Make your own sustainable beauty products that are as good for the earth as they are for your skin.

We are all beginning to think about sustainability in every aspect of our lives. The beauty industry is no different, with a growing movement of consumers looking for cleaner and greener products. Using simple ingredients and ancient practices, Sustainable Beauty shows you how to transform food scraps and everyday pantry ingredients into clean, green products for your skin, hair, and nails.

This book addresses beauty from the inside out by encouraging environmental and ethical practices such as reducing food and water waste and combatting single-use plastics. All seventy-five recipes include plant-based ingredients such as fruit and vegetable peels and seeds for making your own gentle, nourishing soaps, moisturizers, shampoos, lip scrubs, cleansers, bath salts, and more.

Embrace conscious consumerism in your day-to-day life with Sustainable Beauty.
