What books or multimedia items are available that will help me make my own cosmetics (makeup) and skincare?
First, most cosmetics are going to have natural or organic ingredients, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t professional. But I still understand what you’re saying. A great site for getting the tools and ingredients for many makeups and cosmetics is http://www.makingcosmetics.com. I ran across this ebook that is for sale at http://www.stylecareer.com/cosmetics_maker.shtml which sounds a bit more professional but I have not read it (and honestly, the whole idea of paying for an ebook is a bit sketchy to me). Perhaps one thing that might help are some books about the cosmetic industry in general. Here are Amazon links to two books, “Color Stories” and “The Cosmetic Industry”.
