In preparing my ebook, Anti-Aging Skin Care, I came across a number of excellent resources, including books, articles, and scientific studies. Since it was impossible to include everything I have learned in my ebook, I wanted to share some of these amazing resources with those who are interested in further understanding the skin aging process. I hope you find them helpful.
