The Big Book of Homemade Products for Your Skin, Health and Home: Easy, All-Natural DIY Projects Using Herbs, Flowers and Other Plants

This book is fantastic. It is one of my favorites. I love all the color photos! She explains different types of carrier oils, beeswax, Shea butter, essential oils, clays etc. She provides recipes that are easy to make. I love that her recipe also includes substitutions. I made the detangler for my granddaughters and they love it. It works perfectly! I plan to make more of her recipes. I highly recommend this book!

I am new to making homemade products and this book is my Bible for information on ingredients, equipment and step by step process. I high reccomend this book as a resource and reference as it is easy to read and understand.

Love this book. Great pictures with easy to follow instructions

Perfect book for anyone who enjoys the more natural things life has to offer! Super informative and gives great instructions.

So, I gave this book a 4 star because I really do not like the binding. It has a premier binding so the book is to stay open when using. I did not know this at 1st, but when it came to my attention, still don't like the binding! Looks like it will fall apart or tear the pages! But it hasn't. But everything else is a 5 star and beyond! So many useful recipes, and the materials and ingredients are easy to come by or grow yourself, for the most part. Just a beautiful book. Easy instructions and even warnings on when not to use certain ingredients for use on children and pets. I already do many recipes of my own using all natural ingredients and plants found in nature, but this did give more ideas and information. Love her books! Just can't say enough!!!

I am and always have been a really big book lover! I prefer books where I can turn the pages and keep in hand. It makes me stop and sit, read and relax! Down time, learning at the same time. This book is a soft paperback with 151 recipes. Jan Berry is actually the founder of the Blog The Nerdy Farm Wife. This book is full of beautiful pictures, the paper is nice and thicker than normal, the print is black on white and easy to read, most important to me.The recipes are in grams and also US cups drops etc. Great directions, and a description of each recipe, which is great! She is very detailed with each recipe. The book opens nicely and lays pretty flat for viewing and making the recipes. You can use a scale or not. There is a resource list in the back of the book. I sure hope this review was helpful to you, I want to try and make some of my own things with less chemicals in them. There also is a great Index page in the back for looking up any recipe by name you want to try. A keeper for sure, so worth buying this one! Have fun! Thanks for reading!

I so happy I ordered this book! I’m a maker with my own online store and I use this book and the recipes as a starting point for me to create new products. This book is great for the beginner who wants basic recipes and for the experienced as she has some terrrific ideas. Floral cleansing grains are my favorite. I can’t wait to make them.

I’m very happy with this book. I’ve tried a couple of recipes so far and am planning to try soap for the first time very soon. I actually downloaded an e-book from this author many years ago and forgot about it until I got this book and realized it was the same author. I had never infused oils with herbs before reading this book. I have tried the quick method and the long method and will be using the oils from the long method in my soap. If you like to make your own products this is a very good book.

Love it

This book is amazing! There is a recipe for absolutely anything you may need at home! It helps you create a lot healthier environment for you and your family! I love it!

This is one of those buy a hard copy after reading it on kindle type of books. The author knows her stuff. Well written and easy to follow. I will be making a lot of the recipes from this book. Highly recommend.

Llegó perfectamente, en fecha estipulada. Es un libro increíble, lleno de recetas naturales, incluso para perros!!!!! Viva Jan Barry y AMAZON!!!!!!!

El libro está escrito de forma sencilla y complementado con imágenes, para todos los fabricantes de cosméticos, desde principiantes hasta profesionales. Además, las hojas del libro huelen a algunas hierbas, por lo que siempre estarás feliz de volver a leer las recetas. :)
