In this artisan workshop, Rebecca will guide you through creating your own natural soap loaf using the traditional cold process method.

What You Get

- Reusable silicon mould (yours to keep), which allows the soap to cure for 1–3 days.
- Your soap loaf can be cut into 8–12 beautiful bars and will need 4 additional weeks to fully cure before use.
