Description

“A plant-based diet makes you beautiful on the inside, and Plant-Powered Beauty gives you the tools you need to make sure you’re giving your skin the best on the outside.” —Bobbi Brown

Plant-Powered Beauty speaks to my soul. It’s an intelligently and beautifully written book, which will serve to both educate and inspire you to go as natural as possible with your beauty regiment. Amy and Christina encourage us to harness the power of plants for healing and healthy glowing skin. Right up my street!” —Sophie Uliano, New York Times bestselling author of Gorgeously Green and host on the Hallmark Channel

***

Have you ever looked at the back of your facial moisturizer or body cream and, despite whatever it claims about “natural” ingredients on the front of the package, seen complicated additives like this?

Isopropyl Myristate, Hydrolyzed Elastin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Sodium Benzoate, Triethanolamine, Diazolidinyl Urea,(Red 40) CI74.340

Mass-produced synthetic beauty products make it difficult to know exactly what you’re applying to your skin—or how you’ll react to them. As a result, they’re rarely the best choice for your skin.

Plant-Powered BeautyThe Essential Guide to Using Plant-Based Ingredients for Health, Wellness, and Personal Skincare is a long-awaited resource for those who are ready to harness the power of plant-based energy to maintain their natural beauty and promote health and well-being.

At the heart of Plant-Powered Beauty, readers will find more than 50 easy-to-follow recipes to make their own plant-based skincare and beauty products, such as:

  • Almond Milk Face Cleanser
  • Anti-Aging Facial Scrub
  • Acne Gel
  • Choc-o-Mint Lip Balm
  • Coconut Whip Makeup Remover
  • Vitamin-Rich Hair Boost Scalp Serum
  • Quick & Fresh Cucumber-Thyme Body Scrub
  • Moisturizing Body Oil for Super Dry Skin
  • Natural Mouthwash

With tips and guidance from two seasoned aromatherapists and natural beauty experts, authors Amy Galper and Christina Daigneault also show readers how to deconstruct beauty labels, parse ingredient lists, make informed decisions about the products they use, and better understand how their skin works.

Plant-Powered Beauty unlocks sought-after wisdom for all aspects of plant-based personal skincare and celebrates the shift in beauty trends, bringing us back to natural beauty and reconnecting us with plants and healthy choices.
