Tonja is the remarkable owner of MoonDance Botanicals, a fabulous boutique in Denver that makes all natural gourmet bath and body products handcrafted from organic and pure ingredients. We were thrilled when she wanted to bring her expertise and wonderful Luscious Local Skincare workshop to the Makerie Summer Series. Students will create a nourishing facial exfoliant, a fresh mask for the face and body and a silky hydrating facial cream, along with be given plenty more recipes for other skin care delights. Living in the dry Colorado climate, we could all use some great tips on how to care for our skin!
Get to know the beautiful Tonja below! We especially love her answer to finding life balance.
