Come learn to make your own lotions, for yourself, your family, and as gifts. In this one-of-a-kind, whirlwind workshop you'll learn how to make a basic white lotion from scratch.

We'll use simple, natural, vegan ingredients like wax and flower waters.

You'll chose enhancing ingredients like essential oils, cocoa butter, shea butter, and calendula oil to meet individual skin needs.

You'll preserve with essential oils and grapefruit seed extract instead of formaldehyde (aka DMDM Hydantoin) and other harmful ingredients.

Finally, we'll package and label your creations in beautiful cobalt blue jars, metal pump bottles or your own re-purposed containers - a $26 value!

You'll come away with the lotions you've made, and skills that can serve you for a lifetime for a fraction of the cost of a commercial moisturizer!
