It has no formulas at all
If you are looking for a book that explains various assets, waxes, emulsifiers etc this is the book. But if you are looking for formulations. These is not the book for you

Highly recommended for those Looking to start their own business manufacturing natural cosmetics.
An outstanding comprehensive primer on formualtion of natural cosmetics. Highly recommend to anyone who is interested in this field. You don't have to be a chemical engineer to understand the content, rather you should possesses some background in chemistry and a passion to learn more. Recommendation that this purchase be accompanied by "Handbook of Natural Ingredients" br Dr. Anthony Dweck
