A DIY Beauty Recipe Book

June 3, 2019

Affiliate Links PR Sample

Have you ever made your own beauty products at home? I recently received an advanced copy of the book  DIY Beauty by Ina de Clercq and I’m feeling inspired. The book is published by Simon and Schuster’s Adams Media and it’s available on June 4, 2019. Pick up your copy if you’re like me and you love experimenting and making lotions and potions. I think it would be fun to get together with a few girlfriends and mix up a few batches to share.

DIY Beauty Book

DIY Beauty has recipes for face masks, hair products, skincare products, deodorant, makeup and bath products. The recipes allow you to understand what exactly is in your product and how to customize each recipe to fit your specific needs. In addition, it contains instructions on how to make so many cult favorites. It will save you money by making these products at home.

I feel like summer is the perfect time to experiment with making some products on my own. With the kids out of school for the summer, you could spend a day making some fun bath bombs for everyone to enjoy their summer baths.

You can make homemade bath bombs such as these inspired by Lush’s Intergalactic ones

The book offers recipes for 100 products that are inspired by favorites from brands such as Kiehls, Dr. Jart+, Tom Ford, Moroccanoil, Herbivore and more. But before you get started crafting your own products you’ll want to read the first chapter. Ina explains the tools needed, along with where to purchase, how to use them and tips for packaging and storage.

Why do you need DIY Beauty?

All-natural ingredients are used for each recipe. The beauty of creating your own products is that you know EXACTLY what’s in them. Nothing is hidden within words that you can’t pronounce. I’ve been looking on Amazon for some of the ingredients that I want to pick up along with some really fun empty containers to put my products in (*see below). Think of all the gifts you could make at home too… Use fun labels and pretty packaging and you’re all set to make someone else’s day!

This twist-up lip scrub (inspired by Dior’s Lip Sugar Scrub) is just what I need to keep my lips soft and smooth and ready for lipstick.

This book is the perfect addition to my beauty arsenal. DIY Beauty is available June 4, 2019. You can purchase in stores or purchase now over on Amazon. The book can save you money on popular beauty products by making your own at home. You’ll have a hard time choosing which product to make first. It just may satisfy the inner scientist in you too!

Below are some of the fun things I found on Amazon for DIY Beauty that you may want to pick up too! These are affiliate links and support my blog. Thanks for your continued support.

    This would be a fun book to have. I think it would make a great grad present with a few supplies. I have a few grad parties for high schoolers so I’ll have to look into it.

    I’d love to learn how to make my own body scrub and bath bombs. I feel like those are two products that I could probably make way cheaper at home than what I pay for them at the stores.

Remember this pretty navy strapless dress? I can change up the look in the blink of the eye with my accessories. 

Today I added a lightweight olive color sweater wrap over my shoulders and a neutral cane wristlet. 

I find the little half sweater wrap to be the perfect touch. It adds interest, extra color and a tiny bit of warmth. It comes in dozens of colors and stripes too.

Patience is a virtue… I patiently waited (and s Patience is a virtue…

I patiently waited (and stalked) the website and brick and mortar stores until I finally found these cute (and extremely comfortable) suede sandals in my size. 🎉

They’re the perfect pairing with my new Lysse New York outfit! I’m feeling like I should be going somewhere warm and fun now.

My jewelry is Melinda Maria and you can use code StacieH for 10% off your order.✨

My purse is Spartina 449. Isn’t it divine?!💗

Just say SHOP and I will send you all the outfit details, but you must be following me to receive the message (it’s an IG rule).‼️ 

P.S. I’m 5’1” and mostly wear petites, but this outfit is regular misses sizes. The pants are cropped length on most.💖

Well this pretty dress does that for me!☺️

Comment SHOP for the link to this carefree outfit with sizing details.💖

And yes, it has pockets! To be honest, the only thing I ever put in the pockets are my hands. But when a dress doesn’t have them, I don’t feel as comfortable. Anybody else feel the same?😅

One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack-It Jacket. It’s a great option, especially when I’m on the go! #ad

It has adjustable elastic to cinch in the waist, a hood when I need it in the rain (this hair is a lot of work so I have to protect it)!😅

And the best part is that it can be rolled up into its zipper pouch and tossed it into my bag so I have it when I really need it! It came in handy on my boat ride yesterday!

It comes in several different colors as well as inclusive sizing, so there’s a jacket for everyone! Oh, and it makes a great gift too!

Just comment SHOP and I’ll send the link to your messages or use the link below to shop the Pack-It Jacket from @coldwatercreek 💖
