From French DIY wellness expert Émilie Hébert and natural care midwife
Hélène Boyé comes a superb easy-to-follow recipe book to create clean,
natural care products for babies, mothers-to-be, and new moms.
Why trust your baby's care--or your own--to the chemical-laden products
with unpronounceable names on supermarket shelves? The fantastic guide
to feeling good and looking good that upcoming and new French mothers
rely on to care for themselves and their little ones is now in English
for the very first time. Inside you'll find more than forty
tried-and-true original, stress-free recipes to create health, wellness,
and beauty products that utilize clean, organic ingredients that you may
already own.
Remedies for women in all stages of pregnancy and early motherhood are
included and offer action plans to manage hormones, prevent or treat
stretch marks, activate blood circulation, promote hair growth, and
more, as well as to create crucial care products for children in their
first year, such as protective balms for delicate newborn skin,
calendula and oat baths to treat rashes and irritation, and soothing
salves to heal baby acne.
Complementing the wealth of recipes is detailed information on the
ecological, health, and happiness benefits of natural care, guidance for
reading labels to detect harmful synthetics and toxins, and thoughtful
tips on wellbeing. This beautifully designed classic is crucial to have
on-hand and will empower women everywhere to safely, and swiftly, take
care of their bodies and their babies.
