Captain Blankenship hosts a skin-saving winter balm workshop. Here is what she has in store:
Truth be told, I can't stand having dry skin or lips one bit. I bet you can't either. Let's not let that happen to us this winter! In this workshop, we will make our skin-skin happy and juicy now before the rainy months make us chappy. Prepare to make some tasty virgin coconut nourishing balm for your hands, feet, dry spots, face and lips that will have your skin and nose singing as well as an herb infused healing salve for extremely dry moments, cracked skin and scars.
Tins and ingredients will be provided and will be organic and wildcrafted (all herbs come straight from the captain's garden!). We will play and create with local beeswax, cocoa butter, shea butter, virgin coconut oil, herb infused almond oil (which we will make together) and essential oils. You will go home with a balm and salve which will keep you protected all year long and then you can make more and more forever more. The workshop will cost $35 clams/person. Please RSVP to em@gravelandgold.com to sign up.
