a small book - with a review of the basics and a range of recipes - good for someone who does not want a large book to read through and a reference for some interesting recipes
This was good. It was a very quick read. I think I read it on the way while Nathan took us for errands. I gave it a three just because so much of the book was for beginers and I did not learn anything new except some things to do with bubble wrap. After making soap this past year I have decided what I like and don't like in a soap and though the recipes look good. I think I am happier with ours.
I loved the recipes in this book, lots of creative ideas, but the title is quite misleading. Most of the recipes contained 'fragrance oils' and a suggested supplier. These are not essential oils, but rather synthetic and natural fragrance blends with unlisted ingredients - not something I would consider 'natural'.
I'm of two minds about this book. While I did enjoy the photos, and the author's enthusiasm is contagious, I was looking for natural recipes and did not find many here with so many additions of "fragrance oil"
