No children under 13 can be accommodated - I will be teaching you to work with hazardous chemicals (lye) and this is not the most suitable environment for young children.
More details:
Using a variety of natural oils and butters, we will be making a basic cold-processed soap recipe suitable for all skin types. You will choose your own essential oils, colours and moulds and can also select between a variety of natural soap additives to make the recipe truly your own! This is not a melt-and-pour class and we will be making the cold-processed soap from scratch. You should be able to take the finished soap bars home with you after the class, but if the soap takes a bit longer to set we also offer a collection or courier delivery service free of charge. The soap will continue to cure over a 4 - 6 week period and will only get better with age.
Come learn a new skill and impress your friends and family with handmade gifts that they can actually use!
