Natural Homemade Beauty is an illustrated practical guide to creating your own cosmetics and beauty products from natural materials, some of which you can forage or grow yourself.
A beautifully designed instructive guide to creating luxurious, safe and effective beauty products using ingredients from nature. 

In this charming book you'll discover how to prepare an abundant range of products using plants and flowers, many 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
Camomile based shampoo for glossy hair
Sugar and honey body scrub
Ginger oil for blemish control

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 product-making process so you can't go wrong. There are handy visual guides to the plants you'll be using, accompanied by ravishing photography. Armed with this book you'll be able to create a whole beauty counter of products, both for yourself and for gifting, and you'll save money too!
