Under expert guidance, you'll navigate the realm of clean, vegan skincare ingredients, gaining practical knowledge on formulation techniques and product customization. From carrier oils and herbs to emulsifiers and natural preservatives, you'll learn the art of crafting moisturizers that cater to different skin types and concerns. No prior experience is needed – just bring your curiosity and enthusiasm for all things skincare. As a bonus, you'll receive a detailed class handout packed with easy-to-follow formulas, instructions, and the provider's favorite suppliers, ensuring you have all the tools you need to continue your skincare journey beyond the workshop.
By the end of the workshop, you'll not only walk away with newfound knowledge and practical skills but also with three delightful creations: a Plant-Based Gentle Foaming Facial Cleanser, a Plant-Based Gentle Facial Toner, and a Plant-Based Hydrating Facial Moisturizer.
