Every year, nearly 80 million Americans seek medical advice regarding their skin, surpassing anxiety, depression, back pain, and diabetes as the primary reason for doctor visits. Regrettably, the majority of individuals receive only surface-level treatment, neglecting to address the underlying conditions that contribute to their skin issues. Skin, as an intricate reflection of overall health, holds immense secrets.

In her groundbreaking book, "Dirty Looks," internationally renowned dermatologist and scientist Dr. Whitney Bowe delves deep into the realm of skin health, revealing that it extends far beyond the surface. As a pioneering researcher at the forefront of the gut-brain-skin axis, she elucidates how a wide range of skin disorders, including acne, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, and premature aging, originate from irregularities within the gut. Conventional approaches relying solely on lasers, scalpels, creams, and prescription pads may not yield the consistent, radiant skin we all aspire to achieve.

Dr. Bowe shifts her focus to the microbiome, where trillions of microbes communicate with the skin through the brain. She highlights the interconnectedness between sleep, stress, diet, gastrointestinal health, and the well-being of our skin. Through simple explanations of scientific concepts, practical skincare strategies, and a transformative 3-week program, "Dirty Looks" serves as a comprehensive guide to achieving great skin from the inside out and the outside in. By embracing the power of the microbiome and adopting holistic approaches, readers can unlock the secret to healthy, glowing skin and embark on a journey of self-care and transformation.
