Workshop: Botanical Body Care

This practical, creative, hands-on workshop is designed to show you how to create simple, effective yet luxurious bath and body products using botanical materials and fragrant, therapeutic essential oils, that you can tailor for yourself and others.

Learn how to combine simple ingredients to make three effective, eco-friendly yet luxurious bath and body treats to take home, with further suggestions on ingredients, blending and adapting recipes at home to continue your sustainable self-care skills. We will look at how to combine ingredients safely and for personalised effects, understand good basic knowledge of key essential oils, herbs and other botanical extracts. This session is ideal for anyone who is interested in eco-friendly skincare, natural products and wishes to deepen their connection to plant based ingredients, and those looking for homemade gift inspiration!

Together we will explore:

  • The benefits and uses of natural, botanical ingredients and essential oils

  • How to create effective, simple bath soaks, scrubs and handcream to maintain healthy skin and boost wellbeing

  • How to combine essential oils safely for cosmetic, therapeutic and fragrant effect

  • How to adapt recipes and blends and further develop creativity at home to make effective skincare for personal use and gifts.

You will leave this session with increased confidence and understanding of how simple natural ingredients can be used in your daily wellbeing and skincare regime, plus create 3 skin and bath-care products to take home, in addition to comprehensive notes with further suggestions on experimenting.
