Why Use Goat Milk Soap?

  • It's Naturally Nourishing and Cleansing...
  • It's Naturally Moisturizing and Softening...
  • And It's Naturally Gentle and Rejuvenating to the Skin....

For centuries, people have been using milk as a skin care product. Goat milk soap is a powerhouse of benefits for the skin as it contains so many nutrients. It nourishes the skin with amino acids, zinc, vitamins A, C, D, E, K, a few of the B vitamins, enzymes, and proteins, as well as lactic acid, which is an alpha hydroxy acid that aids in the removal of dead skin cells. Glycerin, which moisturizes the skin, is often removed from commercially processed soaps and used for other things. But in handmade goat milk soap, the glycerin remains in the bars and thus the benefits remain. Also, the ph level in goat milk is very similar to our skin, thus permitting a better transfer of the milk's nutrients to us. And to top it off, there are no harsh additives that can be disturbing to think about, if not downright harmful!
