as to why black skin is not as valued in mainstream society. I would recommend this book to all professionals in the field who handle various skin concerns regularly and all black women I know!

More Please!!!

As a black esthetician, the genre for black skincare literature is super small. Thank you! For being honest, candid and still very "black"...we need more content like this!
