I love this book so-so-so much. I have many reasons and one of them is this book contained easier recipe to make. Trust me, the recipe is so easy, you can buy the ingredients at mall and start making it on the spot. Oh! It is also fun to try the recipes one by one. Maybe because I am a girl, I found beauty is so important to me and the knowledge of making my own cosmetics will help me someday. But, I need to remind you that there are ingredients in this book not common in Malaysia and you might consider to search them at ColdStorage. I wish all of you good luck on your cosmetics making and appreciate the beauty that God gave us.

Just like recipe book, all ingredients with exact amount listed down and followed by steps 

Dandelion skin tonic. Good for normal skin as toner

Fruits are always good for our body as well as our skin. In fact, our skin loves fruits so much that it will turn moist and soft if you apply the fruits facial regularly. Not only fruits, how about lettuce? Never heard of it? Well, you heard it now. They soften your face in very cheap price

How about making your own lip gloss and lip tint? It is easy, natural and fun! 

Clockwise from left; beetroot lip tint, fabulous face powder, glossy lip gloss and lavender

Heavy  Smokey-eyes won't be problem to clean anymore after you learn how to make your own eye make up remover. After that, why don't you put cucumber refreshing gel on your face, It is cold and soothing

Look at the column on the left. Skin S.O.S essentials. What exactly you need to do if your skin breakout. Fix it natural way

Cucumber mask anyone?

Our feet are so precious. We don't want our feet age faster than the rest of our body.  Take good care of them from now on

Having fun at the beach however the after - effect totally unbearable? Don't worry. Apart from sticky sunblock you are wearing, why don't you gather several ingredients and follow recipe above

Tired searching deodorant that suit you? Maybe you should try lavender deodorant 

At-home spa essentials. You can always get all of these in one packaging. Try Guardian, Watson or The Bodyshop

Rose is such a beautiful flower with great smell. In fact it good for calming down your body.  

Making your own beauty essential is great but you still need to do it right. Let start with the equipment

This is really important! No matter how natural your cosmetics are, it is not guarantee 100% suitable for your skin. Just think, each of us have different amount of chemicals in our body, and that chemicals might react strongly to any of the ingredients. Yes, we call it allergic and yes, we don't want it on us. Let be careful and do the patch test first 

Just like cooking, making cosmetics also have regular techniques like double boiler
