Handmade products are fun to use and great to give as gifts!
The Idiot’s Guides: Making Natural Beauty Products by Sally Trew gives detailed step by step instructions for a wide array of products. The book itself would be a good gift for a crafty friend or family member. Or if you’re so inclined, you can get the book for yourself and make gifts to give to others and, of course, you’ll want to keep some for yourself.

- Lip balm
- Bath Bombs
And, it includes many products that I never thought I could make myself:

I’m excited to give some of these fun projects a try!
