"I attended a 4-day course with Purodem to learn how to make skincare products for my beauty salon and facial therapy clients. Using the skills Deana showed and explained, I have since put together a small range of cleansers & moisturiser creams that I now use in my facial treatments. This has saved me money by allowing me to cut back on buying from suppliers while still offering a great service to my clients. They all love that I can now tailor-made creams for their needs."

Rachel W

Wolverhampton, UK.

"I completed the one-day beginners' workshop with Purodem, learning to make four skincare products. I found the tutor, Deana, to be most friendly, patient, and knowledgeable when demonstrating and explaining how to make the creams. I highly recommend that anyone interested in skincare try out the beginners' workshop. It's amazing to be able to use products that I’ve made in my own kitchen!"

Claire

Lightwater, Surrey, UK.

"The weekend course in Clean & Natural Skincare Formulation was very insightful, Deana, and it has put me on the track to creating my own skincare range for my friends and family. The number of wasteful and potentially harmful chemicals found in cosmetic skincare is quite alarming! I look forward to learning lots more when I start my Diploma course in March. Thank you."
