Customer Reviews

Seriously?
1. This is a pamphlet, not a book. It contains as much information as a small New York Times article.

2. You can get all the information in this pamphlet off the interweb. Google it.

Seriously, save yourself the money, spend 10 minutes on the interweb and find all the recipes and guides yourself.

A simple and informative booklet
This booklet has a well-organized array of hand creams and treatments that are pretty simple to make. Because of the lack of preservatives in the formulas, most of the finished products have a limited shelf life and need to be kept in the refrigerator. I would say that people who suffer from dry, chapped hands will find this book most helpful.

Making Herbal Hand Creams and Salves
This should be put in a section for pamphlets and not books :) It wasnt expensive, so that is good. And it does have some nice little recipes for hand treatments. I do like it. I should of just paid attention to the length of the book so it wouldnt of been a surprise when I openened my package. I ordered it with another book and at first thought they only sent one of them, then realized this was hiding behind the packing slip, lol. It is informative but you can breeze through the whole thing in about 30 minutes or an hour at most. But it is informative and unlike other recipe books, it does actually tell you how much to use of each ingredient to make a actual product.
