Cold process soap making offers endless design possibilities through customisable base oils and additives, allowing you to create one-of-a-kind, personalised soap designs. In this 2-hour workshop, you will exercise the fundamental knowledge of working with different base oils and natural colouring additives to learn intermediate colour and swirling techniques.

 

All necessary ingredients and soap making equipment will be provided. We’ll also review safety precautions for handling lye (sodium hydroxide) during the workshop. 

 

Please ensure you have basic knowledge of cold process soap making AND soap design. If you are new to cold process soap making and/or cold process soap design, you must meet the necessary prerequisites before signing up for this workshop.

Please note:

Cold process soaps require a minimum 6-week curing period before they are ready for use.

 

Whether you prefer a hands-on approach or would like our assistance, please keep in mind that soap cutting and stamping can only be done 2-3 days after they're made. You're welcome to cure your soaps at home or in the studio following the cutting process.
