MMS: Lotions and Creams

Making lotions and creams is easier than you think! You can create dupes of your favorite anti-aging, soothing, or emollient topicals for dry, sun-damaged, or mature skin. We’ll get started with the basics of cream and lotion making and then discuss various base oils to use and herbs that have a long history of supporting and soothing the skin. If your oil from the previous class is ready, you can use that to make your cream. You’ll learn:

• How to create smooth emulsions for cream and lotions making

• Which ingredients work better for different skin conditions

• Recipe ideas and inspiration

Purchase includes access to the class recording from our 2024 Medicine Makers Series along with the class notes (accessed via Google Drive). If you’d like supplies to make your own herbal lotion at home, you can add on the corresponding class supplies kit.
