Herbal Skin Care Workshop - May 21st at Ohlone Center in Berkeley

Explore the materials and techniques used in making spa-quality products for a fraction of what they cost in stores. We will have an opportunity to sample and discuss the use of herbs, hydrosols, vegetable and essential oils and other natural ingredients appropriate for various skin types including normal, oily, sensitive, dry and mature skin.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll take home aromatic herbal spa products you’ve made which are tailored to your particular skin type including an aromatic herbal facial steam, facial mask, skin tonic, and a rejuvenating facial serum.

Handouts will also be included with lots of recipes and ideas for creating your own home skin and spa treatments including massage oils, salt and sugar scrubs, bath tisanes and salts… and much more.This class has a material fee of $25 paid to the instructor at the beginning of class.

This class will be taught at the Ohlone Center for Herbal Studies in Berkeley by Cheryl Fromholzer, a Western Clinical Herbalist and body care specialist who is about to launch her own skin care line through her company, North Rose Botanicals.
