Format:Hardcover
This book was published in 1996 but not in the slightest bit outdated.
Not only does this book have a lovely introduction Liz Earle goes into great detail about Natural beauty in history including egyption lips, the wig revolution, war time remedies and much much more.
She follows on with a chapter on getting started, describing useful equipment, storage tips, hygiene hitns, allergy testing, raw materials including descriptions of their benifits, followed by the botanical chapter again listing all the herbs etc and thier benefits.
This takes us to page 74 and the fun begins, from cold cream cleansers, soaps, face masks and packs, scar tissue lotions, antiseptic lotions, aftershaves, moisturisers, anti aging creams and the traditional puffy eye remedy.
This book has everything, some of the remedies are common sense like the previously mentioned puffy eye remedy but this book is a treasure, you can even make your own shampoo

Format:Paperback
A great little book by Liz Earle, full of information; a brief history of skincare, information on botanicals and essential oils, skincare and bodycare tips and loads and loads of excellent recipes (cleansers, toners, moisturisers, exfoliators, body scrubs, lotions and more!). No pictures, just lots of useful information. Most of the recipes can be created easily from basic ingredients. Excellent!
