THE WHOLE TRUTH about beauty, youth, and skin care

Now I'm 44 and the truth is that for half of my life, I COULDN'T ACCEPT THE WAY I LOOKED. Breakouts, brown spots, enlarged pores, wrinkles and fine lines, dull complexion, and drooping eyelids were my reality, annoying and destroying my self-esteem.

I remember looking in the mirror and bursting into tears in desperation over enormous cystic acne. I cannot forget feeling miserable over an early appearance of fine lines. My skin condition was so poor, I couldn’t face myself or anyone else in broad daylight.

I paid numerous visits to dermatologists, nutritionists, and other types of “-ists” in Europe and Los Angeles, USA. I tried different creams, hormone therapy, antibiotics, and a variety of diets. I spent a small fortune on all of that, but the desired results never came.

A miracle solution—pill, ointment, cream—seemed to be right in front of me only to end up, yet again, to be a disappointing waste of time a few weeks later. I was beginning to lose hope that the situation would improve.

In complete despair, I finally realized that the only way to help myself was to become a beautician and to learn what was happening to my body and my skin. So I enrolled in a beauty school in Los Angeles and immersed myself in an intensive search for the answers.

The road to uncovering the true beauty secrets (not the obvious lies the cosmetic industry feeds us every day) was long and painful. The lack of knowledge was at the root of my problems.

In sunny California, I was learning beauty secrets from the best teachers at the time. I graduated from the National Academy of Sports Medicine. After obtaining the cosmetology license in California, I started working in beauty salons in Los Angeles.

Staying in this field for a long time was not my plan. The only goal of becoming a beautician was to HELP MYSELF.

The way I see beauty now was largely influenced by an 80-something-year-old lady, an instructor from Thailand. She generously shared many secrets from the East where women start taking care of their skin very early and protect it for the rest of their lives.

As soon as I started to uncover beauty secrets, my life started to change. For the next several years, I gained necessary knowledge about feminine beauty and youth preservation.

Over the course of my long studies and experimentation with my own problematic skin, I discovered the main principles of skin care and beauty and researched the effects of the food we eat. I learned to notice what REALLY WORKS and what is just an empty promise or false advertisement.

I also learned how fine lines and wrinkles appear, how to stay slim and beautiful for a long time, why diets don’t work and how to replace them, why our skin ages, and how to slow down this process.

I will never know why the dermatologists, dietitians, and other beauticians wouldn’t tell me the whole truth about beauty when I was younger. Maybe they were paid by Big Pharma and the giants of the cosmetics industry, or maybe they just did not know any better.

I wrote "THE WHOLE TRUTH about beauty, youth, and skin care" so that you don’t have to learn this previously hidden information the hard way like I did.

My goal is to give you REAL and valuable knowledge about skin care and how to preserve your beauty. You will find that the book is easy to read, easy to understand, and it can really change your life!

This book is about my 20-year-long search for beauty, youth, and skin care. It reveals the most important secrets to tackling skin problems and maintaining beautiful skin for many years to come.

With love,
