Do you love the feel of a good lotion but find
yourself unhappy with the cost, or wary of the chemical
ingredients? Do you ever wonder if you could make it for
yourself at home? Are you afraid to try because the
lotion might not turn out well, or might even be
unsafe?
Anne L. Watson's "Smart Soapmaking" was the
first book based on modern techniques that eliminate the
drudgery and guesswork from home soapmaking. Now, by
popular demand, she continues her handcraft cosmetics
revolution with the first practical, comprehensive book
on making lotion from scratch.
Whether you want to
make lotion for personal use or to sell, Anne allays any
fears with methods that are proven safe and approved by
experts, yet simple and easy enough to perform in your
kitchen. You'll soon be making lotion that's better than
any you've been buying, and at a fraction of the cost.
