It also offers a consumers' guide to -natural' products currently available, as well as remedies for the 12 most common complaints, and natural makeup tips.

Part 4 discusses the spiritual aspects of Ayurveda which can aid in achieving inner peace and the outer glow that stems from it. Also included throughout the book are line drawings to illustrate Raichur's skin care techniques and exercises.aCombining the best of modern science and the age old wisdom of Ayurveda, Absolute Beauty is a complete skin care guide that not only offers the key to more beautiful skin, shinier hair, and thicker eyelashes, but to better overall health, vitality, and abody that feels as good as it looks.
