If you blend or use essential oils for perfume, soap, bath and body products, this seminar is for you! Join renowned essential oil guru Robert Tisserand in this incredibly informative 2-day seminar/workshop. Learn the importance of precise dilution; to what extent essential oils are dermally absorbed; how to use them to address skin problems such as acne, fungal infections, psoriasis, rosacea and sun damage, and how to make up simple preparations with safe yet effective ingredients.
Attendees will have the rare opportunity to blend several products in this class alongside Mr. Tisserand. Please note that there are a limited number of seats available for this event and it will sell out.
Attendees will learn the importance of essential oils’ affect on our mind and body. As well as contributing fragrance and feel-good, essential oils can have wonderful effects such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibiofilm and anti-aging. In this seminar, we will learn how, and to what extent, essential oils are absorbed by the skin; how to effectively use them to address skin problems including acne, fungal infections, psoriasis, rosacea and sun damage, and how to make up simple preparations with safe yet effective ingredients.
Avoiding adverse effects is of course important, and is covered in detail. In addition to many essential oils, we will examine the benefits of certain absolutes, CO2 extracts and aromatic fatty oils, such as argan, calendula, pomegranate and tamanu.
We will smell some of the less common oils, absolutes and CO2 extracts discussed, and some of Robert’s recommended finished blends.
Subject areas covered include:• How and why plants make essential oils
• Understanding essential oil chemistry
• Essential oil chemistry in relation to soap
• Doses, mixing and measuring
• Essential oil quality & integrity
• Microbial balance & protection
• Sun damage & photoageing
• Acne & dryness
• Redness, itching and other sensitivity issues
• Allergy & photosensitization – how to avoid them!
• Safe dilutions for specific oils
This seminar is a lecture/slide presentation with discussion. The emphasis is on what the research shows, especially clinical data, often with photographic evidence. Extensive handouts are provided. Also included in the seminar are four essential oil blending projects. Students will take home samples from each blending project.

The Essential Oils in Skin Care seminar was awesome! Robert is a very knowledgeable and engaging presenter. I have a much better understanding of essential oils, their benefits to the skin and how to begin blending for my products.

I thoroughly enjoyed Robert’s class. He taught me more about essential oils than I would have learned on my own in years.
-Maureen H.
Robert is a master of essential oil chemistry and he is a “nose”. His blends are both therapeutic and wonderful!

Two days of useful and relevant information that treat so many kinds of skin care. I’m excited and far more confident about creating skin care products with essential oils! Many thanks!

The breadth of Robert’s knowledge in the field of essential oils is remarkable. He is a gift to those of us working with these gems of nature. But for me, even more importantly, he is an outstanding teacher; having knowledge is one thing, but being able to clearly and articulately impart it is another. He has both, and this indeed is what contributes to genius.
Maren G.

Great class! Good beginning and not too elementary.

I really loved the way the class was organized and broken down. Also Robert’s own formulas were an amazing experience. Also he’s so easily approachable. Love his sense of humor! I highly recommend this class.

Great seminar for those with some knowledge and experience using essential oils and making products to learn more about potential risks and safe application levels.
