Summary

This vintage book contains a collection of simple recipes for making a variety of cosmetic products ranging from powders and perfumes to creams and lotions. Written in simple, plain language and easy-to-follow, this volume will appeal to those with an interest in home-made cosmetics, and is  not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk.

    Popular author Taylor Clark draws on cutting-edge research in this enlightening exploration of stress—and  how to tackle it constructively. Using such divergent examples as Russian sub commanders and game show contestants, Clark shows that most people experience  stress the same way. Those who understand how to accept it without freezing can accomplish what needs to get done.  “The author makes some shrewd observations [and] he really knows how to write, too: the book is informative, engaging, and, in quite a few places, funny.”—Booklist
