In this course you will delve into the world of soap chemistry – and at the end you will take home something that you have designed yourself.
You'll learn what really happens during saponification: how soap is created from fats and a few other ingredients through a chemical reaction – and why it cleans. Then you'll get started: you'll develop your very own super soap from simple bar soap.
The special thing about it: You design everything yourself – shape, color, scent and glitter effects.
This course is perfect for anyone who enjoys tinkering and wants to bring their own ideas to life. You don't need any prior knowledge – just curiosity about chemistry and a desire to create!
