Ditch the Dull: Why a Soap Making Workshop is a Great Idea
Forget the awkward small talk and the same old playlist. It’s time to break the mould for your next big milestone! Whether you’re celebrating a 40th, a 50th, or planning the ultimate Hens Party, you need an event that is hands-on, high-energy, and a little bit rebellious.
Soap making isn’t just a craft, it’s a full-blown 3-hour sensory experience that turns your guests into creators and your venue into a boutique laboratory… just with a lot more laughs and a lot less seriousness.
Suds, Scents, and Sisters: The Ultimate Soap-Making Soiree
Skip the predictable party and get hands-on with a three-hour workshop that’s actually worth the hype.
You and your crew will melt, scent, and pour custom goat’s milk soaps using premium oils like “Hotel Lobby” and shimmering chameleon pigments. Whether you’re crafting elegant floral bars or leaning into something a little more playful, it’s all about sipping, catching up, and getting properly into it.
It’s the perfect mix of high-end luxury and high-energy fun.
People start off chill…
then suddenly everyone’s comparing colours, swapping scents, and getting way too invested in how theirs is turning out.
That’s when you know it’s landed.
The Secret Ingredient: Creamy Goats Milk Goodness
We aren’t making that harsh, store-bought stuff.
Our parties feature a premium goats milk base that feels like a spa treatment in the palm of your hand. It’s rich, moisturising, and provides that perfect creamy lather everyone loves, the kind that actually makes you stop and go “wait… this is really nice.”__
Your guests won’t just be making “decor”, they’ll be crafting high-quality skincare that actually nourishes the skin. The kind you use the next day and think, “okay… I didn’t expect it to turn out this good.”__
It’s soft. It’s smooth. It feels expensive.
And somehow… you made it yourself, drink in hand, laughing with your friends.
It’s luxury they’ll actually want to use! not something that ends up forgotten in a drawer a week later.
Make As Much As You Want (We Mean It)
This isn’t one of those “everyone makes one and that’s it” situations.
We don’t count how many you make.
We don’t watch how much you use.
If you want to carefully design a few perfect pieces, go for it.
If you want to go full production mode and make a whole collection, even better.
Most groups end up making way more than they expected.
Because honestly…
👉 we care more about how much fun you’re having than how much soap you’re using.
Scent, Swirl, and Style: Your Rules
This is where the excitement really bubbles up.
We bring a massive library of vibrant colours and intoxicating scents for you to play with. From zesty citrus and calming lavender to deep, earthy sandalwood, the power is in your hands to design a masterpiece.
Go for neon pops, elegant pastels, or shimmering micas, every guest walks away with a scent profile that is uniquely “them.”
But the best part?
It’s when you start mixing it all together.
Watching the mica colours swirl through the melted soap is actually so satisfying. The way it folds, blends, and shifts as you stir… it’s one of those moments where everyone kind of pauses and goes:
“wait… that looks so good.”
Some people go for clean, perfect blends.
Some go full chaos mode and just see what happens.
Both end up looking unreal.
Then you add your fragrance and suddenly the whole table smells incredible! everyone leaning over each other’s setups going:
“what scent did you use?”
“wait, smell this one.”
That’s when it really clicks.
Mica Magic: Let Your Imagination Run Wild with Colour
Prepare to let your imagination run wild with our dazzling mica colour pigments.
Whether you want a soft shimmer or something bold and electric, this is where your personality comes through.
And once you start… it’s hard to stop.
You add a bit more colour.
Give it another stir.
Watch it ripple through.
Suddenly you’re completely invested in getting it just right.
The swirls. The layers. The shimmer catching the light.
No two soaps come out the same, and that’s exactly why everyone ends up loving what they make.
Naughty or Nice? You Pick the Shape
The best part of any party is a little bit of personality.
We provide a huge variety of moulds to suit the vibe of your event.
Want something classy?
• florals
• clean shapes
• aesthetic designs
Want something a bit more cheeky?
We’ve got options for that too.
And if your group is thinking about going all in… 👉 check out our risqué soap making experience
Some guests go subtle.
Some go bold.
Some say they’re “keeping it classy” and then pick the wildest option on the table.
Every time.
Your Host Makes the Difference
You’re not getting a quiet instructor.
You’re getting someone who runs the room.
Both hosts are accompanied by another team member helping set up, pack up, top up drinks, give tips and tricks. This ensures everyone is getting help when they need it and the class runs smoothly.
Topless Waiter
Running not only the workshop but party games, serving drinks, jumping into conversations, and keeping things moving.
Fun, flirty, games and just the right amount of cheeky.
Drag Queen Host
Full personality, full energy.
Expect:
- performances
- commentary
- constant interaction
- games
It turns the whole thing into part workshop, part show.
check out all our hot and fabulous hosts
Either way, your host keeps the group entertained and the atmosphere fun from start to finish.
While the Soap Sets… The Party Kicks In
Soap needs a bit of time to set, which works perfectly.
Because that’s when everything loosens up.
Drinks get topped up.
Games kick off.
People start getting louder.
It never feels like waiting.
It just feels like the party keeps rolling.
A Quick Tip… Bring the Right Drinks
This one works perfectly with cocktails.
You’re already mixing and pouring, you may as well be sipping something decent while you do it.
It just makes everything better.
👉 check out some of our cocktail ideas
🎁 Little Extras, Prizes & Surprise Gifts
We like to keep things interesting.
During the session, there are always a few moments where guests can win little extras.
Sometimes it’s for creativity.
Sometimes it’s completely random.
And sometimes you’ll walk away with something inspired by our other activities, candles, soaps, or handmade pieces you didn’t expect.
👉 check out our other activities
No one really knows what they’re getting.
That’s half the fun.
This Is the Stuff You’ll Talk About After
This isn’t just fun in the moment.
It’s the stuff that comes up later.
Someone brings theirs out at the next catch-up.
Someone posts it and the group chat goes off.
Someone still can’t believe what they made.
Some get used.
Some get displayed.
Some become running jokes.
That’s what makes it stick.

Can we combine activities together cocktail making, soap making or even life drawing class?
Absolutely. Pairing activities together is a great way to keep the energy flowing and add a bit of surprise as things shift from one experience to the next. We recently had a group start with candle making before moving into a life drawing class. By the time the canvas came out and the clothes came off, everyone had already built a rapport with the host, so the reaction hit harder and the group got into it straight away.
