In 2024, more than ever, it's time to get into Do it Yourself and/or zero waste workshops! The Marius Fabre soap factory has got you covered, with workshops for adults only, on how to make your own washing powder. The next one takes place on Sunday, March 24, 2024, from 10 to 11 am.
For one hour, you'll learn how to make your own washing powder, using natural Marseille soap shavings, directly in the Marius Fabre boutique in Paris's 3rd arrondissement. The advantage is that the workshops are given in small groups, so you can follow the explanations properly and learn all about traditional Marseille soap! Count on a maximum of six people per workshop and €20 per person. Of course, you'll leave with your laundry ready to use.

At the Marius Fabre soap factory, which has been around for generations, soaps are made from natural ingredients and vegetable oils, and it's this Marseille soap that will be used in the workshop to create your own laundry detergent. This is a more environmentally-friendly and, above all, more economical solution to adopt in your daily life, even after the workshop is over!
