- Laundry Service Sas Di Celentano Giuseppe & C. - We are the first and the only ones to hold courses on saponification on the Amalfi Coast and Sorrento Peninsula!
The workshop will be held in our cosmetic laboratory a stone’s throw from Sorrento in an oasis of peace and greenery surrounded by citrus groves.
We will teach you step by step how to make natural soap starting from scratch and acquiring the technique that will allow you to create your own handmade soap at home whenever you want.
No prior knowledge is required to participate in the course.
We’ll explain how to recognize the best ingredients, how to formulate different types of soap; all made through the traditional cold saponification process which involves the use of caustic soda, butters and vegetable oils (primarily our organic extra virgin olive oil).
At the end of the course you will be able to start experimenting with different types of soap at home, varying the ingredients, perfumes, herbs, spices and natural colors and above all start a journey of zero waste self-production in total respect for the skin and the environment!
Warning, making soap can be addictive and unleash your creativity!
- 500 gr of handmade soap included
- Complimentary carbonated beverages
- Transfer from Piazza Tasso for Sorrento arrivals
The workshop is set in our lab where we produce all-natural aromatherapy cosmetics. You’ll have the opportunity to use specialized equipment, handle pristine botanical ingredients from the Amalfi Coast, and get hands-on experience in crafting your all-natural, hand-made soap. Guidance will be provided at each step of the process.
We maintain a small group setting with a maximum of six participants to ensure optimal assistance, and promote a fun and engaging experience. Participants will be paired off for the activities.
By the end of the session, you’ll take away detailed handouts containing recipes and charts to assist with crafting your own natural soap at home, as well as 500g of moisture-rich soap made from shea butter, olive oil, and lemon.
Moreover, our lab also features a store where you can shop our entire range of natural and aromatherapy cosmetics, along with numerous gift ideas such as hand-crafted boxes and kits. All our products are made lovingly while respecting both your skin and the environment!
