Paula made the class interesting. She took her time to go through the process of liquid soap making with us. She was very welcoming as well. I went home smiling and feeling very proud of myself knowing that the knowledge I had gained will help me a lot. I used the liquid soap I took home that evening and my bathroom was filled with a fusion of scents, it felt heavenly.

I have just attended a liquid soap course with Paula at Old Bexley Soap and WOW she couldn’t have been more welcoming , friendly and knowledgeable at what she does! She had us all at our own little work stations with mixing bowls, blenders and safety wear blending our soap from scratch, even did the lye blend and after that was done we mixed our own fragrances to the soap and it came out beautiful!
So pleased with this course, I will be back for more as I feel we learn everything better by doing it ourselves . I have been on other courses where the teachers pre blend the lye and fragrance and that was not to my satisfaction as I want to learn the skill!
Paula is the place to go to if someone want to learn this for a hobby or a business. It was really clean, tidy and organised with lots of refreshments from fabulous Rosa, which I highly appreciated Thanks again! See you soon.
