Artisan soap workshop in Almada at Homie Academy for anyone who wants to learn to make their own personalised handmade soaps using glycerin base in a simple, creative and genuinely relaxing session. From classic models to fun decorative shapes, you choose your own colours, fragrances and details to create soaps that are entirely yours, ready to use at home or give as a personalised and thoughtful gift. All materials are included and you take home every soap you make. No prior experience needed.

The session moves through the full glycerin soap-making process step by step. An introduction to glycerin base and how to work with it correctly opens the session before moving into cutting, melting and the personalisation stage where you add colours, fragrances and visual details. Moulding in different shapes follows, with techniques for achieving a clean and uniform finish before unmoulding and finalising your pieces. Along the way you also pick up ideas for creating personalised gift sets, making this a practical skill that extends well beyond a single afternoon.
