$10.95
Handmade Spa is a unique and comprehensive guide to replicating the luxury of a spa experience in your own home using natural, botanical preparations. Following on from the hugely successful Handmade Beauty, this is the second in the series of natural health and beauty books by cosmetic experts Juliette Goggin and Abi Righton. The book contains over 50 recipes, focusing on cosmetic treatments for skin, hair and body, as well as the creation of therapeutic spa accessories such as reed diffusers and wheat packs. The authors encourage the reader to explore their kitchen, garden and local shops for the natural products and active ingredients that will grant you the ability to create your very own home spa paradise. All are accompanied by step-by-step instructions and clear, illustrative photographs, enabling you to bring the entire realm of spa treatments, as well as the practice of mind and body self-care, into your own home. This unique guide includes some of the most creative and innovative thinking in botanical and cosmetic science, and reveals the importance of scent and 'fragrance families' in soothing, healing or rejuvenating the body and mind. A trip to a spa for a spot of pampering has always been seen as an expensive, one-off treat - until now.
Through over 40 natural recipes tailored to your mood, they show you exactly how to transform your home into a tranquil, relaxing retreat. With a focus on the relationship between scent and well-being, there are energizing citrus recipes, warming ginger and cinnamon preparations, relaxing lavender and soothing chamomile products, allowing you to choose the perfect treatment for the desired effect. From candle-making to simple massage techniques, incense-making to hot cloth cleansing, you will learn a range of spa techniques from experts with a wealth of knowledge and experience. The recipes use botanical ingredients, all of which are easily sourced from the home, garden or via the internet, making it easy to work through this extensive catalogue of natural recipes for face masks, bath oils, body scrubs, facial cleansers and hair treatments, as well as non-cosmetic, therapeutic products such as tea infusions, reed diffusers and scented candles - all accompanied by step-by-step guides and clear, illustrative photographs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are your items cruelty free and ethically sourced?
Absolutely! No animal testing here! We also take pride in ensuring the products we sell are sourced and obtained in a responsible and sustainable way.
How fast can I get my order?
While we have a shipping profile set for each item, we typically send out same or next day. Our customers always come first; we typically stop all work to get orders out as quickly as possible. Please note that we will work with FedEx if a quicker delivery is requested, just send a message! :)
Can I just cancel my order if I didn't receive it?
We worked really hard to offer products with attractive packaging, and to ship them quickly so we ask our customers to do their part to ensure they do everything they can to receive them.
If your package was marked delivered please check with others in your home, neighbors, or contact the local carrier.
If you still don't find your package, open a case with Etsy. We will not automatically issue a refund or cancel the order.
If your package is floating in the USPS stratosphere for more then 15 days we will file an insurance claim and try to resolve issues quickly. We do not reimburse before a case has been filed.
If your package was returned to us with an incorrect address, you will be required to cover the additional postage.
What's so important about reviews?
Reviews are everything to us! Reviews tell us if we are hitting the mark with our customer service in terms of quality of product, service and speed of shipping.
If you feel can't leave a 5-star review please contact us immediately with any issues so we can try to resolve them and ensure you love your purchase!
In order for an Etsy seller to make up for one 4-star review we must receive 19 5-star reviews! So even if we have a happy customer with 4 stars it really hurts us sellers to receive anything less than 5 stars.
What type of materials do you use to pack and ship orders?
We like to use biodegradable materials as often as possible. Oftentimes we will reuse and recycle packing materials from vendors to help reduce waste in landfills.
