Ever wondered how soap actually works? In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to create your own soap while discovering the fascinating science behind it. We’ll explore the chemistry of micelles and uncover how soap molecules trap dirt, oils, and germs so they can be washed away. Participants will mix ingredients, mold their own bars of soap, and experiment with scents. Along the way, we’ll break down the science behind bubbles, why soap is so effective at cleaning, and how everyday chemistry plays a role in something we use every day. By the end of the class, you’ll leave with custom handmade soap and a new understanding of the chemistry that keeps us clean.
