Bountifully Beautiful
To achieve a peaches and cream complexion, a woman should start with...peaches and cream. Or, if peaches aren’t in season, try another fruit. Apples and oranges, pineapple and papaya, bananas or blackberries can all play a part in a bountiful beauty regimen. Organic Body Care Recipes by Stephanie Tourles has 175 homemade herbal formulas to sooth, smooth and scrub skin, hair and spirits.
Filled cover to cover with an abundance of interesting, useful information about about skin, skin care, organics and their ingredients, the book is a head-to-toe guide to beautification and edification.
There are wrinkle chasers and body butter, cleansing creams and lip balms, massage oils and body polishers, hand exfoliants and foot deoderizers. For the tub, choose from bath bags, bath foams, bath salts and bath soaks. For a pearly smile, make salt and soda toothpaste and follow with the strawberry tooth brightener.
For facial firming, toning and cleansing, try masks of egg whites, papaya, yogurt, avocado and buttermilk, and,of course, peaches and cream. Astringents come in parsley and peppermint.
Apply a fennel soother for hair, soothe swollen eyes with a chilled cucumber tonic, apply Bloomin’ Belly Butter to reduce stretch marks or dab on Bite-Me-Not Balm to repel insects.
There are Oganic Body Care Recipes for herbal love potions and delicate body parts. In addition to face and body care, one chapter is devoted to physical discomforts like colds and headaches. Another offers an apothecary of ingredients, a descriptive list of essentials and how they perform.
Clear and current, well written and carefully presented, Organic Body Care Recipes is a smart resource and an eminently useful reference for being beautiful organically.
