Craft Sunday: Botanical Skincare with Emma Rawson
Duration: 2h
Dates: Sun 28 Jul 2024
Location: Meeting Room
Join Melrose-based maker Emma Rawson and learn how to make some everyday natural skincare products.
Using plant-based and biodegradable ingredients, including organic seed oils, raw nut butter and naturally cleansing salts, you will learn how to make some natural hand wash, sea salt scrub and organic lip balm.
Take toxins out of your skincare routine and discover the benefits of each ingredient and how to make these skincare products that are both good for you and the environment. You’ll be provided with everything you need, including glass bottles/jars to take your products home in.
You’ll also leave with recipe cards so you can make more at home to refill your containers. We’ll have a selection of tea, coffee and sweet treats to help fuel your making.
