Ebook: What you can make with the Popular Bath & Body Book

Submitted by admin on November 8, 2009 – 7:08 amNo Comment

You can make almost any daily-use product you can think of using this method. The foundational recipes are body lotion, shampoo and conditioner, bath salts, body oil, exfoliating scrub, shower gel, alcohol-free body mist, and body powder.

But the recipes are the least part of the book. The real excitement comes from creatively designing and customizing your products beyond the basic. For example, I give you ideas for:

* Adding advanced ingredients, such as silk and shimmer
* Packing your products with super moisturizing power
* Designing your own fragrance blends with a beginner-friendly blending technique
* Recreating discontinued Bath and Body Works and Victoria’s Secret products
* Getting started with natural essential oils and aromatherapy with a few simple blending recipes

But I want to stress that I don’t do the thinking for you. Instead, I help you design your own recipes by helping you build on the basics. That’s much more fun.
The best quality of daily-use products possible

I truly believe that using my technique will give you the best quality of daily-use products possible. I cannot teach you anything that borders on dermatology; I am not a doctor, just a hobbyist.

But the products you use every day, such as shower gel, lotion, and shampoo, will come out so high in quality, you will never set foot in another Bath and Body Works again.

You can also make great gifts.

But you knew that, right? It’s really fun to present your friends and family with custom-scented stuff — I made a laundry-based toiletries set for my sister, who loves to clean and loves the scent of cleaning products. She did like the products, but also loved the fact that I designed it for her, using a trait of her personality that she is most proud of. You can easily do the same thing.
