Aromatherapy Handbook For Beauty,Hair, And Skin

Good book

Not at all helpful

lots of helpful info

If you are looking for a bit more theory with cosmetics, this book is for you. It is well written and explains well all the scientific side of cosmetics.

I can't believe that I haven't written a review for this book yet...(Bad Amazon Purchaser). If you're interested in making your beauty products, this book is a great place to start. You might have to purchase some of the ingredients listed in some of the recipes or, if you're like me, you already have some. Either way, you could either follow the book's recipes or you can tweak them, like I do. I think the section on EOs is especially helpful as there are charts that you can easily look at to see what oils do what and corresponds to what type hair/skin you have. I will say that I wish there was more hair care information, as it mostly deals with skin, but all-in-all, a good book to delve into making your own beauty products.

In perfect condition! Thanks!

Especially for the beginner to intermediate aromatherapist and cosmetics maker, this book is an excellent resource. It's organized well and gives a quick description of most of the oils one would find themselves using to make potent, functional products. Lots of great recipes, though don't expect to be handed the methods for creating soaps, lotions, etc. This is more about proper usage of oils and their functions. I always have this book handy. While in no way is it a comprehensive source for all oils and all treatments, it remains one of my favorite resources for quick reference, even after several years.
