I purchased the Spa Lab for my 9 year old granddaughter. She loves fashion and looking good so she immediately went to explore what could be done with the spa. She used cucumber slices or tea bags to put on her eyes to remove bags under the eyes. She put an avacado "mask" on her face. There were items in the kit to make scented disks to put in closets or drawers. She thoroughly enjoyed doing facials with her mom. This is fun and the items that aren't provided in the kit are easily available in the kitchen.

Okay, let start with the CONS: the toy is not worth the price because it includes a 10 page "recipe book" detailing how to make all the "products", several small bags of citric acid and a few really cheap plastic containers for storing "products." You could go to an all natural body product website, get some ideas and use household containers to make everything. So, think before you spend on this.

Pros: Okay, I DID spend money on this and... my daughter loved it! The value of the time spent with my daughter was truly priceless. If I have to waste a few bucks to initiate a fun evening... so be it!

Overall: Buy it and have fun!

My 6 year old daughter loves this kit. It is great if you want ideas for making your own natural spa products, rather than subjecting yourself to chemical filled products. I rated it a 3, however, because although it does have a cute recipe book, the recipes could easily be found in a variety of sources. It is a little expensive for what is basically just recipes, glitter, and a few plastic containers.

This kit is a great bonding opportunity for you and your child and teaching the healthy organic choices to all your family members. Neat book, we really haven't been using any of the containers that came with a kit and be prepared - you have to have a lot of ingredients handy. Yes, you could pull the recipes on-line but here your child gets to pick them with the help of a book. I like this kit. Not as much as for recipes (which are easy to make and quite delicious too - it's fun to be able to eat hair mask, for example :)) but as for all the bonding time with my little girl!

This product arrived fast and in great condition! I gave it as a Christmas present and the 10 year old loved and seemed very excited to try the fun ideas out!

My niece and sister love playing with this together. It's fun and educational! Thanks to all the reviews that helped make my decision to buy it!
