Parker is a hands-on guide to working with fixed plant oils for skin care, cosmetics, and massage. Drawing on botanical knowledge and practical formulation experience, Parker explains how oils function in topical preparations and how they can be combined to create simple, effective personal-care products at home. Covering more than ninety common and lesser-known oils, the book details their sources, properties, and traditional uses, offering readers a clear foundation for experimenting with their own blends.\nDesigned as part of Process Media’s Self-Reliance Series, the book emphasizes accessible, do-it-yourself techniques and straightforward reference information. Readers will find guidance on selecting oils for different skin types, blending for fragrance and texture, and building basic formulations for lotions, salves, and massage oils. Parker, founder of the skincare company Solum \u0026amp; Herbe, brings professional insight into the practical use of botanical oils while maintaining an approachable, instructional tone.\nCombining reference material with step-by-step recipes, Power of the Seed serves as both an introduction to plant-based cosmetic formulation and a reference for readers interested in natural personal-care practices. It will appeal to those exploring DIY skincare, herbalism, aromatherapy, and small-scale cosmetic crafting.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1934170542\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1934170542.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Parker, Susan M.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
