When it comes to our skin, nature knows how to soothe, smooth, hydrate, refresh, tone and feed us. What many don't know is that you don't have to spend a fortune on expensive beauty products in order to feed your skin - just a few well-chosen natural recipes can revitalise your face, hair and body. Here, Sophie Thompson - founder of Sister & Co. - shares with readers her nourishing recipes for simple and effective skincare.

When it comes to our skin, nature knows how to soothe, smooth, hydrate, refresh, tone and feed us. It probably won't come as any surprise that rose is not only soothing to the skin, but in traditional Chinese medicine it is soothing to our whole being. Seaweeds are packed with antioxidants that are good both to eat and to turn back the clock with our skin. Manuka honey gives hair softness while coffee is an incredible exfoliator (it really wakes up your skin).

Sister & Co teaches that you don't need to spend a fortune on expensive beauty products to feed your skin. All you need is a few ingredients that are available in your local supermarket and the alchemy can begin! Skin Food features 70 nourishing recipes which show you how to make luxurious skincare products from scratch, so you can fill those beautiful glass pots sitting in your bathroom with incredible scrubs, butters and salts. Make your own home into a spa, ease away the stress of the day, and bring yourself back to nature one scoop at a time.

Recipes include:
- Oatmeal, Honey & Chamomile Tea Facial Polish
- Grape & Almond Detox Face Mask
- Potato & Green Tea Revitalizing Eye Mask
- Brown Sugar & Vanilla Lip Scrub
- Olive Oil, Lemon & Sea Salt Foot Scrub
- Milk & Honey End-of-day Foot Soak

About the Author: Sophie Thompson is the founder of Sister & Co, stocked in Oliver Bonas, Anthropologie, Space NK and department stores, plus several independents. Sophie gave up her career as a lawyer after travelling to India and being given raw coconut oil there to clear up her skin. On returning home she couldn't find the same grade of coconut oil here and decided to source it herself, launching her first product in 2014. Now the range features incredible sounding products including almond milk bath soak with black cardamom and raw coconut lip tonic with lemon myrtle and wild mint.Find out more on Instagram @sisterandcoskinfood, Twitter @SisterandCo and at www.sisterandcompany.com.

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):

UK Delivery

Orders for delivery in the UK are normally despatched by Royal Mail, using the RM 48 Tracked Service with most orders delivered to you within a few days of placing your order with us. For larger parcels, Courier and Signed For delivery services may be used. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.

The Really Important Bit: Because we use tracked, courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be received during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.

First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)
2 Items & over @ £5.00 in total

Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Large multiple book orders and books over 2kg are often shipped via APC Overnight or similar, regardless of Postcode.

A really, really important Brexit bit: From 1st January 2021 shipments to EU addresses may incur additional costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery. If in any doubt, please check with your local Fed Ex office what, if any, additional costs will be applicable to your order - https://www.fedex.com

We use the same packaging materials for our overseas deliveries as we do those in the UK. In some cases, particularly large and heavy books, or books being shipped to remote areas, may incur an additional shipping charge - if this is the case with your order, we'll notify you as quickly as possible of these charges and to arrange the additional payment. You can of course cancel your order with an immediate refund should you not wish to accept these additional costs. Shipments to overseas territories may incur additional Duty & Tax costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery.
