We try to give you a variety of quality natural skin care recipes here at beauty-soap-and-bubbles.com. We hope that there is a recipe to suit all skin types and one which will suit everyone. Before you begin, first make sure you have the right ingredients, a weighing scale if needed, a liquid measure if required, a small bowl to mix, pans for melting waxes and butters or a micro, and lastly, and sometimes the one people forget, a storage jar to contain the finished product.

If you are including essential oils in your skin care recipe, then use a dark bottle or jar, as sunlight can destroy the essential oils, leaving you with a beauty product that not only doesn’t work but won‘t smell as nice.

The storage jar for any beauty product is so important. Think about it! Your home-made beauty recipes may sit on your dressing table; maybe they are small enough to fit in your handbag to be brought out and admired by friends or maybe they will sit colourfully in your bathroom. This is the reason you should choose your storage jars with care and make sure they are not only practical but attractive too.

Storage jars come in all shapes and sizes so it’s really down to you to decide what you want it for. For instance if you are making our home-made lip gloss then you should use a small tub for storage. However if you are making some of our home-made bath salts then you will require a bigger glass jar.

You can buy storage jars very cheaply; if you make all your own home-made products then buying in bulk may save you money.

Have a look at this website which has some attractive storage bottles which are ideal including loads of raw material for your own natural skin care recipes. Looking for a double boiler or maybe a thermometer, or how about some strawberry flavour oil for your lip gloss, then look no further than :
