Your ultimate guide to bright, clear skin from Dr Sam Bunting, cosmetic dermatologist and founder of global skincare brand Dr Sam's.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Most skincare advice is either confusing or wrong. Flawless cuts through the noise to deliver what actually works.

Dr Sam Bunting is a cosmetic dermatologist who has spent over two decades treating patients at her Harley Street practice and building one of the UK's most trusted skincare brands. She knows what actually works and, just as importantly, what doesn't.

This is not a book about doing more. It's a book about doing the right things: choosing the right ingredients, in the right combination, at the right concentration. Those principles have guided every patient consultation, every formula, and every line of this bookβ€”all in pursuit of the same goal: bright, clear skin for life.

Inside, you'll find:

  • How to identify and treat the skin concerns that affect you most, from blemishes and redness to pigmentation and sensitivity.
  • A plain-English guide to actives: what they are, how they work, and how to layer them without drama.
  • The latest advances in skincare science, explained without jargon and what it means for you.
  • A step-by-step method for building a routine that's truly yoursβ€”straightforward enough to stick to, effective enough to drive results.

Whether you're starting from scratch or untangling years of conflicting advice, Flawless gives you the knowledge to take control of your skin and transform it.

About the Author

Dr Sam Bunting MA (Cantab), MBBS, MRCP(UK) is a cosmetic dermatologist with more than 20 years' experience in clinical practice. She trained at the University of Cambridge and University College London before completing seven years of specialist dermatology training and practice across major London teaching hospitals and was an early pioneer in using prescription dermatology solutions for their cosmetic benefits. She is the founder of Dr Sam Bunting and Associates at 41 Harley Street and of Dr Sam's, her award-winning skincare brand. In her clinic, she has treated everyone from Oscar winners and supermodels to the beauty editors who shape the industry. Dr Sam's was born from the conviction that the protocols delivering bright, clear skin to her patients shouldn't stay behind a Harley Street door. The brand addresses a frustration she saw repeatedly: patients overwhelmed by an industry that makes skin feel complicated. She launched Dr Sam's in 2018 to change that - to give her community the knowledge to master their skin, not just shop for it. The brand has built a global direct-to-consumer following and is now stocked at Sephora and Space NK in the UK. youtube.com/c/DrSamBuntingTV instagram.com/drsambunting instagram.com/drsamsskincare tiktok.com/@drsamsskincare facebook.com/drsamanthabunting
