Review: The Natural Soap Making Book for Beginners - Really nice book. Easy to use and read. Every recipe is on double-page - really useful - unfortunately, no every soap making book has that. So then you do not have to browse...I really love the natural colourant list. Almost everything is in ounces. There is measurement conversions but not measurement as 8.3oz or 4.3oz etc. - another reason to buy new scale with g, oz etc. :)...anyway, proper scale is needed for exact measuments which is essential for soap making. Review: Great beginner soapmaking book - The Natural Soap Making Book for Beginners. Do-It-Yourself Soaps using all-natural Herbs, spices and essential oils. Chapter one through chapter four is your soap making primer. Chapters five and six techniques and tutorials. Chapter seven through eleven recipes. This is a well written soap making book full of photos and recipes. Being a beginner soap maker I didn’t get lost at all with this book. There is also fragrance wheel chart included. You will find included in the book recipes for Beer Soap, acne soap, candy cane, pumpkin spice soap and even pet soap to name a few. With clear instructions included with each soap recipe. It was for me like baking a cake with all the directions. I chose the nut free soap recipe included in the book for my first soap. This recipe uses Babassu oil instead of coconut oil for those of us who are sensitive to coconut oil. I had no difficulties. And if I did have any there is a section in the back for trouble shooting with pictures. I’m glad I purchased this book and recommend it for you!
