Product Description

Designed to help the curious newcomer gain a clear understanding of complementary healthcare, Health Essentials is a series of practical books which give the facts you need to know about natural therapies and describe how they work for you. Exceptionally clear and concise, each text is complemented by attractive illustrations. Natural Beauty explains how you can use pure and natural ingredients, such as beeswax, honey, herbs and yoghurt, to make your own fresh moisturising lotions and special beauty preparations. The recipes included are ideal for both normal and 'problem' skins, and unlike many commercial products, do not harm the user or the environment nor are they tested on animals.

Customer Reviews

Natural Beauty by Sidra Shaukat, Vega books
This is a fantastic book. It's compact, concise and classic. I've tried the recipes and they really work. What's so great about these treatments is that you know exactly what's inside, instead of the usual pharmacists description in shop bought products.

There's great introductions to aromatherapy, reflexology, massage and even swimming exercises!
Go buy it!
