The Alchemy Bar at the Six Senses Douro Valley in Portugal is holding “wellness workshops” for guests who want to blend their own ingredients and fragrances into home and beauty products.
Guests use herbs, fruits and spices that include organic and locally grown items to make body scrubs, face and hair masks and lip balms. In the 60-minute hands-on session, guests learn about the properties of the herbs and how to select the right ingredients for their blends. They also learn how to make everyday items such as home fragrances, laundry and kitchen pharmacy products.
The Alchemy Workshop is offered weekly on a complimentary basis and limited to six guests. Individual workshops where guests make two products last 60 minutes and are priced at $56 per person.
