Create natural skincare using Scotland’s wild and cultivated plants.

Overview

Scotland’s landscapes hold a remarkable variety of plants long valued for their cleansing, soothing, and restorative qualities.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn how to turn these local ingredients into simple, natural skincare products — guided by herbal knowledge and modern, practical techniques.

Across a relaxed two-hour session, we’ll prepare a small collection of botanical self-care items using locally sourced herbs and natural materials.
The focus is on safe preparation, thoughtful plant selection, and understanding how different botanicals can support skin health and overall wellbeing — nurturing both body and senses.

Each class offers the satisfaction of learning how to make products that are gentle, effective, and genuinely rooted in nature.

What You’ll Learn

• An introduction to herbs and seaweeds used in natural skincare

• How to infuse oils, prepare bases, and blend herbs safely

• The difference between soothing, cleansing, and rejuvenating botanicals

• How to select plants for your own skin type

You’ll take home your creations along with notes and inspiration for further exploration.
