Create your own Traditional Cretan Soap
Overview
Come with me to travel back to the time, when Cretan people used to make their own Traditional Homemade Cretan Soap, using only Extra Virgin Olive Oil!
Together we can create our own traditional soaps, using the recipe my grandmother taught me, as she also learned it from her mother. Using my knowledge as a biochemist, we can develop these formulations to produce a product, based on your needs!
The whole procedure is completely safe even for young children and no specific knowledge is required on the subject. On the contrary, you will find it particularly educative and interesting!
Come with me and I will prove to you that you can prepare the purest and healthiest cleaning product, with your own hands. We will use only Extra Virgin Cretan Olive Oil, produced by my family, and totally safe ingredients.
At the end you will take your soaps you will have made with your own hands, that will be ready the next day, as a souvenir to remember this unique experience as you take your shower!
