Gemstone Soaps

Create and design fantastic gems

Create and design fantastic gems

This course is suitable for creative people and beginners in the art of soap making. No previous knowledge is needed to learn my gemstone soap technique. You will discover all the potential of the transparent soap and many ways to work it creatively. I will teach you a transparent soap technique developed by me, which I call technique bychela.

Would you like to start soap making without caustic soda? This is your course, given that we do not use alkalis.  In this course you will learn to colour and perfume the transparent base soap using different methods. You will learn the ways of perfuming in a natural and artificial way, as well as colouring with liquid, solid, matte, and bright dyes. Also, learn the characteristics of the soap in order to get the best out of it, such as dimming or brightening.

You cannot obtain transparent soap? I teach you my technique to elaborate a transparent soap quick, easy, and without caustic soda, so you can create your gemstone soaps in less than two hours.

Do you have trouble finding the materials in your city? I give you options to color and perfume in a homemade way. If you have a supermarket, jumble sale nearby, or you can shop online, it won’t be a problem.

our students say…

Hi Marcela,

Just thought i’d share with you some of the Gemstone Soaps I’ve made since enrolling in your fantastic course.

I am loving your videos and find them fascinating.  Yours is one of the best courses i’ve ever done as you show each step clearly and t’s easily understood. I’m up to the turquoise encapsulating lesson – i have the soap poured, waiting for it to cool down so i can cut my stones. (I pour mine in clear plastic cups that i can cut up and the soap comes out easier than in a tube with acetate). 

Thanks again, Kind regards,

Julie Hamilton
