Testimonials.

Wapo beauty school was invaluable for me when I wanted to transition from being a nonprofessional, kitchen formulator to becoming a fully fledged cosmetics brand. Mayca is amazing and so helpful. Couldn't recommend her school enough. Thanks for starting me off on my skincare brand journey . Love your workshops and tutorials.

I enjoyed your recent workshop on facial skincare, and the great products we made, along with your gifts and generous sharing of more formulas to work with at home. Your approach shows and inspires respect for natural quality ingredients, and integrity in the making process . It expands understandings of what quality means in awareness of own daily skincare choices, for ourselves , family and friends.

I worked with Mayca during both a private consultation and her fantastic Shampoo Bar workshop. Mayca is really an expert on formulation and makes it very clear on how to bring a natural product from formulation to the market safely. She gave me the confidence to keep going to get my product to where she knew I could bring it. She provided me with so much information on where to buy reliable raw ingredients and all the safety assessment guidelines that I needed to follow. I highly recommend both her courses and her private consultation, you will have fun, be inspired and ready to create beautiful cosmetic products.

Hi Mayca. I just want to thank you for all your classes. I did some classes before somewhere else and I must say, didn’t learn half of the stuff that you are offering in your classes. Honestly I feel I did waste my money there???? but with all your training and information I feel confident and believe I found myself a future. I would recommend you to anyone in a heartbeat. Thank you again.

You're so kind and generous Mayca, I meant to email you on the day after my day with you. I had such a good time and got a real happy factor after being in the kitchen with you. I absolutely enjoyed it. It felt like a 'real me" day, and I have enjoyed using the products we created. Been browsing on the suppliers you told me and researched some vegan waxes and feel an increased enthusiasm for my project. Sincere Regards and Thanks again.

Brenda, TipperarySkincare Workshop
Thank you Mayca for a wonderful workshop today. I came home with some divine body butter, lip balm and bath cookies all made without preservatives and smell amazing! I never knew natural skincare was so easy! For someone who is allergic to everything, my mam couldn't stop raving about her new body butter which had already improved her skin by the time we got home. We will be making more. These are her pretty packages.
