Book Worm Wednesday - Cosmo Girl! Make it Yourself

Wednesday, January 4, 2012

Since my Christmas gift posts for bath salts, sugar scrub cubes, bath fizzies, and melt and pour soaps were so popular in the past few weeks, I wanted to share a book that would tell you how to make an assortment of  simple beauty products in your own home.

Cosmo Girl!
Make it Yourself
50 Fun and Funky Projects

{source}
You can try your hand at beauty recipes like...

avacado mask for dry hair 
leave-in conditioner
healing hand scrub
honey and almond body scrub
bath soaks
chocolate mint cookie foot scrub
peppermint bath salts
eggnog body lotion
cocoa butter bonbons
surprise soaps
fizzy bath bombs
lip gloss
solid perfume

While things like this are great to try out for yourself, keep them in mind to give as gifts too. 
(My Aunt and cousins were actually fighting over the different flavors of soap that I gave them for Christmas!)

In addition to the beauty projects, this book is divided into clothing and accessory sections as well. And even though most of the offerings may seem a little "simple" (remember, it is marketed to teens) there are a few interesting ideas that you may be able to use as inspiration.
