Synopsis:

This is a perfect introduction to the art of natural soap-making, with fabulous colour photographs. It features fun yet practical soaps for all the family, from soap balls to chunky rope soap and from cinnamon and orange to honey and oatmeal. It includes luxurious soaps purely for pleasure, including pretty rose-heart soaps and frankincense and myrrh soap. It offers helpful advice on equipment, ingredients, oils and fragrances. In this handy book, clear step-by-step instructions and photographs take you through each stage of the soap-making process. There is also invaluable guidance on tools and equipment, materials and ingredients and safety procedures. Tatyana Hill, a leading soap-maker, provides fifteen unique soap recipes, using only pure ingredients, such as goat's milk & almond soap for moisturizing and cinnamon seed soap for exfoliation. There are also soaps for utter self-indulgence. So, relax with lavender olive oil soap, revive with spicy clove soap or luxuriate with Neapolitan bars. In this book, you will find the inspiration and know-how to make natural, yet beautiful, soaps.

About the Author: Tatyana Hill studied art and design at the University of Syracuse in New York. In 1993 she moved to London where she started an interior design company. Fascinated with natural body care, but unable to find products for her clients that were both aesthetically pleasing and completely natural, she developed a unique range of handmade toiletries herself, using only natural ingredients. Today, her line, Savonnerie, is one of the most popular and sought-after brands of natural soaps and other skincare products in the United Kingdom.
