Including separate sections for men and women, this title contains ideas for facial exfoliants, natural aftershave, moisturisers, and creams for itchy skin, discoloured knees and smooth feet. It covers parts of the body, from head to toe.
This is not merely about washing away the dirt: it embodies a mindset, a philosophy, an alternative to mass consumerism. DeJong draws from Eastern belief systems - especially the element theory in Chinese medicine and Asian cooking - and harmoniously balances five pure essentials in his recipes, using baking soda, lemon, olive oil, salt and white vinegar as the basis for his all-natural concoctions. Including special, separate sections for men and women, "Clean Body" has ideas for everything from facial exfoliants and natural aftershave to moisturisers and creams for itchy skin, discoloured knees and smooth feet. Every part of the body, from head to toe, is covered.

Author, designer and artist Michael DeJong did his Clean investigations while cleaning apartments to supplement his income when he first moved to New York. He has appeared in the media, on websites and in many publications. Clean was included in the trainee kit for Al Gore's Climate Project and the goody bag in the Green Room at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival.
