Soap-Making Workshop I

$125.00

We are so excited to offer our new soap-making workshop! Here at Makana, we’ve been creating and formulating soap recipes for several years using only plant-based and eco-friendly ingredients and we look forward to sharing the art and science of soap-making with you!

LEARN

Soap-Making I is a hands-on workshop for beginners where we help you establish the step-by-step foundation to make bar soap using the cold-process method. We will go over the background on how soap is made, the benefits of using plant-based oils, the curing process, and all information needed to make your own soap at home.


CREATE

For this 3-hour long introductory workshop, we will be using a simple recipe with only clean and pure ingredients - plant-based, skin-loving oils (palm-free), essential oils, distilled water, and sodium hydroxide (lye). You will be pouring your very own 2 lb soap batch into a wooden mold which you will take home after the class. To complete saponification, your soap will need to cure for 4 weeks before use.
