Soapmaking Workshops
Come & join me in my Dorset studio and learn to make your own natural soaps & skincare
At Herbal Harmony, I regularly run a range of different Soapmaking & natural skincare classes, the most popular being
Traditional Cold Process Soapmaking. Classes are run with only 4-6 people so everyone receives plenty of help
and each person gets to design and make their own products, using a range of ingredients.

Details about each class
Cold Process Soapmaking (beginners) - Learn to make traditional cold process soap from scratch using natural ingredients. There will be detailed information about the soapmaking process, ingredients, equipment and method, followed by a demonstration of the soapmaking process. Each person will then get to make their own 2 different batches of soap to take home (approx 10 bars/1.2kg of soap in total) plus a detailed worksheet with recipes to continue making your own soap at home. Recipes are all palm free and suitable for vegans. Over 16s only.
Felted Soap - Felted soaps are a soap & wash cloth in one. They help to make the soap last longer, help prevent sogginess in the soapdish and are gently exfoliating. During the class each person will get to have a go at wet felting merino wool onto several soaps along with needlefelting a design onto some pre-felted soaps. You will take home 4-5 soaps at the end of the 3 hour session.
Hand & Foot Creams- Learn to make your own hand & foot creams using natural ingredients including herbal infusions, infused oils, butters, floral waters and essential oils. Each person will make 2 x 50ml pots of hand or foot cream, plus worksheet with recipes.
Face Creams & Facial oils - Learn to make your own face cream & facial oil to suit your skin type. Each person will get to use a range of oils, floral waters and essential oils to create 2 x 50ml pots of face cream and a small bottle of oil to take home, plus worksheet with recipes.
Natural Bath Melts - Learn to make moisturising bath melts using butters, oils, essential oils and floral decorations. Each person will take home a gift box of approx 6 x beautifully scented bath melts.
