TRIP DETAILS

At our Herbal Skincare Workshop, you will learn details of how to harvest medicinal herbs to create your own organic botanical skincare products from scratch. We will provide you with the knowledge and tools to craft natural and effective skincare products that suit your individual needs. We will cover topics such as harvesting methods, distilling, oil infusion techniques, formulation and preservation.

You will have the opportunity to experiment with a variety of medicinal herbs and botanicals to create your own skincare products. We will discuss the use of the biodynamic lunar calender in the harvesting and processing of medicinal plants. You will receive a notebook to take your own notes and a recipe book including the creations covered in the course to take home with you. All handmade cosmetics are carry-on safe, but an option of shipping your goodies home is available.
