What to expect
🌿 Make Your Own Camellia Oil Soap Bar in Jeju
In this one-hour class you use that oil to make a multi-use cleansing bar that works as shampoo, face wash and body wash. Your host explains how camellia oil has long been used in Jeju as medicine and skincare, then guides you through making your own.
Everything is weighed and prepped, so no experience is needed. You leave with two 80g bars, stamped with the village mark.

- Classes run on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 14:00, and participants must be aged 18 or older
