Formerly known as Aromantic’s Education Pack 1, this Aromantic Guide to making your own Natural Skin, Hair and Body Care products has been revised, updated and expanded throughout and has an extra chapter on how to make Cleansers, Peelers, Exfoliates and Skin Toners. This 97-page Guide is packed with information, recipes and step-by-step methods so that you can make your own natural, tailor-made products, whether for your friends, family or therapy clients. What’s more, it’s professionally designed to reflect the value of its contents in a new, easy-to-handle and read book format.
