Here's some recent feedback on Google reviews about our workshops:

Vanessa is a person with much knowledge, passion and enthusiasm in candle and soap making. Through these workshops I could connect with some lovely people, learn while being creative and now I feel I have got what I need to start my own soap and candle making journey. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is curious about giving a go on this area. Be prepared for valuable information, genuine honest and transparency from Vanessa, which in my personal opinion, is the best you can get from someone you are learning from. - Renata

Enjoyable, relaxed and easy to follow soap making (cold process) work shop. At the end of the lesson we took home our own block of natural soap as well as beautiful samples that Vanessa (soap nerd) made herself. I’m looking forward to next class. - S

Great soap workshop with Vanessa! She's enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun. We had a great time and I'll definitely recommend her workshop if you're interested in soap making! - Julie
