Natural Formulas for homemade beauty products

Making your own natural beauty preparations is a very rewarding experience. The results make the extra effort worth it.

Precautions when using natural raw materials:

When working with natural raw materials it is important to remember that the materials can be very powerful, potent and hazardous. They can cause skin reactions, sneezing, and other irritations. If you have sensitive skin or asthma it is recommended that you wear gloves and a dust mask while handling dried herbs, essential oils and other natural raw materials. Sometimes a certain herb or essential oil can cause contact dermatitis. Contact dermatitis is an uncomfortable skin condition that wears off within hours of non contact with the irritant. It is advisable during this time to wash the skin in pure water and not apply any thing to the skin.
