Making Soaps & Scents: Soaps, Shampoos, Perfumes & Splashes You Can Make at Home Hardcover - 1999

by Catherine Bardey


From the publisher

With this book, it is easy to create soothing suds and a wide variety of perfumes, colognes and splashes that moisturize, revitalize and aromatize skin and hair.

Following the simple step-by-step directions, readers can make all the body products of their dreams, from Buttermilk Oatmeal Soap and Tangerine Cocoa Bar to Lemon Lavender Shampoo. Each recipe also points out how readers can improvise and create their own special soaps and scents.

A special section details the techniques of the world's most famous fragrance producers and traces perfume history. The book includes a resource directory, safety hints and ways to make your soaps more earth-friendly.

First line

Not always in the shape of the Moisturizing Honey Almond Soap with Nutmeg or even the Cleansing Lavender Key Lime Soap flecked with purple petals and delicately scented with citrus aroma, mind you, but soap, a substance that lathers and cleans.
