About the Author

From an early age, Firozé was groomed to be a part of the fashion and beauty world. Raised in London and Paris, by her mother, a professional nutritionist, and naturalist, and her sister acclaimed Iranian actress, Vida Ghahremani, Firozé gained a unique and practical perspective of natural products and glamour. In 1978, Firozé moved to the United States to work as a model. After moving to New York City in 1980, she found her real love was working behind the scenes at fashion shoots. There she found herself giving advice to models and actors, who consulted with her about their nail and skin care. Much of the advice she gave was based on the treasured book of remedies left to her by her grandmother, a well-respected educator and healer known widely in Iran.Encouraged by her growing roster of celebrity clients, Firozé opened her own salon in Manhattan. After working as a hand and nail product consultant for Cutex and L'Oreal, she developed her signature line of organic nail products for mass distribution in 1999. Some of her clients have included Cher, Heidi Klum, Kim Catrell, Cindy Crawford, Angela Basset, Ed Harris, Uma Thurman and Oprah Winfrey.

Editorial Reviews

Firoze Salimi's book has power. As a westerner I have learned to rely on store bought, manufactured pills and creams, meanwhile dismissing and overlooking the potent healing factors our ancestors discovered in nature. Mamanjoon's delightfully clear and clean remedies are gleaned over centuries of experimention, passed on over generations. Sometimes these ingredients show up in our products but natural products tend to play a small part in what is available. In this book nature and old wisdom are

I have known Firoze for many years now and we share a passion for healing. I was taking care of my Mother and was stumped in how to help her. She threw 5 blood clots that lodged in her lungs. I tried everything I knew, her doctor knew and nothing worked. I reached out to Firoze who graciously shared Mamanjoon's recipe. I was ever grateful! And t worked!.

For anyone that does not believe in alternative medicine; this book will change your mind and give you hope on how going back to nature to heal oneself and others, is absolutely essential. She is a wonderful person and healer-
