I have found many recipes in this book that I can make and sell. I have also found many recipes that I use myself, being a woman who is allergic to most all store-bought cosmetics and skin care products. I especially love the Chocolate Lip Gloss, the Gardener’s Hand Cream, and the Egyptian Facial Mask. The recipes are easy to follow. The ingredients are easy to obtain. The overall book is wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to make their own natural products. 57 of 60 people found the following review helpful:  I wish there was a craft book with SIMPLE ingredients., September 3, 2002 By This review is from: Natural Beauty for All Seasons: More Than 250 Simple Recipes and Gift-Giving Ideas for Year-Round Beauty (Paperback) I decided to check this book out at a bookstore first, because I have gotten so many craft books that sound really great, but the materials and ingredients needed are very exotic or expensive. This book is no exception. Although the recipes and ideas are simple and easy, the essential oils needed (which are NOT cheap, mind you.) and the other array of items (that no one keeps in their house) would cost a fortune. Her other book, “Natural Beauty at Home”, is a MUCH better book, with the same easy and simple instructions, and realistic materials. Ideas like oatmeal masks, potpurri, and soap that are not hard to do, and not pricey. I highly recommend this one over “Natural Beauty for All Seasons”. 30 of 30 people found the following review helpful: A must have for those who are interested in natural products, September 16, 1999 By ast-.net (Stockton, CA) – See all my reviews This review is from: Natural Beauty for All Seasons: More Than 250 Simple Recipes and Gift-Giving Ideas for Year-Round Beauty (Paperback) I live in this book, I have owned it for almost a year and still find new recipes that are wonderful.

Very extensive, talks about all the different aspects of health and beauty care. Lots and lots of recipes to make at home and which do work. Never again will I need to throw away good money on useless, expensive face creams that don’t do the job and put me at risk for cancer. Only drawback, perhaps, is that some of the recipes have too many ingredients for modest pocketbooks. Otherwise a great buy and a great book, if you don’t like creepy, strange-sounding unreliable chemicals in the products you put on your skin or in your hair, this is the book for you. It’s better than just a simple make-your-own-cosmetics type of book because the recipes are tailored precisely to YOUR particular skin type. 27 of 31 people found the following review helpful: Awsome, April 1, 1999 By A Customer This review is from: Ayurvedic Beauty Care: Ageless Techniques to Invoke Natural Beauty (Paperback) As an Ayurvedic esthetician, not only was this the perfect text book, but as a wonderful reference book, too. It is well written, easy to read, informative and the cover is especially telling. The woman balancing the three doshas is the perfect picture of what we try to do with our lives.

This review is from: Ayurvedic Beauty Care: Ageless Techniques to Invoke Natural Beauty (Paperback) I liked the overview on Ayurveda and natural beauty, but what I found lacking was the specific remedies for certain conditions. You will need to do further research to find these. |
