Are you interested in natural cosmetics, fragrances, and creativity?
Did you know that you can make cosmetics from the ingredients you find in your kitchen?
Would you like to learn how to make natural products in just a few minutes?
Wondering where to get the best and highest quality raw materials for this project?

If so, we invite you to Natural Cosmetics Workshop with Dunja Juric on 6 November at Nadas.

During this workshop, you will learn how to make natural cosmetics within the comfort of your kitchen. This workshop will explore:
- Which ingredients in cosmetics your skin absorbs;
- Why make your own natural cosmetics;
- Vegetable and essential oils, stiff oils and macerates;
- Herbs for herbal macerates for skin care, for adults and children;
- Where to get raw materials and how to shop locally;
- Tools and materials, and how to recycle cosmetic’s packaging; and
- How to make oil fusions.

To start, Dunja will introduce a range of oils and you will have a chance to choose the one most suited for your skin. After selecting your raw materials, you will learn how to make an oil fusion, which will be yours to take home. You will also be given a recipe-script, as well as step-by-step instructions, to continue experimenting with at home. Overall, this workshop will equip you with the tools you need to make several different types of natural cosmetic products that aim to bring health and happiness.

About Dünya:
I have been producing natural cosmetics for many years. For me, it is like meditation. It is my Ikigai. My journey started with the concept that skin is our largest organ and that everything we put on it goes directly to our blood. My idea is to make cosmetic products that cannot harm us, even if we eat them. I currently produce various types of products, including toothpaste, peeling, soap, facial cream, lip balm, body butter, body milk, and macerates from healing herbs that grow in Croatia.

Please be mindful of your waste…
We care deeply about our waste. When visiting NADAS, we ask that you do your very best to avoid bringing any single-use or excessive packaging to the event (plastic water bottles, disposable coffee cups, single-use plastic bags, etc.) We will provide drinking water and glasses.
