LEARN HOW TO FORMULATE AND MAKE YOUR OWN DIY SKINCARE – SOAP, LOTION, SERUM & SCRUB
The ultimate business in a box demonstration. Having been crafting skincare products for 15 years, we’ve come up with a way to share our skill, passion, and expertise, not just on making soaps, a total skincare solution for you! Create a wonderful range of skincare products easily when you attend our group demonstrations. This is a fun way to learn to make soaps, lotions , serums, and scrubs. At each group demonstration (maximum of 4 attendees), there will be 4 products thoroughly demonstrated from start to finish. You will not make products, but will watch as I demonstrate and carefully take you through the different processes of crafting each product.
You will understand how each soap is crafted from scratch, what ingredients can be used to customise your different types of products. We will discuss different ingredients to make emulsions and you will get to understand how to add additives like hyaluronic acid to create functional creams/lotions. This demonstration workshop is perfect for those wanting to cover a bigger range of products than just soaps or lotions.
