Transparent Soap

or October 23, 2010 - 3 Hours

In this class we'll discuss the various formulae for making transparent soap, and make a batch of transparent & re-meltable soap from which students take home a chunk. Students leave this class with a fool-proof formula for making their own melt-and-pour transparent soap base. Note: transparent soap uses solvents not found in regular cold process soap to achieve transparency. This class is not for beginners. Not all ingredients are considered "natural." Sign Up Here.

Other soap classes taught by the owner of Mission Peak Soap
are scheduled periodically at The Nova Studio. Please check their website for details.

The famous "Big Batch" class (part of the 2-day Soap Bootcamp) is a fully-detailed demonstration of the way in which soap is made at Mission Peak Soap, a method by which you can make and cut 200 - 500 bars of soap a day, all by yourself, without any (very) heavy lifting or special equipment. If you're thinking of scaling up, inexpensively, this class is for you. See The Nova Studio website to sign-up.

The Nova Studio also regularly offers first-rate classes in beginning soap making as well as the manufacture of other handcrafted personal care products. Check-out their website for more detail.
