Essential Oil Lipstick Workshop with Siddham Living in Johor Bahru

Making lipstick from plant oils and mineral pigments is a cheerful change from the usual Johor Bahru outing. At Siddham Living, you mix a shade and texture to suit your taste, then leave with one lipstick in a gift box. The activity is designed for first-time crafters, so you need no special skills.

I like two things in particular: you make a useful, personal item, rather than a souvenir that sits on a shelf, and the workshop works for a solo visit or a small celebration. Instructions come in a laminated book and a video, and tea and snacks are available while you work.

One practical consideration: the video needs Wi-Fi, and the signal can be spotty. You may also need to wash the tools and cups before leaving, so this is a hands-on activity, not a sit-back-and-watch class.

Mixing a shade that feels like yours

The main appeal here is simple: you are not choosing from a row of finished colors. You mix mineral pigments to create a shade that feels personal, then work with plant oils and essential oils as you make the lipstick. Color and moisturizing texture are both part of the process.

That makes the workshop more engaging than a standard shopping stop. You get to make choices as you go, and the result is something small enough to carry and use. It is also a gentle introduction to cosmetic making. The activity is described as suitable for first-time crafters, and there is no age limit.

Still, keep expectations practical. The supplied details do not promise a specific range of pigments, a particular lipstick finish, or a chance to make several shades. The included product is one natural lipstick, packed in a gift box. If you have a precise color or ingredient in mind, ask Siddham Living before booking rather than assuming it will be available.

Following the booklet and video

The workshop uses a laminated instruction book and a video to guide the making process. That format can be handy if you prefer to work at your own pace: you can follow the written steps and refer to the video as needed, rather than having to memorize a demonstration.

There is one small snag to plan for. The video is accessed using the venue’s Wi-Fi, and the connection can be unreliable. If the video loads slowly, the laminated instructions give you another way to follow along. I would not count on having a smooth online connection throughout, so arrive ready to use both formats.

An English- or Chinese-speaking guide is included, but no guide names or details about individual instruction are provided. You can expect language support in either of those languages, but if you need a different language, check in advance.

What the workshop feels like in practice

The activity is built around making, not watching. You mix pigments to arrive at a color, work with the oils, and shape the moisturizing texture. The details supplied do not spell out the exact order or timing of each step, so it is best not to plan another activity immediately afterward unless you have confirmed the workshop’s duration.

A few practical habits will make the session easier. Keep your attention on the booklet and video as you work, and leave time to clean the tools and cups before you go. That last task is easy to overlook when you are focused on the finished lipstick, but it is part of the experience.

Tea and snacks are available, which gives the workshop a relaxed, social feel. They are a pleasant addition, not a substitute for lunch or a full meal. Other personal expenses are not included, and tips are not included either.

A good fit for a date or a small celebration

This is an easy choice for a bestie date or a mother-daughter outing because you can share the activity while still making a lipstick that is your own. It also suits a solo crafter. The experience does not state a minimum number of participants, and one person has booked it as a DIY activity without a minimum-pax requirement.

The workshop can also work for a birthday treat. On one occasion, two participants celebrating their birthday month received a free perfume. That is a nice possibility, but it is not listed as a standard inclusion, so do not book expecting a complimentary perfume.

The same price applies to all ages, and there is no age limit. That is clear and convenient for family planning, although the pricing may matter if you are booking several people. Ask about the final total before checkout, especially because the supplied starting prices do not match.

Is the price good value?

The experience is advertised from US$21.29 in one place, while the package information gives a starting price of US$19.35. Those figures conflict, so treat them as estimates rather than a confirmed amount. Check the total price for your chosen date and party size before you pay.

For the price, the main value is the activity and the finished item: you take part in making a natural lipstick and receive one lipstick with a gift box. The opportunity to experiment with color and texture gives the session more substance than buying a ready-made souvenir. Tea and snacks add a small comfort, but the listing does not describe a meal, extra products, or multiple take-home items.

If you enjoy small creative projects, the value is likely to come from the process as much as the lipstick. If your main aim is to buy cosmetics cheaply, a workshop may not be the most economical route. You are paying for an activity and a finished product, not just for a tube of lipstick.

Finding Siddham Living in Iskandar Puteri

The workshop takes place at Siddham Living, 50A Jalan Eco Botanic 3/6, Taman Eco Botanic, 79100 Iskandar Puteri. The stated meeting point is Iskandar Puteri, and the specific venue address helps you locate the studio once you are in the area.

Opening hours are shown as Monday through Sunday, 10:00 to 18:30, with Thursday listed as closed. Those details do not quite agree, since Thursday appears in both the weekly schedule and the closure note. Confirm the available session time directly before arranging your day around it.

Transport details are not provided, so check your route separately. The booking information also does not state how long the workshop lasts. A confirmation is expected within 24 hours; if it does not arrive, contact customer support. You need to present your mobile voucher, and it is valid only for the date and time specified.

A few booking details worth checking

There is a mismatch in the cancellation information. One section says bookings cannot be cancelled or refunded, while another says a full refund is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the activity date, using local destination time. Since these terms conflict, confirm the applicable policy before booking if your plans might change.

Changes to a booking are stated to be free, but the voucher remains valid only for the specified date and time. It is sensible to check the confirmation carefully and keep it handy on your phone.

The experience has a 5.0 rating based on two ratings, and the provider, Siddham Harmony Sdn Bhd, has six total reviews with a 100% good-review rate. That is a small sample, so it offers a positive early signal, not a guarantee that every session will suit every person. The most useful practical details are the beginner-friendly instructions, the take-home lipstick, and the need to plan around Wi-Fi and cleanup.

Should you book the lipstick workshop?

Book it if you want a relaxed, hands-on activity in Iskandar Puteri and like the idea of creating a lipstick shade rather than choosing a finished one. It is especially well suited to first-time crafters, friends, and families looking for a shared activity with a small personal keepsake at the end.

Pause before booking if you need a firm duration, want a specific ingredient or shade, or cannot be flexible about cancellation. Confirm the session time, final price, Thursday opening status, and refund terms first. With those details checked, the workshop looks like a pleasant way to spend time making something practical, with tea, snacks, and a gift-boxed lipstick to take home.
