I get it!

I hated making shampoo bars… until I learned this.

As much as I loved the idea of DIY shampoo bars, my first DIY shampoo bars were a frustrating pain in the rear.

They made a big mess in my studio, were hard to shape, and quickly softened into squishy blobs in my shower.

This couldn’t be how big brands like LUSH were doing it, right?

So, I set out to learn what the big brands were doing, and I was right. They were doing something really different from what I’d been trying.

Their way was EASIER and honestly WAY more fun.

That was just the starting point, though. I’ve spent years expanding on that research and refining how I make my shampoo bars.

Through hands-on experimenting I learned a lot about what works (and doesn’t), and discovered several things I’d heard were “impossible” are not only possible, but AWESOME.

And I want to share all that knowledge with you so you can start creating your own rock-hard, long-lasting shampoo bars using ingredients that you can get that you’re excited about.

How you’ll start formulating shampoo bars in just 110 minutes:

Learn how to create long-lasting, super sudsy shampoo bars that make your hair feel soft and manageable without any fancy equipment
Where to find the ingredients you need (and what to buy)
Say goodbye to sticky, messy, hard-to-shape shampoo bars that go mushy in the shower
The truth about “natural” shampoo bars (it’s a bit weird)
5 beginner mistakes that waste money + ingredients
How to customize your shampoo bars for ANY hair type
Exposing common shampoo bar myths that are holding you back
My simple tried-and-tested system for creating shampoo bars that are easy to make AND get really hard, really fast

1000/10 recommend this course for anyone looking to start formulating hair loving bars.

Been lurking on the humblebee&me YouTube channel and Marie inspired me to make my own shampoo. This workshop has been extremely helpful on my journey and built up lots of confidence in my formulating! The cheat sheet is a useful resource/guide and the troubleshooting section really takes the cake!!! 1000/10 recommend this course for anyone looking to start formulating hair loving bars.

The resources and notes are invaluable!

Marie’s Shampoo Bar Workshop was everything and more than I expected. I am not a “formulator” but her charts and explanations made me feel more than comfortable about being able to create my own shampoo bar formula, although the formulas she shares in her videos are great! I also appreciate the Cheat Sheet she provided. The resources and notes are invaluable! I will refer back to them often. Thank you!

– Lisa Porria

I learned so much

Very exciting and enjoyable. I learned so much and can’t wait to start making shampoo bars.

If you don’t have time for a big course…

And do better with “hit the ground running” formulation info, this is the “head to the studio right after and start making ASAP” inspiration you’ve been looking for.

The first step into taking the formulating reigns

I love Marie Rayma’s courses – they have such valuable information and dig deep into explanations about ingredients and the way they work. This course has all of that and the added bonus of putting it in your hands so you are immediately formulating your very own shampoo bar as you work through the course. I haven’t tried mine yet, it may be a flop, who knows?! But I’m going to try it and if it doesn’t work I will review the troubleshooting and try it again.

More than just recipes to follow, this course is the first step into taking the formulating reigns and seeing what you come up with. Great Marie Rayma course PLUS inspiration! Love it!

Just adore Marie's authenticity

It was so refreshing to have Marie chat away naturally !! I have made a few Humblebee & me recipes, but the course explains the ingredients so I can better understand what I am doing. Thank you

Her explanations of the different ingredients and how to customise them for different types of hair was so thorough.
