Dread the dry, itchy skin of winter? The obnoxious fragrances and unreadable ingredients of moisturizing lotions? Want to moisturize and nourish your skin without feeling like you've been dunked in a tank of lard? Come learn to make your own lotions, for yourself, your family, and as gifts. We'll use simple, natural, vegan ingredients like wax and flower waters. You'll chose enhancing ingredients like essential oils, cocoa butter, shea butter, and calendula oil to meet individual skin needs. You'll preserve with essential oils and grapefruit seed extract instead of formaldehyde (aka DMDM Hydantoin) and other harmful ingredients. Finally, we'll package and label your creations in beautiful cobalt blue jars, metal pump bottles or your own re-purposed containers. You'll come away with the lotions you've made, and skills that can serve you for a lifetime for a fraction of the cost of a commercial moisturizer!

I love the Shea butter lotion. I discovered it works better than soap to remove my makeup. It leaves my skin moist and clean. It also doesn't aggravate my rosacea.

The cocoa butter cream has an amazing fluffy texture. I've had several guests use it this winter on their dry hands and they have all remarked how nice it feels and that it's not greasy at all.

I'm into DIY. Along with being able to knit, sew, and can my own food, I can now claim to make my own creams and lotions after taking Tracy's workshops.

Take care,

Lynn
