Description
Learn how to make natural and vegan-friendly soap bars from scratch.
This course covers everything that beginners need (and want) to know, including some insights into more advanced soap recipes and techniques. After completing this course, most beginners won't need any additional soap-making courses, except perhaps those students who are interested in advanced designs and swirling techniques. You will receive 5 soap recipes; watch 4 demonstrations showing different soap techniques; and you will be equipped with the knowledge to formulate your own soap recipes.
For those beginners who just want to make their own soap - even beautiful soaps for gifts and for selling - this course is more than sufficient. This course balances theory and demonstration as best as possible, and will review your understanding of the material through optional quizzes, and a practical challenge. This course is structured to answer every little question that beginners might have, and it assumes zero knowledge about soap ingredients, equipment, safety, method, recipe formulation etc.
Many beginners are concerned about lye safety, but after this course you will feel confident to attempt soap-making by yourself - because you will know enough, and because you would have seen enough soap-making in action.
You will be ready to make your first batch of soap after the third video lecture, and you are encouraged to do so!
So, if you are a beginner looking for one comprehensive course, then this is the course for you. You will never buy soap again.
