The 4th Edition is here! It's packed with information, recipes & step-by-step methods so that you can make your own natural, tailor-made products!

This fully updated and revised 4th Edition of the 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.

Loved by both beginners and more advanced customers who make their own products, the Guide offers insider secrets to making your own natural creams and cosmetics including information on which vegetable oils, moisturisers and preservatives to use…

As well as information, recipes and step-by-step methods for making your own natural creams, lotions, cleansers, peelers, exfoliates, skin toners, gels, ointments, lip balms, sun creams & lotions, skin & massages oils, 2-in-1 shampoo & conditioners, shower gels & liquid soaps, face masks, toothpastes & mouth washes…

PLUS Information on essential oils & absolutes. How to use them safely, recipes for natural perfumes, using essential oils and absolutes in the home and all you need to know about adding fragrances to creams & gels!

The handy Conversion Tables at the end of the book help you to convert some popular raw materials, including essential oils, from millilitres to grams and US to metric. The Aromantic Colours Conversion Table is fully updated and there is a new section on how to measure our Colours accurately with 2ml scoops.

Note to customers who have bought the Revised 3rd Edition: this book has changed substantially and is a new edition. Some chapters have not changed much or at all. Generally Recipes containing Preservatives have all been updated (dosage tables are referred to and Preservatives are all added in Third Stage) and some temperature information in recipes and methods have changed (Fourth Stage is now 35 degrees celsius - it was previously 30-25 degrees), as well as the amount of essential oils and CO2 extracts in some recipes.
