Customer Reviews

Warning!
Do not buy this book if you already own Rosemary's Family Herbal! All but three recipes in Herbs for Natural Beauty are contained in the Herbal. Even the copy is the same. I was very disappointed.

A Good Book
This isn't a very big book, but there is information galore. The recipes are easy, ingredients are easy to find, and the homemade products are wonderful to use. I have bought many books on making comestics, but this small book is right up there with the best. This book is full of knowledge on making natural skin care products. I recommend this small book for anyone who is interested in making cosmestics.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!
The only thing wrong with it is that it was TOO short! This book contains wonderfully easy and beautfully effective herbal concotions that offer you a variety of ways to spoil yourself. (-_-)
