200 Tips, Techniques, and Recipes for Natural Beauty
Selecting Ingredients
Store-bought beauty products are often laden with synthetic ingredients, fake fragrances, unnatural fillers, and irritating chemicals. The best thing about creating your own beauty products is that you can know exactly what you’re putting on your skin and feel confident that it is nourishing and pure. At the very heart of your handmade beauty products will be the natural, organic, and wild-harvested ingredients that you select. This chapter will guide you through choosing and using the absolute best ingredients that Mother Nature has to offer.
Tools and Supplies
One of the main advantages of creating kitchencrafted natural beauty products is that you will most likely already have in your kitchen many of the utensils and equipment needed to prepare the recipes in this book. Some folks prefer to have a separate set of tools appointed just for fashioning beauty products. In this chapter you can work out exactly what tools you need and learn some clever tips and tricks on discovering quality equipment at reasonable prices.
Naturally Lustrous Hair
Caring for your gorgeous tresses and lovely locks is very simple when it is done naturally. Your hair is happier when you steer clear of synthetic chemicals, hair-stripping sulfates, and stifling silicones, and instead choose to nurture your magnificent mane with beneficial botanical ingredients. Delight in this lush mix of plantbased hair-care formulas to cleanse, condition, treat, and nourish.
Fabulous Facial Care
Plant-based botanical skincare can keep a perfect complexion in tip-top shape but, then again, if you have other beauty worries, there will be an excellent and effective natural treatment for those as well. With the influence of healing herbs, beneficial oils, and powerful plant extracts, you may formulate and make to order a perfect product that can lessen the signs of aging, soothe and put a stop to pesky blemishes, deep clean and exfoliate pores, and calm distressed and dry skin by restoring proper levels of hydration.
Conditioning Body Care
Conventional body-care products can be overloaded with harsh surfactants, potentially risky parabens, synthetic fragrances, and other dubious ingredients. In this chapter, we will look at natural body cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing formulas that contain mild plant-based purifiers, sweet-smelling essential oils, and nourishing plant and nut oils to nurture and protect your skin.
Perfumes and Aromatherapy
Enter the intoxicating world of aromatherapy and perfume blending, and take your hand-crafted beauty formulas to new heights. Learn how to compose a balanced and harmonizing blend with top notes, middle notes, and base notes; develop that signature scent for a special someone; or create an air-diffuser aroma to fragrance your home. Discover the wonderful powers of aromatherapy oils and mix blends that will calm you, energize you, help you focus, or soothe you into a restful slumber. Once you understand the basics, you will be well on your way to creating beauty products that smell every bit as good as they feel.

Very Informative & Resourceful Book! Love it!
Love this book. I am so glad I got it! Excellent reference & informational book. I like how it’s broken down so easily to read & understand. It does a good job covering the more common, natural butters, salts, sugars, clays, and carrier oils. I found the profilings of the carrier oils & essential oils extremely helpful. I love the tips, tricks & the variety of recipes, including, cleansers, lotions, shampoos, masks, scrubs, salves, etc… In addition, I really appreciate the encouragement & suggestions in making your own alterations to the recipes. The chapters are broken down by ingredients, tools, hair care, facial care, body care and lastly perfumes, which is something I’ve recently became interested in learning more about.

Brief, relevant, making sense info
This is the only book I’m going to keep in my library. The recipes organized in a clear manner, easy to find for busy working woman. Only relevant info. Even tables of recipes components, so you can use your creativity to make something new. Without exaggeration, this the only book you need to learn how to do your own products. All with pictures of “how to” such as how melt butters, etc. I wish I found this book before wasting my money on 3 rambling bla-bla.

Amazing – recipes, ingredient benefits descriptions, and more!
So so so worth it. This book has easy recipes for products but also is helpful in outlining the benefits of different ingredients, so you can learn how to customize recipes for what you need. I had such dry painful lips and made one of their lip balms… completely fixed in less than 24 hours. Looking forward to making more!

Excellent book
This book is fantastic! Well designed, recipes are clear, easy to follow and work well. I am delighted with this purchase. After learning about some unhealthy ingredients in commercial products I decided to make some of my own items. Love it. Fun to make blends with friends and love to learn healthy ways to care for hair,body,nails,feet etc! A great purchase! Will buy some for gifts as well.

This book grew on me over time.
I’m new to the world of making my own skin and hair care products and found this book to have some great basic information that was helpful to a newbie. There was a few basic recipes but by and large most of the recipes were requiring multiple ingredients that I didn’t have on hand. I found myself going back to the internet to find simpler recipes that were easier to start with so that I could get started without spending a fortune on ingredients. Over time as I built up my ingredients collection and gained more experience, I developed a greater appreciation for this book. I’ve learned enough to now be comfortable with using her tables as a framework for creating my own recipes which is a lot more fun than following one. I also have done enough research over time to were I can start to recognize a bad recipe and know there is a lot of bad advice floating around on the internet. This book is a reliable source of good ideas.

Excellent, comprehensive and fun! Best book of all my “crunchy” books.
Excellent book! I have quite a few books in my essential oil, natural and crunchy beauty library. This is by far, the most comprehensive book of them all. The book goes into detail, for every aspect of the body; from the hair to the toes. She covers herbs, oils, butters and essential oils, so you understand what each item is good for. She covers everything you could possibly need to make for your body. From hair products; masks, vinegar rinses, cleansers and conditioners. To the face; cleansers, scrubs, masks, oils and moisturizers. Herbal infusions, and salves. Foot scrubs, soaks, butters and lotions. You name it, this book covers it. A must purchase if you like to make your own beauty products.

It is divided up in such a logical way that it is easy to use as a reference
Wow! This book is chock full of information. There was definitely a lot of research that went into this book. And yet, with all the info, it is so visually appealing. It is divided up in such a logical way that it is easy to use as a reference. It would also be good as a book for deeper study and research. Well done, Shannon Buck. I will be checking out more of what you have available.

Tips-techniques
Nice book. Good reference, but not exactly helpful in the one thing I was looking for – but did give me a good idea to further research. Added to library.
Amazon Customer –
Excellent description of Mother Earth’s amazing ingredients along with excellently designed formulations. A great reference tool for people starting out in their skin care product design journey!

Great for a beginner, but you gotta make sure to plan a head of the time and order the required ingredients according to the recipes (herbs, vegetable oils/and butters, essential oils, clays etc.). If you’re strictly vegan consider that Lanolin is used in some of the recipes; Lanolin is wool fat from domestic sheep breeds).

I love this book- I’ve made such a variety of things and all the recipes have been pretty simple, easy to follow and turn out well. From bath bombs, body cleanser, hand cream, face cream, face masks and there’s so much left for me to try. I’ve bought a few books on this topic and this is my favourite so far
