With photos and step-by-step instructions, Saeki shows you how to use your own hands to massage your face like a professional esthetician. She teaches you to use your eyes to judge what your skin needs, and not to overfeed it with too many cosmetics. She leads you toward a well-rounded, sustainable skincare routine, the results of which will amaze you. By following her advice, you'll discover that it's possible to have beautiful skin at any age--without spending a fortune.
