Are you eager to dive into the captivating world of Soap Making but uncertain about where to start? Have you ever contemplated the benefits of crafting your own vegan soap? Understanding what you apply to your skin is crucial, and here's why:


It's important to note that common body soaps often harbor harmful ingredients like Fragrance, Parabens, Sulfates, and Triclosan. Consider this: as we cleanse our bodies daily with products containing these harmful chemicals, they accumulate over a lifetime. But why did soap companies shift away from using healthier ingredients? Let's unravel the reasons behind this transformation.

Our immersive experience is not just about learning the art of soap making; it's also an exploration of the advantages of producing vegan soap with natural ingredients. We'll delve into various popular soap-making processes and delve into the primary carrier oils, such as olive, coconut, and palm. To conclude, we'll address the environmental impact of soap production and the use of plastic packaging.


Consider these eye-opening facts: on average, liquid soap consumption is seven times higher than that of solid soap, and using liquid soap also results in a 30% increase in water usage compared to solid soap bars.


Prepare for an enlightening journey as we patiently guide you through the entire soap-making process. You'll also have the opportunity to personalize your soap batch by selecting from a variety of scents and herbs. We'll streamline the process by skipping the saponification step and melting down an all-natural soap base, making it a breeze for you.

Soap making is a straightforward task once you've learned the ropes from a seasoned pro. You'll leave our session equipped with the knowledge to create your own soap, complete with recipes and valuable resources.


Here are a few additional points to keep in mind: the soap you create will need approximately 24 hours to cure before it becomes solid and ready for use. You can take your handcrafted soap home with you on the same day. And if you're interested in bringing this experience to your gathering or party, we offer that option for an extra fee. Don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to arrange a visit โ€“ we're more than happy to accommodate your request.
