    For a quick introduction to perfume making, this is perfect. You can ask questions, make suggestions and come away with something that is uniquely you. I wouldn't mind a longer class or a chance to make additional fragrances.

    This class was so much fun! Nathan has a wealth of knowledge about the organic flower waters and essential oils used in the class & his enthusiasm was infectious! We made four products to take home & they each smell amazing; plus they have therapeutic effects. I would definitely recommend this class!!

    This class was worth every penny and mile, and something I will definitely be doing again!

    Nathan, and his mom Debbie are absolutely amazing (as are all of his other family/friends that helped make the class a great experience)

    This class not only teaches you how to make your own organic body care, but it also educates you on the importance of what to look for on labels, carrier and essential oils and how to be a smart consumer.

    The products we made in class are phenomenal, and an easy DIY body care item you can make in your home. I love, love, love my lotion bar :-)

    Highly Recommended!! Nathan is truly passionate about natural body care and is a wealth of information about healthy oils and aromatherapy. It's smart to write down Nathan's hints and favorite scent combinations. Everything we made is both simple and wonderful. If you are not already on the coconut-oil bandwagon this class will have you seeking out the gallon size and rushing to Whole Foods for your own set of essential oils. Please do BYOB and S (that's snacks!) for added fun! At the end of class we even made gift boxes- as if we had the slightest intention of not keeping these handmade goodies for ourselves.

    p.s. NO! Soap is not part of this class! You know everybody is already giving that for Christmas. They will be so excited when you get them all-natural lavender deodorant instead!

If you are not already on the coconut-oil bandwagon this class will have you seeking out the gallon size and rushing to Whole Foods for your own set of essential oils. Please do BYOB and S (that's snacks!) for added fun! At the end of class we even made gift boxes- as if we had the slightest intention of not keeping these handmade goodies for ourselves.

    p.s. NO! Soap is not part of this class! You know everybody is already giving that for Christmas. They will be so excited when you get them all-natural lavender deodorant instead!

    Thanks Ivy. It was great having you in class!

    Nathan is very sweet and knowledgeable. The class was fun and laid back. When you get there it looks a little shady, bc the facility is being redone, but once you're inside it's ok.

    From Teacher:

    Thanks Megan for the feedback. I really enjoyed having you in class.

    Yes our building does look like something out of Scooby Doo right now. However, we are on the up and up. Do312, PBR, Jugganauts, Bang Bang Chicago, North Coast Organics and other businesses occupy this space in addition to the bar and music venue on the 2nd floor.

    I will increase signage to put newcomers at easy thanks to your feedback. Thanks for leaving an honest review. It helps me to improve the class.

    This was a fun class showing how easy it is to make skincare products that are nontoxic. The teacher really knew his stuff and was passionate about sharing his knowledge.

    I say Why not! You'll meet new group of people, watch pure simple ingredients being mixed together to form body care products, while sipping on a wine and smelling different essensial oils. Did I mentioned very enthusiastic presenter/owner?!?

    The class was simple and too the point. The instructor was very knowledgeable as this is what he does professionally. What you took home was very nearly worth the cost of the class in retail value. Though I went to the first session which he offered at a discount as he knew there would be hiccups the first time. The hiccups were very VERY minor, and the sort of thing I expect in any workshop style class. Even at the full rate for this class it's an excellent deal. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

    It was a very informative class on subjects I have been looking into here and there. As a massage therapist, it is a great idea to use and potentially make all natural, organic products. I will definitely be making more lotion in the future. :)

    From Teacher:

    Thanks James! I highly recommend a massage oil made only from carrier oils in addition to the lotion bar.

    Not worth the money. We did not get any guidance as to which oils work together. We were not given amount of ingredients. basically we were just given vials to mix stuff!.The lotion bar turned out with small pieces of wax which makes it hard to use as it leaves residues on the skin. The teacher had a fun personality but that is about it.

    From Teacher:

    Doa I am so sorry you feel this way. I would like to make it up to you. I will write that the retail value (we sell these products in stores across the country) was over $30. I spent a great deal of time covering the origin, properties and the use of each organic carrier oil to which you had access and via email I provided my exclusive recipes that listed the quantities of each ingredient that you should use. Please get in touch with us so we can provide additional products and information to you at our expense.

    The class was fun, our instructor was lively and a bit quirky. The candles were a disappointment though, they were crumbly and did not work as body lotion, and they weren't very strongly scented either. We also were never emailed the instructions and recipes we were promised.

    From Teacher:

    Kyle-

    Hi. Sorry that your candles didn't turn out as expected. I wonder what happened. I will review my procedures. I email the instructions last week. I will resend them. Sorry that you did not receive them. Thanks for the feedback and your attendance.

    I hate to do this, as I really enjoyed the class, but I have to edit my review. While the class was tons of fun, I discovered after the fact that the candles themselves were a huge disappointment. They have almost no scent to them, and only burned for about an hour. They are nothing like advertised. Also, we never received the followup email we were told to expect. I wouldn't recommend this class without some significant adjustments to the actual candle-making process.

    I enjoyed learning about the essential oils and their benefits. I thought the area of the location wasn't the best and the space itself was small (which lead to a few things breaking). However, I was impressed by the variety of self-care products we were able to create in two hours. The body lotion I created turned out the best. I would recommend that the teacher substitute a different self-care product for the deodorant (it would have been better to create a solid deodorant as opposed to a cream one).

    From Teacher:

    Diane thanks for attending. Glad you learned something new! I am sorry you do not like the Logan Square neighborhood. It is a family neighborhood with many new businesses opening. I love Logan Square and very proud to be a Logan Square business owner. This was the first class that something broke. Only one thing broke. As I explained in class, I do not teach a stick deodorant for 2 reasons: 1. Not enough time in class 2. I am not giving out that recipe.
