The trend towards a conscious relationship with body and mind is causing more and more people to turn to natural healing and aromatic substances. Essential oils play an important role in this. Many people would like to produce their own oil – with specially selected raw materials, without chemical additives and with an individual scent. The authors show in detail and in a hands-on approach how to successfully compose natural oils. The individual procedures and the necessary equipment for oil extraction are clearly presented and supplemented with pictures. For 140 indigenous and exotic plants and herbs, detailed information is given on processing, harvesting time and effects. The wide range of possible uses is illustrated by over 50 basic recipes: from products for face and body care – such as bath additives, massage oils, face masks, creams, aftershave, tonic, hair shampoo and soap – to liqueurs, spice oils, aromatisation of tea, inhalations, room sprays and sauna infusions to perfumes. A richly illustrated practical handbook for pampering the senses.
