  • Choose from the fragrances available during your workshop
  • Select colors and creative design details
  • Explore available skin-safe additives and decorative options

What to Expect

We begin the workshop together with an introduction to the experience, available materials and important safety information.

You’ll then select the fragrances, colors and creative details you would like to use in your soaps. Our team will guide you through preparing and designing each bar while helping you work safely with the materials and equipment.

Once your soaps are complete, you’ll package all three bars and take them home with you.

Please allow approximately 90 minutes from the scheduled start time through completing and packaging your soaps.

Drinks and Food

Guests are welcome to bring alcoholic or nonalcoholic drinks. Please bring your own cups, ice and any other beverage supplies you may need.

Food is not permitted during the soap-making workshop. Guests will be working with soap ingredients, equipment and shared materials, so keeping food outside the workshop area helps us maintain a cleaner and safer experience for everyone.

Guests bringing alcohol must meet all applicable age requirements and enjoy it responsibly.

Age, Safety and Adult Participation

Soap-making workshops are designed for guests ages 10 and older.

Participants work with hot soap, oils, glass containers, a scale and other workshop equipment. Guests must be able to follow instructions and safely participate in each step.

Anyone under 18 must participate with a ticketed adult unless LiveYoung Candle Co. has provided prior approval for another arrangement. An adult attending to assist or supervise a child must also purchase a workshop ticket and participate.

If you would like to ask about a child younger than 10, please contact us before purchasing tickets. Younger guests may be considered individually based on their ability to participate safely, but prior approval is required and exceptions are not guaranteed.

Arrival and Timing

Please do not arrive more than 10 minutes before the scheduled workshop time. Material selections are made after the workshop begins, so there is no need to arrive early to choose fragrances, colors or designs.

The workshop begins as a group because the introductory and safety information is necessary for completing the experience. If you are running late, please contact the store as soon as possible.

Guests arriving too late to safely complete the full workshop may need to transfer to another available date.

Cancellation and Ticket-Transfer Policy

All workshop ticket sales are final and nonrefundable.

If you are unable to attend, your ticket may be transferred to another available workshop date or time. You must contact LiveYoung Candle Co. before the original workshop’s scheduled start time to request a transfer.

If you contact us after the workshop has begun or do not attend without notifying us in advance, your ticket will be forfeited and cannot be refunded or transferred.

Workshop Purpose & Recording Policy

LiveYoung Candle Co. workshops are recreational, hands-on experiences created for guests who want to relax, connect and enjoy making something personal. They are not professional soap-making courses or instruction for manufacturing products, teaching workshops or starting a soap business.

To protect our proprietary processes, we do not provide formulas, measurements, supplier information, sourcing guidance, production training or business advice during our workshops.

Photos and short videos for personal memories and social media are always welcome. Recording our instruction, demonstrations or processes for reference, reproduction, training or commercial purposes is not permitted.

LiveYoung Candle Co. reserves the right to decline or cancel a registration when a workshop is being attended primarily for professional training, business development or reproduction of our workshop format.
