I am SO impressed with Heather’s new book, DIY Organic Beauty Recipes!!! I immediately printed it out and slid the sheets into a page-protected binder. This book is right up my alley as it is super thorough (176 pages!) and is educational to boot. Not simply filled with (really great) recipes, but the why’s of the ingredients behind them, and easy-to-understand instructions with color photos for each of the 50+ recipes included.
If you have wanted to learn how to make your own toxin-free personal care products such as teeth whitener, shampoo, lotions, deodorants, lip balms - and even stretch mark diminisher - then wait no longer! Until December 31st you can save 30% by clicking here and using code HOLIDAY20.
Tried-and-True Fail-Safe Recipes
Not only is each recipe in DIY Organic Beauty Recipes made using natural ingredients and preservatives that make them safe for children, they are also fail-safe.
Below you see an image of the Beetroot Lip & Cheek Tint. Here is what Heather has to say about her tried-and-true methods:
I’ve spent hundreds and hundreds and of dollars (Shh! Don’t tell the hubs!) testing recipes I found on Pinterest, websites and in beauty books. It’s surprising how many simply don’t work. They seem plausible. There’s no obvious reason they wouldn’t work . . . and yet the finished product is disappointing or even flat out unusable.
Take this lip/cheek tint, for example. Though most recipes call for butters and waxes as the base for a tint like this, these mediums can’t hold the vibrancy of this color – they turn light pink and become nearly invisible as they cool. Fortunately after many failed tests I finally figured out how to preserve the deep, jewel tones and now you can make it right the first time!
Make Some Knock-Out Gifts
Are you looking for hand-made gifts? How about Mint Chocolate Body Butter, Bath Bombs, or Soothing Bath Salts? Or maybe Tinted Lip Balm or Tallow Soap? You’ll have many options to choose from in DIY Organic Beauty Recipes.
Swap Out Those Harmful Products for Healthy Ones That Work
Does it bother you to use toothpaste with fluoride? Deodorant with aluminum? Body soap with sodium laurel sulphate? Swap out your current products for products you can feel guilt-free about.
Make your own with natural ingredients that are safe to eat.
Make Products That Last (without the chemicals!)
Heather has worked hard to ensure the products you invest the time to make will last without chemical preservation. You don’t have to worry about making small batches each week. Save yourself the trouble and time investment by doing it right the first time with recipes from DIY Organic Beauty Recipes.
Bonus: Video Tutorials
I am one of those people who prefer to watch someone else do it first. So I am super excited that Heather has videos for us showing us how to make:
- Ultra lathering bar soap
- White chocolate mint lotions bars
- Whipped body butter
- Lotion bars
- Eye makeup remover
