New book

Hermans, Anne-Mette (2021). Discourses of Perfection: Representing Cosmetic Procedures and Beauty Products in UK Lifestyle Magazines. Routledge.190 pp.

This book explores editorial and advertising discourses related to cosmetic procedures and beauty products and services in UK lifestyle magazines, offering a holistic perspective on the normalisation of cosmetic procedures and the societal context in which particular perceptions have flourished. I particularly focus on the continuum view of beauty products and cosmetic procedures, and examine the implications of a blurred boundary for the regulation of the cosmetic surgery industry.
