Modern & Healthy Body Care: Recipes for Professional, Natural Skin and Hair Care Products
I have really enjoyed making my own lotion, shower gel, hand soap, etc. with the recipes from this book. The cosmetics are commercial quality, and have wonderful vitamins and botanical ingredients that are so mild for my skin. My husband has a lot of contact with chemicals at work, so his hands are often chapped and irritated. The lotion is the best thing we have found over the counter to keep his hands moist and not irritated. And I even use the same lotion on my face twice a day! So if you are interested in making your own healthy cosmetics, I recommend this book.

The information is helpful for the bieginner. I would recomend it if you want to start making your own cosmetics. I gave it 4 stars because it does not list a lot of resources on where to get the ingredients because I believe it is what it was available when the book was written. Now with a little internet search though you’d find everything you need. Good referrence.

As another reader commented . . . the book is only 96 pages. A very misleading fact to say the least . . it states 114 pages. Is that where the wonderful recipes and valuable information is . . . in the missing pages! Yes, it has slick pages and color photos . . . but does not impart much useful recipes or formulas. If I could give it a negitive star rating I would! I have bought many books through Amazon . . . this was a bust . . . will return for credit!

The recipes work great! It is good to know I am putting such healthy ingredients on my skin. I use the lotion for everything, and my husband has very sensitive skin and loves it as well. He is exposed to chemicals and has found this lotion to work better than what he can buy. The liquid soaps are very gentle as well. A great book for someone learning to make commercial-quality products filled with vitamins and herbs!

After having tested several cosmetic recipe books, Modern & Healthy Body Care is by far the most comprehensive and up-dated book. All recipes are easy and give truly natural products. Also, all ingredients are extensively described and easily available through the supplier list. Finally a book that does not tell you to make cosmetics from food products.
