Allandale Mansion hosting Spa DIY sessions

The holidays can be a stressful time of year. With all of the shopping needing to be done, to the out-of-towners coming to visit to the Christmas events filling up your calendar, at some point you’re going to need a chance to relax.

Why not do so with the help of Allandale Mansion? Allandale Mansion is pleased to announce it will be hosting two Spa DIY sessions on December 10. Participants will create their own holiday-themed bath bombs or shower steamers using 100% vegan ingredients.

Instructor Andrea Buchanan is a seasoned vegan soap maker and bath and body care creator with more than 30 years of experience in the industry. Buchanan combines her extensive knowledge of herbalism and aromatherapy to craft unique, high-quality products that nourish the skin and promote wellness.

The bath bomb session costs $35 and will take place from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. The shower steamer session costs $20 and will take place from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. Both sessions will take place on December 10 at Allandale Mansion.

The sessions are open for all ages, though children will need parent or guardian supervision.
