This book is just brilliant. The author is generous with her knowledge and there is lots of information to learn from. Some ingredients, although not hard to find, can be costly, so it would have been better to have some more basic recipes you could try without having to buy so many things. However, once you are hooked, looking for reasonably priced ingredients becomes a welcomed challenge. It would have been good to have had a soap recipe or two, but overall the recipes are easy to follow, thanks to the authors style of writing and the results are amazing! I will be reading this book over and over again. The only downside to this book is the authors confidence placed on the cosmetic industry, she states that all skincare products, natural or otherwise, and synthetic ingredients go through rigorous testing to ensure they are skin safe and have no adverse side effects, etc.. This is slightly worrying to hear; I bought this book knowing the dangers in synthetic products and also knowing that the cosmetic industry is self regulated (which means, to me, that they are no really regulated) This makes some ingredients far from safe and do cause adverse side effects and should be avoided as much as possible..which is again why you would want to buy books such as this one. Besides that, This book was worth the buy!

Has many great recpies! Everythinhs in grams but theres a conversion chart to use measuring spoons. Really great book i love it a lot!

This is a great book - lots of good, concise information and lots of very good recipes. All the recipes I have used have been very successful. The information about the ingredients and the types of product is very good indeed, detailed enough and technical enough without being incomprehensible to the enthusiastic amateur. Of course you can always follow the recipes without reading any of the background information if you want to - the work has been done for you by the author.I would, however, have removed the final quarter of a star because the index is practically useless. Basic, to say the least. If you want to find information about most of the ingredients you will have to go through the book yourself. Jojoba oil? No. Evening Primrose oil? No. Avocado oil? No. The information is all there, in the book, and it is good and useful. You won't get to it through the index though.
