Step into the world of natural, heritage beauty with The Make-Your-Own Cosmetics & Fragrance Book for Australians by Elizabeth Francke.
Published by Doubleday, this rare and practical guide is a fantastic find for anyone interested in clean beauty, historical cosmetic formulation, or vintage self-care. Elizabeth Francke tailored this book specifically for the Australian climate and lifestyle, offering comprehensive instructions on how to craft your own skincare, hair treatments, perfumes, and cosmetics right in your own kitchen using accessible ingredients.
From making soothing herbal lotions and cold creams to blending custom floral fragrances, essential oil perfumes, and natural makeup bases, this book is packed with vintage wisdom. It serves as both a nostalgic look at the roots of the Australian natural beauty movement and a wonderful reference guide for modern green beauty enthusiasts, homesteaders, and DIY crafters.
