30 Days of Formulation Challenge

$14.99

Let us be honest here; we all get into ruts with the formulation. We get used to the ingredients that we are using. Unless we get a new ingredient, we are not experimenting as much as we could be.

One thing that really helped me is thinking of different approaches to using ingredients that I have but making something new. That is how the idea of this E-book came up.

I wanted to create something that any skill level could get a benefit from in their formulation journey. From industry, pros to never formulated before. 

If you are struggling with this, you can always email me through this challenge to get ideas or help. The point of this book is to get out of your comfort zone.
