Your teacher
Hi, my name is Kareena and I am the owner and soap maker at Kri:ei’tiviti Natural Handmade Artisan Soap. We are a micro-business producing small-batch, hand made, cold process, natural soap, in Perth, Western Australia.So, a bit about me and my soap making... I began making soap a few years ago now after a rather extensive career as a high-performance swim coach. I am registered with the Australian Industrial Chemicals Introduction Scheme (AICIS No 1001654) which all sounds rather important. And it is. As a Cold Process Soap Maker, this is a requirement!I began making soap out of a need to find a suitable product for my highly reactive, sensitive skin. So research, making, testing and more research was needed to find the right recipe.But that's not all, I also have a load of qualifications that may not seem relevant but tell you a lot about who I am... including;
- Winner of the 2020 RKCC Solo Business of the Year Award
- Winner of the Perth Makers Market Scholarship 2020
- COVID-19 Safety Trained
- First Aid with Advanced Resuscitation Training
- Certificate 3 in MicroBusiness
- Bachelor of Arts with Honours (Urban and Regional Studies)
- Silver Licence Swim Coach (Advanced Coach)
- Working With Children Check
