About
Discover the art of soap making and learn why ‘soapers’ have stuck to using simple, natural ingredients for thousands of years. Using simple ingredients found in nature, you’ll craft soaps that not only smell great, but feel great on your skin. No more dried out hands from chemicals and additives.
Even if you’ve never followed a recipe before, this course makes soap making simple with step by step instructions and access to 28 different recipes. You’ll feel like a scientist in your kitchen as you blend essential oils and create your very own fragrances and textures. Once you create your own blend of soap, you’ll never want to buy from the store again.
