The book describes the skin?s function as one of the body?s major organs and shows how to use touch and massage on the pressure points in the face to improve the appearance of the skin and the health of the other organs. These simple techniques, some used in conjunction with essential oils, take just minutes to do and are easy to include in regular morning routines like putting on makeup or applying moisturizer. Breathing exercises, rountines for specific problems, and affirmations to rid the body and mind of toxins round out the book.
