In a world obsessed with appearance, it is not surprising that body dysmorphic disorder, or BDD -- an emotionally painful obsession with perceived flaws in one's appearance -- has manifested itself as a troubling and relatively common problem for many individuals. In The Broken Mirror, the first and most definitive book on BDD, Dr. Katharine A. Phillips provided a comprehensive manual for patients and their physicians by drawing on years of clinical practice, scientific research, and professional evaluations of over 1,000 patients. Now, in Understanding Body Dysmorphic Disorder: An Essential Guide, the world's leading authority on BDD reaches out to patients, their friends, and their families with this concise and updated handbook.

BDD causes sufferers to be obsessed by perceived flaws in their appearance and may afflict as much as two percent of the population, or nearly five million people. Many sufferers are able to function well in society, but remain secretly obsessed by their "hideous acne" or "horrible nose," sneaking constant peeks at a pocket mirror, or spending hours at a time redoing makeup. Others find their lives disintegrate because of their appearance obsessions. It is not an uncommon disorder, simply a hidden one, since sufferers are often embarrassed to tell even their closest friends about their concerns.

Using stories and interviews to show the many different behaviors and symptoms of BDD, and a quick self-assessment questionnaire, Dr. Phillips guides readers through the basics of the disorder and through the many treatment options that work and don't work. With Understanding Body Dysmorphic Disorder: An Essential Guide, sufferers will find both helpful advice and much needed reassurance in a compact, down-to-earth indispensable book.

This sunscreen body lotion is quite nice.
Style: Piña Colada
This sunscreen body lotion seems to work well. SPF 30 is the highest I could find with moisturizing capabilities. The smell is a bit overwhelming when you first put it on but it then goes away... so why the added scent. I wish it were SPF 50 and unscented. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

Great value, excellent product!!!!!
Scent: Mango & Hibiscus, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is the best shampoo I’ve ever used. No joke. . I used to spend $42 per bottle of Pureology Hydrate Sheer for years. One day I forgot to bring shampoo when I travelled and considering I am allergic to most shampoos since I was a child, I went to Whole Foods Market and bought this, as I already use the excellent Babo 50 SPF sunscreen. . That was over 4 years ago and I’ve bought this on repeat. Just bought 2 more bottles because I fear they stop making this. . The package is a little quirky. So I put it in a reusable pretty bottle in my shower. . My hair is ash blonde, baby fine and highlighted, about shoulder length. This shampoo is safe for daily use, it is lightly scented with a very faint mango/flower scent that is barely there after you rinse it. . I’ve experience no build up. Before using this, when I was using Pureology, I had to use a clarifying shampoo once a week, otherwise my hair felt like greasy straws. . Since using this shampoo, I no longer have to do that. My hair is clean, soft, can’t understand the volume and shine after I use this. . My $200 per haircut hair stylist kept paying me compliments, thinking I’ve upped my hair routine with masks, heat protecting spray and all the nonsense. NOPE. I just wash with this shampoo. . Ps- sometimes I use Babo’s Baobab & Rosehip Conditioner in the light peachy pink container, sometimes I use another conditioner. Regardless, I’d pay twice as much for this shampoo. . Exceptional.!
