THE SESSIONS

  • The Alabaster Session (goat milk): Milk soap punishes impatience: sugars scorch if the temperature runs hot. You will learn to work cold and slow, and why that produces the creamiest bar in our range.
  • The Botanical Session (herbal tea): We replace the water phase with brewed tea and infused oils. You will learn which botanicals survive saponification, which ones fade, and how to plan a formula around that.
  • Every session: You work with the same materials we pour with: olive oil, coconut oil, tallow, and clays from the earth. The curriculum rotates. The standards do not.
