About this experience
Do you want to take part in a creative workshop?
Understand how to use plants in cosmetics?
Join the laboratory of our artisanal plant distillery and learn step by step how to make your cosmetic product.
We guarantee you support to make the recipe; the use of natural and organic ingredients and a moment of exchange and conviviality.
This activity perfectly complements the visit to our aromatic plant cultivation site (lavender, thyme, rosemary, etc.) because it allows you to learn concretely and simply how to use the benefits of plants in your well-being and skincare routines.
You will leave with the product created during the workshop, and the recipe if you want to try the experience again at home!
