All our goat milk soaps are made with more than 50% olive oil, it is the very first ingredient listed on our labels. It comes from the Olea Europaea tree cultivated in many Mediterranean countries. We use olive oil pomace which is extracted from the olive residue and is one of the most nourishing oils on the market.
Goat's milk soap provides so many incredible benefits to our skin, once you use it you won’t be able to deny its extra creaminess from the fatty acids providing our skin with moisturization and softens our skin every time we wash. It cleanses gently but deeply so it is not harsh on our skin and also soothes itchiness and inflammation that occurs in sensitive skin from conditions such as psoriasis and eczema. It is rich in Vitamin A which helps control acne and reduces wrinkles, it contains AHAs that assist in anti-aging and helps exfoliate dead skin cells, promotes collagen production, brightens skin, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your skin.
You might not feel strongly about it yet, but hopefully it'll start to get your wheels churning. It's the same thing as putting chemicals into your body as food! Your skin is the largest organ in your body with an area of about 20 feet. Imagine slathering yourself with these chemicals every day, twice a day, your skin absorbs all of those toxins and things you can't pronounce and you wonder why you break out, your skin feels irriated, dry and all of the above.
The 1990s - Scientists were able to identify what it was about oatmeal that made it such a great skin protector. Colloidal oatmeal contains:
Avenanthramides are a group of antioxidants that serve as a skin protectant and also helps relieve itching, inflammation, and redness.
Oat beta-glucan serves as a hydrating agent and is capable of reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving overall skin elasticity and promotes tissue healing.
Did you know your skin is the largest organ? It has an average of 16-21 sq ft surface area. Our skin is constantly absorbing toxins and chemicals around you, including products you put on your bodies such as makeup, soaps, and lotions.
I'm amazed at how long we have gone without thinking about what we apply to our skin and feel It is so important to share and educate awareness of the ingredients that make your common bottle of body wash.
Here is an example of a well-known body care brand. Let's look at the ingredient list:
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate: This is a surfactant, it is an inexpensive and very effective chemical produced to assist in foaming in detergents, soaps, shampoos, toothpaste etc. This is known to be irritating to the skin if left on the skin for a period of time or used in high concentrations It is derived from vegetable sources, palm kernel oil or coconut oil
Goat's milk plays an important role in soap making, it provides so many incredible benefits to our skin.
We take pride in producing a full 100% goat milk soap without cutting it with any water while formulating our recipes. We also have many kefir soap recipes to add even more richness and creaminess to our soaps.
