You’ll learn how to develop custom skincare products tailored to different skin types, concerns, and ingredient properties, ensuring they work scientifically and practically.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to think like a formulator, not just a recipe follower.

We’ll teach you how to craft your own herbal extracts at home using simple yet potent ingredients found in your kitchen and garden—no fancy equipment needed! By the end of this course, you’ll have the confidence to incorporate herbs intelligently and purposefully into your skincare creations.

Ever wanted to master every soapmaking technique in one place?
