Shona is a very good instructor. She goes through each step thoroughly and if you still have any questions, answers you pretty quickly. All her soap making courses has helped with clarified a lot of things that books where confusing.

Zoe Reeves

The course was amazing. I learned so much about it, and I’ll keep going with Shona’s courses because she was clear, detailed and concise.

Fabrice MOUVEAU

Very detailed. I enrolled in other courses and I see the big difference in content. Thank you so much Shona for putting so much emphasis on safety protocols and explaining why a particular equipment must be used instead of another. I already knew this is the best course for soap making and I was right!

Camille

Shona is a very great instructor and informative in each class she teach. I enjoy her classes very much and I learn a lot from her as she explains everything and also provide resources to refer to for your understanding.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Course

Q. I've never made hot process soap before. Is this the right course for me?

Yes, this course is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to make hot process soap, regardless of their experience. If you are an existing cold process soap maker then you should pick this method up very quickly.

Q. Can I use my cold process recipes to make Hot Process soap?

You can use the same base oils, but you need to add a couple of other ingredients to achieve the right consistency for your batter.

Q. Can I add milk to my soap?

You can add milk to your soap, but that subject is not covered in this course, as I want you to master the basics first.

Q. Does this soap method use lye?

Yes. ALL soap making methods use lye, one way or another. Lye is what converts the water and oils into soap. Even melt and pour soap base has been made using lye.

Q. Can I download the videos?
