This was such a fun experience! It reminded me of college chemistry lab but was even better because we were making cosmetics. I love that I got to take my creation home too. 10/10 would recommend this to anyone who loves science and natural makeup!

Truly unique experience! I created my own skincare products using natural ingredients. The hands-on process is like being a chef for your skin! Knowing that every product is free of harmful chemicals and made with locally sourced, organic materials gives me complete peace of mind.

There’s something magical about creating your own skincare with fresh, organic plants at Stirbar Lab. I got to cut the plant and extract the ingredients myself. Knowing my products are as natural as they come makes this experience priceless.

This experience is truly unique and time well spent. I watched and performed the actual extraction of the ingredients, all natural, to use in my own products. I was even able to choose the color and watch it all come to life like magic. The end result was a product that smelled so wonderful and felt so amazing on my skin. So much better than the chemical products we buy not knowing what’s inside them even if they say they are organic. The products last a long time as well. The lip stain can be used for cheek stain too, and I love it.
