Herbal Soap Making as Intuitive Practice
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
Do you have sensitive skin, love artisanal soap, or have a specific creation you’d like to try? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to make your own, customized soap in your own kitchen using ingredients you can actually pronounce? You’re in the right place.
Many commercial soaps contain cheap perfumes and synthetic detergents that can be harsh on sensitive skin and detrimental to the environment. Come learn to make your own soap, customize it for your needs, and get all the details you’ll need to create all-natural aromatherapeutic bars. Additionally, Seagrape always brings a touch of magic and ritual to classes, so come with an open mind and a sense of curiosity.
All materials are provided for this class. Bring a notebook, pen, face mask and your magic.
In this 3-hour workshop, explore:
- Safety of soapmaking
- The basics of making cold-process botanical soap
- Blending our own essential oil scents for the bars
- Ingredient benefits and methods of creating a bar of soap you can truly delight in
- Infusing your soap with intention and magic
