5.0 out of 5 stars Kitchen Cosmetics by Jeanne Rose
This is a great book, very beautiful and easy to follow. My mother and I have been able to make the best home-made skin care products. The herbs are limited to 25 simple ones that I have been able to find and use. Some of them we grow. Great formulas, clean and easy. We love this book and are going to buy more of Jeanne Rose books.

1.0 out of 5 stars Well past its prime.
Don't be misled by the attractive book cover. In comparison with current books on making natural skincare items, this one is moldy in both content and appearance. You'll get much better information and recipes from: 1) 'Make Your Own Cosmetics' by Neal's Yard Remedies. 2) 'Natural Bodycare' by Julia Meadows. 3) 'Natural Beauty at Home' by Janice Cox.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful starter book into making herbal cosmetics!, June 17, 1999
This review is from: Jeanne Rose's Kitchen Cosmetics: Using Herbs, Fruit and Flowers for Natural Bodycare (Paperback)
If you already incorporate herbs into your life, this book is wonderful for making your own cosmetics using items you probably already have in your kitchen. Definitely worth the price...I still refer to mine today!

3.0 out of 5 stars Caution against shampoo recipes, February 25, 2006

This review is from: Jeanne Rose's Kitchen Cosmetics: Using Herbs, Fruit and Flowers for Natural Bodycare (Paperback)
In general I like this book. Although it doesn't have a wide variety of recipes. Anyway, it is rather dated. For instance, I followed the recipes for shampoo. Yikes! Her amounts of tincture of benzoin in there made the shampoo stick to the measuring cup! And nevermind what it did to my hair (hey, I had an open mind). So maybe the way tincture of benzoin is made is different from how it was back then. I don't know, but head's up. This is the only natural bodycare book I have, but I hear there are better out there.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother, May 12, 2007

This review is from: Jeanne Rose's Kitchen Cosmetics: Using Herbs, Fruit and Flowers for Natural Bodycare (Paperback)
I was soooooo disappointed with this book. It is not easy to follow, and you have to spend a lot of time to find something that might work for you. I loved her Herbs and Things, and used it a great deal. This book however, was to me scattered.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jeanne Rose's Kitchen Cosmetics: Using Herbs, Fruit and Flowers for Natural Bodycare (Paperback)
I ordered a book from this seller almost a month ago. This book has not been sent yet. This is a irresponsible seller.
