We’ll guide you step-by-step through the soap-making process, using skin-loving oils, soothing botanicals, and your choice of natural scents. Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned DIYer, this class is a relaxing, creative way to treat your skin and yourself as the seasons shift.

In this class, we’ll break down the soap-making process in a way that’s easy to understand, perfect for beginners and curious creatives alike. You’ll learn:
