Skin Healing Expert by Hanna Sillitoe

Eczema, psoriasis, acne: chronic skin complaints cause all sorts of emotional distress. Hanna Sillitoe knows that, because she’s been there, having experienced all of those conditions before embarking on a journey to clear her skin.

Hanna’s first book, Radiant /£18.99 (Kyle Books), was a bestseller, featuring a pretty strict 28-day skin-clearing regime, with its plant-based protocol. (She also has her own skincare range, stocked in Holland & Barrett.)

She’s now written Skin Healing Expert (also from Kyle Books), which is sub-titled ‘Your 5 pillar plan for calm, clear skin.’ With its truly beautiful photography, easy-to-follow and inspiring recipes (we want to cook ALL of them!), and general down-to-earth skin wisdom, including supplement recommendations, this is a really comprehensive approach to treating skin.

You’ll also find many D-I-Y cosmetic recipes, including for oils to treat scars and hyperpigmentation, plus sections on meditation, gratitude and exercise – which we have always known ourselves are just so, so important, because of the links between the skin and our psyche.

We think Skin Healing Expert is a jolly good read even if you have flawless skin, actually – but we’ve bought a little stack, to give away to friends (and their daughters) who are facing skin challenges.
