Recent Arrivals: The Natural Beauty Book by Anne Akers Johnson

by Ann-Katrina

Recent Arrivals chronicles the books that have made their way onto the Today, I Read… bookshelf. Here’s the latest arrival: The Natural Beauty Book by Anne Akers Johnson

Natural Beauty Book

First line: It will come as no surprise to you that natural body care starts on the inside.

Initial thoughts: Because every girl needs a little pampering every now and again, I squealed a little when I checked the mail and saw it.

It’s by no means a long or tedious book (I giggled a few times while skimming the recipes), it’s beautifully designed, and most of the "concoctions" look simple to prepare.

Plus, I love the included spa goodies and can’t wait to give those a try.

I took a couple pictures because, how cool is it that the book matches my bed cover? (Random. Yes, I know.)
