A beautifully designed practical guide to creating luxurious, safe and effective beauty products using ingredients from nature.

In this charming book, you'll discover how to prepare a huge range of products using plants, some of which you'll be able to find around you or grow yourself. It includes comprehensive, easy-to-follow recipes for:

  • Rich moisturising cream with daisy extract
  • Shampoo with camomile for glossy hair
  • Body scrub with sugar and honey
  • Ginger oil to treat breakouts

You will find a wealth of other delights such as body butter, hair conditioner, lip balm, deodorant, bath oil and even toothpaste. Also included is a selection of fragrance products for your home, such as a lavender and pine room spray made with vodka!

Each easy-to-follow recipe gives a complete description of the making process so you can't go wrong, and there are handy visual guides to the plants you'll be using, accompanied by ravishing photography. Armed with Natural Homemade Beauty, you'll be able to create a whole beauty counter of products, both for yourself and for gifting, and you'll save money too!
