In the natural soap-making workshop you will be guided through the process and I will share my knowledge about the benefits of using natural ingredients to make moisturizing and cleansing soap bars.
No prior experience is necessary, and all materials will be provided for you to create your own personalized creations and to take home your 1/2 kilo of self-made batch of natural soap. We will be using pure Portuguese olive oil and other beneficial vegetable oils, essential oil, infusions and more to create soap in harmony with nature.
You will create your own natural soap bar by applying the cold process technique, also known as the cold saponification method.

Sohila El Moussaoui crafted her first Cold Processed soap in Grenoble, France, back in 2016, driven by a deep craving for creativity and the joy of getting her hands dirty with something new. Fast forward to 2018, she brought that passion to Lisbon, founding Les Savonnettes as she sought out the warmth of the Portuguese sun. Since then, Sohila has immersed herself in the world of natural wellness, creating and perfecting dozens of soap and shampoo bar recipes, along with candles, conditioners, and bath bombs. Lisbon has been a source of endless inspiration for her, with its creative energy radiating from every corner of the city.
Today, Sohila’s passion has evolved into teaching. She invites you into her world of natural aromas and oils, ready to hand you The Blender, and guide you through the craft she loves—starting with a warm cup of tea.

a year agoI had a great time participating in the workshop for making shampoo soaps. The set up of the space was really cozy and beautiful and I really enjoyed to learn about the process how to make my own soap. I can highly recommend this experience if you want to learn about soap making.

a year agoWith Sohila, I had the opportunity to make shampoo bars and not only did I use them for myself, but I also started making them as gifts for Christmas. Sohila was super clear during the workshop and explained the ingredients and procedure perfectly. I thought it was just something to pass the time, but in the end, I learned how to make shampoo . It was a beautiful experience for those living in Lisbon but also for those on vacation. My friend Giulia, who was on vacation with me, joined and loved this day too. Thank you, Sohila, I will soon come to the soap-making workshop. Hugs!
