Book Review And Giveaway – Girls Home Spa Lab

November 1, 2018 by Shellie Wilson 7 Comments

We love our DIY body recipes and I love the concept of setting up our tweens for DIY products too. Recently I asked my daughter to tell me what was the main ingredient in my facewash, her reply was, I don’t know mum but there is a whole list of chemicals that goes on and on. I hadn’t taken notice of what I was putting on my face because I had become so busy I just grabbed a store-bought facewash. Ugh I threw it away immediately and told my daughter to go and grab the coconut oil from the kitchen and we wiped away the grime with that. I want my daughter to value her skin and her health and this book is a great way to get started in teaching them that less is more. Not only is this book a great lesson for life, it’s also loads of fun for the girls too. They get to mix and create their own products.

It’s science, it’s health care, it’s fun!

The perfect gift for any tween girl passionate about self-care, this collection brims with 50 recipes for natural body care products, 25 craft projects for relaxation, yoga routines, and so much more!

This book would be perfect for a Girls Sleepover party. You could grab the ingredients and let the girls use the book to guide their own activities for the Sleepover party.

We are giving two lucky Craftgossip.com readers the chance to get their hands on this book. For your chance to win signup to our newsletter and comment below with one beauty tip or piece of advice you would share with a tween.

Take the time to wash your face each morning and night and moisturize with an oil free moisturizer.

That while their beauty comes from within, it can be really fun to mix up some natural products to care for their outside!

My girl would love this book! My tip is to wash your face with a mild cleanser (wash your hands first!). Use a non-comedogenic moisterizer for skin with a tendency to break out.

Less is more. You don’t need a lot of beauty care and makeup – just a little to enhance.

Self-Love Spell Bath Bomb: Venus Ritual for Witchcraft and Beauty Spells

In modern witchcraft, self-love is a revolutionary act of magic. Whether you’re deep in shadow work or simply craving a moment of softness, crafting a bath ritual around self-worth is one of the most powerful spells you can cast. This Self-Love Bath Bomb Spell channels the energy of Venus, Aphrodite, and divine feminine beauty, helping you draw in love, radiance, and inner peace.

Using sacred ingredients with metaphysical correspondences like rose, vanilla, and pink Himalayan salt, this spell bath bomb turns your tub into a temple of unconditional self-devotion. This is glamour magick from the inside out.

Purpose

To open the heart, boost confidence, and draw loving energy to yourself. Best used on a Friday (Venus day) or during the waxing moon.

Scent Meaning

Rose: Romantic, soft, divine feminine energy
Vanilla: Comfort, sweetness, emotional warmth

Color & Ingredient Symbolism

Pink Himalayan Salt: Love, purification, emotional healing
Strawberry or Hibiscus Powder: Passion, sweetness, beauty
Rose Petals: Attraction, self-devotion
Pink Color: Love, compassion, Venus and Aphrodite energy

Ingredients

1 cup baking soda
1/2 cup citric acid
1/2 cup pink Himalayan salt
1 tbsp powdered strawberry or hibiscus
1 tsp dried rose petals
10 drops of rose essential oil
5 drops vanilla oil
Witch hazel in a spray bottle
Rose quartz chip (optional)

Instructions

Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl.
Mix essential oils into a small amount of melted carrier oil and stir into the bowl.

Spritz mixture with witch hazel until it holds together.
Press into molds, adding rose quartz to the center if using.

Gently speak or chant affirmations into the water.
Gaze into the mirror and say your name with love.
After the bath, write a letter to yourself as if you were your own soulmate.

Self-love spells are not vanity—they’re soul nourishment. By setting time aside to bathe in sacred energy, you’re reminding your heart of its inherent worth. Keep a journal nearby, and write any insights that surface. This witchcraft beauty ritual is more than skincare—it’s sacred spellwork for your soul.

Use this bath bomb any time you feel disconnected, unloved, or in need of a magical reset. The more you love yourself, the more the universe responds in kind.
