from Dey Street & Harper Collins

Journalist and former Allure beauty editor Sable Yong debuts with a sharp-toothed and hilarious essay collection about beauty and vanity, examining their stigmatization in the cultural zeitgeist, and how to shift the focus to use both for powerful tools for self-exploration, interpersonal connection, and cultural change.


“A vibrant essay collection about beauty, identity, and cultural acceptance. Yong’s take on beauty and fashion is revealing, playful, and heartfelt.”
