I have always loved natural and organic body products, unfortunately I found that many of the products I liked, didn't smell as pretty or work quite as well as the ones full of harsh, and sometimes dangerous chemicals. Lucky for me, there was an increase in the demand for natural products, and larger companies started producing them with some pretty awesome fragrance combinations, but again, a lot of them didn't seem to work as well as their chemical rivals. Not only that, but I don't have the money to run off buying products all willy nilly because I think they smell good. Solution? Make my own body products which are not only more effective than many of the readily available natural products, but also cost way less.

So I have decided to share my knowledge with you lovely folks and hope you enjoy both creating and using your products as much as I do!

In this workshop I will teach you how to make all natural massage candles, as well as a highly moisturizing sugar scrub. I will also include information on which products work best as base ingredients and why. Which ingredients are interchangeable and what the benefits of some of the options are, and provide tips on some variations of the product recipes.


What you will need for this workshop.

Soy Wax flakes
Pure Shea, Mango or Cocoa Butter
Coconut oil
Jojoba, or Almond oil
Grapeseed oil
1 bottle of natural fragrance oil/ Essential Oil (min 1/4oz bottle)
2 6" natural prewaxed wicks with base (not parafin dipped)
1 bag of fine ground sugar
2 Containers to hold your candles (2" diameter)
1 jar or container with air tight lid to hold the Sugar scrub.

I order many of my supplies from companies selling soap, cosmetic and candle making supplies, but many of these ingredients can be found in health food and bulk food stores. less

I look very forward to being able to bathe in my own after you teach me how to make it. In fact, I'm organizing a little get together at my place next weekend and having friends come over to do this in my kitchen. I've been hyping this up for weeks!!! Don't let me down!! less

Ok guys, lets get this show on the road

First I would like to thank those of you who are here for coming I hope that you like what you get out of it.


I will be first running through the Massage Candle Recipe step by step, and then through the Sugar Scrub, pausing of course for you guys to ask anything you need to.

After wards I will give you some VERY valuable info on the ingredients and their properties, as well as the properties of ingredients that are interchangeable with them.

We can finish up with any questions you guys have, and maybe if there is time some suggestions for some more stuff that is easy to make with the same ingredients. less

Not sure where everyone gets their materials from, but I like this site:

Top one is Canadian site, bottom is American. They have a few others too.

I haven't made anything in ages and I know some people aren't keen on buying that stuff online, but it's just easier for me and that's one of the better places I've found to buy from.

Not sure how their prices stack up against health stores though :/ less
