No – several people have asked me that but I haven’t got to it yet so can’t do a comparison. I thought afterwards that Inge’s would be great for people who have bought loads of skin care they don’t quite know what to do with to pare it into some sort of routine OR stare at a range and don’t know where to start. It’s not a long book but there is a great deal of information in it that’s pretty digestible.

Thanks for the recommendations Jane. Have you gotten around to reading Caroline Hiron’s book yet, I’d be interested to hear what you think? I had it on my christmas list but I’m now thinking maybe I’ll ask for Inge’s instead!

In reply to Anna Van Munster. That's a reminder how much product access has changed Anna :-)

Thank you, Jane! Yay, more “smart books about beauty”! I remember my first – The Beauty Bible I bought in 2000 on my honeymoon in airport flying to Malaysia: beautiful card cover thing full of handy advice – also with products suggestions (made me cry in my Europe – it took much more effort 20yrs ago to buy American or Asian brands) and pretty illustrations/pictures. I had years of pleasure with it and still smile passing the book cast and noticing it’s bright pink 🙂

In reply to Jen. Welcome - actually I think they might help people with too many products to pare down and put some sort of consistent regime in place.
