Bottles and jars and tubes, Oh My!
This was a very fun and very experimental workshop on how to make DIY lotions and ‘potions’.
Commercially made lotions, creams and balms are often made of a list of chemicals which are harmful to the earth, made in all sorts of energy intensive ways, shipped a long way, and bottled in single-use containers… We can do better!
Participants learnt about the harmful ingredients in store bought body products and how to choose ingredients to make their own that were good for the environment, and for their skin. The workshop also included two very fun DIY’s, and everyone got to take home their own lip balm and body butter.
