Under the guidance of Katherine Tzelepis, an expert with over 10 years of experience, you’ll delve into the world of soap making.
Benefits of learning to make cold process soap:
  • Soap making offers you the freedom to choose beautiful, mild skin-loving ingredients.
  • natural with ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter and olive oil, which are preserved through the cold process.
  • It produces an intensive scent with natural essential oils.
  • You can make them creatively colourful with swirls, layers of colours and all sorts of interesting designs!
What you will learn:
  • Safety first and most importantly the equipment you will need.
  • How using something so caustic turns into amazing gentle products.

  • Why temperatures matter in soap making.

  • How to use clays and natural powders from your health shop to make amazing detox soaps.

There are different methods of making soap and the one we believe creates the best quality bar of soap is called the cold process method. Passed down through generations, the cold process soap making method creates gentle soaps that cure over four to six weeks and produce a long-lasting bar with ultimate moisturisation.
This traditional soap making technique allows us to use only the best natural ingredients and essential oils to produce soap that’s even suitable for sensitive skin.
By the end of the class, we provide you with a free e-book with a complete supplier directory, equipment, ingredients, recipes, percentage of oils and so much more.
