This book contains a list of the most commonly used herbs in home cosmetic making and their properties. In addition, it tells you the best method for extracting those properties for use in your products. There is also an informative section on essential oils. Simple, easy to follow recipes for toners, astringents, liquid soap, cremes, lotions, hair conditioning rinses, body powders, and more. Best of all, these recipes contain no synthetic ingredients or preservatives. If you want pure, safe skin care, this book is a must-have. As other reviewers have noted, it is for beginners, but the end results are first-rate and most are superior to the products I've made using other books.

I found the lists of ingredients and their uses in the beginning of the book very helpful in developing my own skin products. It lists the various ingredients commonly used in developing your own skin care treatments, such as carrier oils and herbs and explains how they are used. I think one just starting to make their own products would find this book very useful.

A clear written book with colorful illustrations; however, you can't find an answer when you look for a solution of your particular needs. You cannot expect too much from a thin book of 112 pages which half of its pages are allocated for the general information of each ingredients and the colourful illustrations
