Making of natural cosmetics, Juuresi
Well-being from the pure nature of North.
In natural cosmetics workshops and courses, I will guide you from the beginning to the secrets of making clean and sustainable cosmetics. You get to actually do things yourself and enjoy the end result for weeks and even months. Concrete making and immersing yourself in nature's raw materials bring your senses to this moment and free your mind from the tedium of everyday life.
At the same time, you will notice how powerful and rewarding nature we have here in North!
Examples of products produced in workshops and courses by theme:
- Skin, beard and hair oils
- Whipped creams for the body, hands and feet
- Masks and scrubs for the face and body

In longer workshops, you have the opportunity to delve deeper into a certain subject area, such as wild herbs in cosmetics, the effects of vegetable oils or making extracts. You can also use your own herbs as raw material, if you have them.
The workshops come to you, which means you can order them in a space and place of your choice. So book a workshop or trip for a group of friends or work, a bachelor / bachelorette party or even a baby shower, and find your Roots!

The face behind Juuresi (Your Roots)
I'm Anni Singh, a barefoot girl from the countryside of Satakunta. Since then, through many twists and turns, I have ended up in Turku with my husband and our cat.
The spark towards natural raw materials was ignited when I lived in Nepal in 2019-2021. There I fell in love with the know-how of people my age regarding the beneficial and medicinal plants of the local nature. I wanted to learn about my own domestic nature in the same way: its possibilities and power. At the same time, I wanted to cherish a slowly disappearing folk tradition. After getting to know Ayurveda and yoga, I have understood how comprehensive systems we humans and all the creatures around us are. Without one, there is no other, and nature has a lot to offer us in terms of mind, health and well-being.
After the spark was ignited, I studied to become a natural resource producer at Livia Vocational College. I specialize in the manufacture of natural cosmetics and climate-responsible operations. However, I'm not a novice in the field of cosmetics and beauty care, as my first profession is a barber-hairdresser and I completed two years of studies for a university of applied sciences degree in beauty care management, which included a lot of cosmetic chemistry studies. I have also worked as a cosmetics product consultant and, of course, as a barber-hairdresser.
