[.ca] Recipes for Natural Beauty: 100 Homemade Treatments for ... (ISBN 0816038287)

Helpful for a beginner:
I liked reading the recipes in this book. Many of the ingredients are not too difficult to find. The reason I only gave this book a 3 however is that it is not specific enough on storage. There is a little blurb on page 12 that talks about preferred message of storage. However, I wanted more specific details on storage and shelf life to be included with each recipe. This kind of thing is important for novices to know so they know how much of certain ingredients is "safe" to purchase at any given time.

Fabulous when I can find the ingredients.:
The recipes for which I was able to find the ingredients: lotion, nail care cream, exfoliator were absolutely supreme--wonderful for my very dry skin. Some of the recipes call for tintures and flowers which I couldn't find in my local health food store. It would have been helpful if the book had given Internet or mail-order sources for some of the ingredients. Instead, the recipes say to use the ingredient if you can find it--not much help--and they don't say what to do it you can't. But given my sucess with what I have so far I will continue to search out other ingredients.

A Wonderful Informative book:
This book is absolutly fabulous its really informative with lots of colored photos. With lots of solutions to your beauty problems like tired eyes and perfumes, hair etc.. I would recommend it to anyone who's interested in beauty.
