BODYCRAFT

Down the centuries poets have eulogised beauty, minstrels have sung of it, artists have tried to capture it on canvas and men and women spend billions of dollars each year all over the world in the search for beautiful skin and thick glossy hair .
The production and making of skin and hair preparations is a very big business but unfortunately, a large percentage of commercial products contain ingredients that may, used over time, be injurious to our health. 
We may have a specific reason to begin a search for a more natural way and a valid reason is that we want to know exactly what we are putting onto our skin. Skin is the largest organ of our body and we need to know that we are feeding it as carefully as we do the food we swallow—it’s an interesting exercise to read the label on a shop bought moisturiser for instance and to consider whether or not we would put the contents into our mouths! 

You will feel enriched beyond measure when you, your home and your family and friends are using your carefully and lovingly made products to improve your lives. It is a very special experience to see the raw materials transformed into beautiful and richly scented creams, perfumes, shampoos and other lovely things. The big bonus is that it's not difficult and it's not expensive. The making of all the preparations in this book can take place at the kitchen stove and sink. The recipes are no more difficult than cooking a meal and are often much simpler. Whether you are new to toiletry making or just looking for some new ideas, we hope that this book will be your guide to making professional, natural products
