The Glow Up

Forget the 12-step routines.
Forget the miracle creams.
Great skin starts with understanding what actually works.

Award-winning journalist Paula Joye is here to cut through the noise of modern skincare — from viral TikTok trends and expensive “miracle” products to confusing beauty advice that leaves your bathroom overflowing and your skin overwhelmed.

In The Glow Up, Paula reveals the truth about skincare with practical, expert-backed advice that’s simple, realistic, and easy to follow. No gimmicks. No judgement. Just smarter skincare for real life.

Built around six straightforward steps, this essential beauty guide will help you:
• build a skincare routine that actually suits your skin
• understand which products are worth the money — and which aren’t
• navigate ageing, hormones, stress, illness, and changing weather
• separate skincare myths from scientifically backed facts
• feel confident in your skin at every age and stage of life

From eye cream debates and pore myths to the truth about snail slime, The Glow Up is the ultimate no-nonsense skincare book for anyone who wants healthy, glowing skin without the overwhelm.

Perfect for fans of practical beauty advice, skincare beginners, and anyone tired of confusing beauty trends and expensive routines.
