The skin concerns us every day: care, aging, allergies, anti-aging, sun ... It is just under two square meters in size and protects us from overheating. It envelops everything we carry inside us and is a highly sensitive means of communication. No excitement, no sex - without our skin.
The physician Dr. med. Yael Adler gets to grips with our skin and explains everything you want to know about it. She does not shy away from pustules, wrinkles, foot cheese and other taboos. In a clear and entertaining way, she explains why sex makes you beautiful, why men don't get cellulite, and why there's a lot of brains in our skin.
In a useful practical section, Yael Adler has collected numerous recipes for tried and tested creams, bath additives and lotions, most of which she can make herself.
