Not going anywhere for the long weekend? Why not join in an awesome workshop hosted by Linwards and the Slow Living team? 

On Saturday, June 11 from 2-4pm, you can make your own natural candle at Linwards’ DIY workshop, where you’ll learn about the different types of wax and their use, why soy wax candles are healthier than other types, how to create beautiful, all-natural candles made with soy wax and pure essential oils, the benefits of such oils and how to recycle used candle wax.

You’ll walk home with a decorated 5x5cm candle that can burn for 13 hours, as well as one large candle with a lifetime of 50-60 hours. 

On Sunday, June 12 from 1-4pm, Linwards is back with an all-natural cosmetics-making workshop! Stop by to learn about natural skincare products, what’s unhealthy about mainstream cosmetics, the benefits of carrier oils, butters and essential oils, hygiene and preservation tips in natural cosmetology, how to store and label natural skincare and how to choose your own ingredients and essential oils.

Natural cosmetics are great because you won’t be adding extra parabens and chemicals to your skin. Gain the necessary knowledge and tools so that you can make your own natural skincare products with delicious all-natural butters and oils at home! Customize their scents and packaging and surprise your loved ones with these mindful gifts. 

After Sunday's workshop, you'll walk away with natural lip balm, facial scrub, cold-pressed cream and bi-phasic makeup remover or facial toner!

To register for either class, contact Julie Costerg (WeChat: JulieCosterg) by June 9.
