About this Event

CLASS DESCRIPTION:

Face oil is where Caribbean skincare begins as a moment of care you give yourself.

In this 2-hour workshop with Orijin, you'll build a face oil that belongs only to you. We'll start with your skin: what it's asking for, what the season is doing to it, what actually feels good on it.

Then you'll blend: choosing from cold-pressed carrier oils, botanical extracts, and a curated palette of essential oils until the bottle in your hands smells like something you want to reach for.

Once your oil is poured and labeled, we'll slow down. Kora, founder of Orijin, will walk you through a facial massage sequence with gua sha, working with the oil you just made, so you leave knowing exactly how to use it. Every guest takes home a 30ml bottle of their custom blend and their own gua sha stone.

No experience needed. Just a face, and two hours to yourself.

ABOUT OUR INSTRUCTOR:

Kora-Lynah is the co-founder of Orijin, a Caribbean-rooted skincare line built on the botanical rituals she grew up with. Orijin's oils and balms are made in small batches with ingredients like hibiscus and jasmine — a love letter to the culture that raised her. She teaches face oil blending the way she learned skincare: intuitively, with your hands, and with room to make it your own.
