In this mostly demo-style class, you will learn Alice's method for creating high-quality facial creams. You will be introduced to amazing rejuvenating and healing carrier oils from all over the world, and also hydrosols (distillate waters from plants), essential oils, and different types of herbal extracts.

Learn which types of waxes and emulsifiers can be used in cosmetic crafting, rules of hygiene, preserving agents and how to make your creams unique to the market. Alice Duvernell, cosmetic designer and teacher will share with you the great pleasures and challenges of creating superior facial products that you and your customers will never forget.

Students will take home helpful handouts and two amazing freshly-made facial creams (made in class), one in a 1-oz. airless pump bottle & one in a 1-oz. jar.

ABOUT THE TEACHER:
Alice Duvernell is an artist & gilder who recently moved to the Bay Area after living in the south of France for the past 8 years. There she started researching problematic & sensitive skin types & developed an interest in the amazing virtues of essential oils & hydrosols. Her interest in culture & her studies in anthropology led her to travel in South America where she expanded her passion & awareness in native medicinal plants. During her last journey to Brazil, she set up a laboratory where she shared with the locals her techniques for making hydrosols & other cosmetics, using native plants.
