Lori's Bath Salts & Body Scrub Class Comments

"What I liked most about the salts & scrubs class was how open and free the environment is and how she gives a lot of recommendations and feedback." - Liezel Evangelista

"I loved the bath salts & salt scrubs class! The hands-on experience, the tips & printed resources... As a beginner, the class was very informative and easy to follow. Thank you so much. I will definitely make more and give them away as Christmas gifts!" - Anonymous from Survey on 11/9/05

"I loved your (salts & scrubs) class – great information with a practical and organic direction from a wonderful teacher. Your class was truly what I was hoping it would be - sometimes I have had expectations for a class and then ended up disappointed. I love to make a different kind of gift each year for holiday presents - the scrub and salts are perfect and I do love that they are good for you as well as made from natural ingredients. Thanks again." - Debra Saber

"Hi Lori, I took your bath salt & salt body scrub class at DeAnza last SAT; and I really had lots of fun! I'm going to make gift sets for my friends as X'mas presents. Thanks again for the wonderful classes you teach! I am telling all my friends about it!" - Andria Sparhawk

"Thanks for the great class (bath salts & body scrubs), and I hope to be back soon with my mother, and maybe next time my sisters, too. I was already browsing next month's schedule for what I want to take. My boyfriend was highly impressed with our finished products, and the professional look. I can just see little gift schemes in his head for our female family members and co-workers. It should be fun, and I'm looking forward to adding more new skills through your classes. Thanks again." - Kristin Rissanen

"First off, let me just say that I really enjoyed the bath salts & scrubs class I took a few weeks ago. It was the perfect antidote to a yucky day at work to come and smell great scents & be crafty. I have visions of future presents in mind and I'm plotting what classes to take next. I've passed on info. about the Nova Studio to a group of women I walk with, as we always like to keep each other posted of fun and interesting things to do. Now that I know, I'll have to grab a good veggie burrito from your husband's restaurant around the corner before the next class. :-)" - Megan Keane

"Hi Lori - Just wanted to let you know how much I loved the bath salts and scrubs class! It was so much fun, and my husband was so impressed with all the products I made - he's in the tub using my bath salts as we speak! :>)" - Meigan Anderson-Carson

"The other day a friend of mine did me a favor and I wanted to thank her so I whipped up a quick bottle of bath salts. Just between you and me, I felt a little guilty because she was SO impressed and only I knew how fast and easy it was to do. :) Thanks so much for your classes, I look forward to taking more in the future!!!" - Debbie Ferreira

"I thoroughly enjoyed the Bath salts and Body scrubs class this Saturday. I used my lemon poppy seed sea salt scrub last night and it is wonderful!!! Also used the cleansing grains from the spa facials class, and loved that too. Hopefully I will be able to take the Baby products class in August. I have the commute down now with public transportation and it is really easy… (connecting with the 72M bus at the El Cerrito del Norte or El Cerrito Bart). Often at work co workers will ask about my weekend and I have been sharing about your classes at the Nova studio. A couple of co-workers are really interested and hopefully you will be hearing from them soon. Thanks again Lori!" - Julie Anglin

"Hi Lori, The salts & scrubs class was wonderful. I can't believe how easy it is to make such beautiful, wonderful smelling and professional looking products. Also I appreciate how your experience helps take a lot of the trial and error out of things. I look forward to my next class with you, Thanks again." - Sylvia Loya-Diaz

"Lori, I thought the (salts & scrubs) class was fantastic. I especially appreciate how thorough you were; from packaging, to preservatives, to labeling, as well as very informative information about different ingredients/options and why to use or not to use them. I've been wanting to take your class for a long time and I'm glad I did. I went to Juniper Tree on Saturday and bought supplies (used the discount!) and have already begun to experiment with some different fragrance/color combinations for body scrubs. Very much looking forward to the lotions/body butter class on the 6th!" - Janay Richardson

"Lori, I wanted to thank you for the great salt scrub and bath salt class that my sister and I took. We had great fun and learned a lot. She returned to Scotland and I think she has told every one she knows about your class... I am going on vacation in 2 weeks and am planning on checking out your class schedule so I can not only further my knowledge but have fun at the same time. Thank you." - Sandra Wylie

"I thought the (salts & scrubs) class was great :) You were very organized, provided thorough information in a concise way, and created a fun, friendly atmosphere. Giving us handouts to take home was especially helpful so we can continue making things on our own. Thanks!" - Melanie Langlois

"My sister and I went to your class (salts & scrubs) this past Saturday and I wanted to send you a quick note to let you know that I've enjoyed your class very much. It was well organized, and you were very informative. I really liked that you provided materials for the students and allowed the students to make their own choice of different scents. We're actually coming back this Saturday to take your soap crafting class and we've even signed up for your spa facial products class as well! Lori, you are a great instructor!" - Jo Maxion

"Lori, I loved your salts & scrubs class as I thought it to be very inspiring. I was impressed with your knowledge, organization and inventiveness. And most of all, it was fun and I made some great products. I look forward to your next class." - Brigette Pope

"I just wanted to thank you for a great class. It was a lot of fun and I learned quite a bit. I was so inspired that I went home and made some bath tea, bath salts and 3 kinds of soap last night! Anyway, thanks again and keep me posted on other classes you may be doing." - Nicole Vasbinder

"I have really enjoyed the classes I have taken so far (candles, lotions/creams, card making, salts/scrubs, m&p soap, spa facials) and look forward to the upcoming classes that I am signed up for." - Cheyenne Bell

"I really enjoyed the Salts and Scrubs class, as I have the other classes I've attended this month (lotions and melt & pour soap). It was great because I could go home and immediately make the products with things I already had on hand! This is where I spend a great portion of my "fun" money when I purchase bath products, so it's really wonderful to spend $20 on ingredients to make my own custom batches rather than on a small container of someone else's finished product." - Elaine Bautista

"Hi, Lori! I forgot to write and thank you for your wonderful lotions class!!! Keep up the good work and I'll return for a class soon! I love all the classes I've taken (bath bombs, bath salts, melt & pour, lip balm)! Thank you for your efforts. For gifts on my last job (the film in Berkeley) I made all the costumer's different kinds of soap, lotion bars, etc. One of them asked what shop sold such beautiful soaps!!!!!! What a compliment and I owe my skills to you! Thanks for your inspiring work!" - Mary Still

"Thanks for all the classes - the lotions & butters, the salts & scrubs, the eco-friendly candles, and the cold process soap. I'm so jazzed that I took them, and will definitely take more. What I really like is receiving the benefit of all your experimentation - that's worth a lot just in itself. Not only do we get bring home wonderful products and a recipe that is going to work, and thorough written instructions and other info, but we also come away with the confidence that we'll be able to do it ourselves at home!!! And... you also give tools so that if we want to experiment, we can. I could have spent a lot of money on books and a lot of time reading, but because of you and your classes, I didn't have to!" - LInda Cary

"Thank you so much for such a wonderful evening last Tues. nite (salts & scrubs). I was so proud to expose my friends to such a cool and creative class and everyone had a great time! You are not only a natural teacher and a talented artist, but also a fun person who we all enjoyed spending the evening with. I've checked in with almost everyone and we have all been using our products proudly. Many thanks again and I can't wait until the next opportunity to create something in your studio." - Corinne Jonas Mayer (organized a class for a group of friends in Point Richmond)

"I have been meaning to email you to let you know how much fun everyone had. I know that everyone, especially Amy (guest of honor), really enjoyed the class (salts & scrubs). You did a great job, and I will be sure to pass your name on to anyone I know who will be throwing a shower or party in the Bay Area. Thanks again!" - Joanne Lee (co-organized class for a friend's bridal shower)

"Thanks again for the awesome botanical bath salts & scrubs class! We all had a blast and look forward to enjoying our goodies soon." - Monica Lee (CO-organized class for a friend's bridal shower)

"I had a great time on Saturday (salts & scrubs). I think it went really well, that the rest of the PRAM group also had fun, and I'm very much looking forward to taking your candle class too. Anyway, thanks so much for accommodating us, and having the patience to see the plan through. I think it was definitely worth it!" - Molly Gould (special group of Point Richmond Association of Moms, PRAM)
