Healthy, glowing skin starts in the gut, says US-based dermatologist Whitney Bowe, who’s known in the skincare world for her integrated approach to beauty and in-depth research on the connection between the gut and skin microbiomes (aka ecosystems of living bacteria). “Patients dealing with acne, rosacea, eczema, or premature ageing can benefit from my three-week plan, which introduces diet, lifestyle, and skincare habits to reset the gut flora and improve skin,” she says. You can get all the details in her new book The Beauty Of Dirty Skin (amazon.com, 1,343), which includes recipes, workout ideas, and skincare tips.
