If milk does a body good, goat milk soap does a body even better. These adorable animals provide you a natural way to tackle tough skin problems, from eczema to acne. Goat’s milk contains vitamins, minerals and peptides (natural fatty acids) that when made into soap, help to balance your skin’s pH, as well as moisturize and hydrate your skin.
Goat milk soap formulas can help you maintain beautiful skin and works well on even the most sensitive skin. With beneficial vitamins including A, B2, B3, B12 and E, goat milk soap nourishes your skin with needed nutrients. The proteins in the soap absorb easily into your skin, creating long-lasting hydration to give you smooth, clear skin.
Since goat milk soap can be costly, why not make your own goat milk soap from your kitchen, using grocery store bought ingredients? Beautiful skin made from home!
How to Make Do-It-Yourself Goat Milk Soap
22 oz. Olive Oil
8 oz. Coconut Oil
5 oz. Chilled Water
5 oz. Canned Goat’s Milk
4.2 oz Lye (Sodium Hydroxide)
• A day before you plan on making the soap, weigh out 5 ounces of canned goat’s milk, pour into an ice cube tray and freeze. When you’re ready to make the soap, place the frozen cubes of canned goat’s milk into a heat-proof plastic or stainless steel pitcher. Pour the chilled water on top of the cubes.
• Slowly sprinkle a small amount of lye in at a time, stirring well with each addition. Set the lye mixture aside.
• Heat the coconut oil to approximately 100 degrees in a small saucepan, and pour into the container you’ll mix your soap in. Add the olive oil.
• Line your mold with parchment or freezer paper. A glass 8.5 inch x 4.5 inch or 9 inch x 5 inch loaf pan works well.
• Carefully pour the lye solution into the soap mixture. Stir the oils and lye together. Pour the soap batter into the prepared mold.
• Place the goat milk soap in the refrigerator overnight. Let the soap stay in the mold for 24 hours.
Wahlah! The next day you are ready to unmold and slice the soap into bars. Let the soap cure in the open air for four to six weeks to ensure the soap has firmed up. The beautiful, healthy, completed soap bars will have a long shelf life and improve with age.
Washing with goat milk soap is a sure way to adore your blemish free, glowing, soft skin. Goat milk soap feeds your skin with goodness.
Goat milk soap! Because goat milk isn’t only for drinking!
