This is an exciting development for Soapcraft Aromatics & More. Most of our recipes have bought over from the old site Aromatics and More. The original recipes were developed by Rebecca Midkiff our old owner who now owns DIY Cosmetics from the USA. Rebecca has given me her kind permission to continue to use these recipes. Any of the products not found on our website may be found at DIY Cosmetics.
