Summary: The beauty of Mother Nature
Review: I am an avid beauty student and have learned a lot of neat recipes from this book. Although I've only had it for three days, I cannot wait to go back home to go through the recipes. Ingredients and recommendations are well explained and are clearly targetted to your skin type. The only down point is it doesn't contain an index (or at least my copy didn't have one) which makes it hard to find the recipes of ingredients you have. One point of caution... don't try all recipes at once. My face was over pampered due to my excitement. Enjoy, it's a great book to have in anyone's collection!

Summary: A beautiful book indeed!
Review: I first heard about this book from Dr. Weil's website. My fiance then organized an entire spa day based on recipes from this book. It was the best spa ever and I felt so good about myself afterwards. It has taught both of us alot about essential oils and the benefits of natural products such as honey and yogurt. Why pay $400 for spa day when you can have it exactly the way you like it at home? Learn the secrets of spa recipes from this book. It covers body wraps, facials, shampoo conditioner, baths, moisturizer, there's even a cellulite reducing recipe! I highly recommend it.

Summary: The Most Beautiful Book I have ever Seen...
Review: I honestly would like to say that Dawn Gallagher's book is the most beautiful book that I have ever seen. Not only is she a very sincere and special person, but her love for nature and of inner beauty is truly inspiring. I would recommend this book to anyone, and I have personally ordered 5 copies for my freinds and family.

Summary: Delicious and wholesome recipes!
Review: I loved this book. Introduced me to using essential oils and natural beauty products for my skin. The recipes are easy to work up and are so "natural" one can eat them. And, they work too!

Summary: Snooze... not the best book on this subject
Review: There are vastly better books out there for natural beauty recipes. This book, unfortunately, is an ego trip for the model-author, with often impractical or unimaginative recipes.

Summary: Be good to yourself!
Review: This book is, in a word, amazing. Ms. Gallagher has simplified the natural beauty regime while, at the same time, exhibited a genuine concern for our bruised ecosystem. Recipes, meditations and the author's own invaluable insights from a successful career in the modeling field combine to make this book an absolute must-have for one's personal library.(Not to mention, the perfect gift....). This is the perfect tome to accompany a "beauty night" with your friends or an evening of solitude where all one needs is the perfect facial mask, bath oils and meditative inspirations. Buy it for yourself and everyone else you care for-it is the ideal prescription for solace and renewal...

Summary: Just the book I needed to read as I turn 45
Review: This is just the book I needed to read as I look forward to turning 45 at the end of this month-a book that reminds me that one can be beautiful at any age. The pictures are gorgeous and the homespun recipes are fun and interesting, but what I liked best about the book was the liberal sprinkling of interesting quotes on beauty, as well as the author's personal views reflected throughout the text. Two of my favorites: "Beauty is not in the face; it is a light in the heart;" a quote by Kahlil Gibran, and "There is beauty in intelligence and power, and in the maturity from which they are derived;" by Gallagher herself. I would recommend this book to anyone who needs to be calmed, pampered, coddled, and caressed--especially if you have to do these things for yourself!!
