Book description
Expensive modern skin treatments and cosmetics are accompanied by
slick marketing campaigns that equate them with glamour, happiness and
health. But how healthy are they? What do they contain and what are
they really doing to your skin? Your skin rapidly absorbs chemicals
and passes them into your bloodstream, so why would you put anything
on your skin that you wouldn't be prepared to eat?
Feeding Your Skin is full of easy and delicious recipes for
natural beauty treatments that you can make from everyday ingredients:
from cleansers, toners, moisturisers, exfoliants, masks and lip balms,
through to nail treatments, shampoos, sunscreens and even deodorants.
In fact, everything you need to keep your face and body beautiful and healthy.
Carla Oates has worked as a freelance writer for the last eight

with her husband and two children.
