Frequently Asked Questions

Why Goat Milk --- Milk has been used as a cleanser and beauty aid for centuries. Goat milk however, has special qualities, some that are still not fully understood. It is used universally by people with sensitivities to other types of milk for everything from feeding babies to bathing. By adding milk to our soap we lower its pH which helps to maintain the natural pH of your skin. Goat milk is also a natural source of Alpha-hydroxy acids. Recent studies indicated that Alpha-hydroxy acids rejuvenate your skin - making you look and feel smoother and younger.
Why Handmade --- Our small batch size and handcrafted production process allows us to maintain a high quality soap.
More and more people are discovering the truth about commercial soaps (go ahead and read the label on any one of them). They are finding out that they are not soaps but actually harsh detergents and are made from petroleum products. Detergents strip oils out of the skin removing the natural moisturizing body oils. This is why your skin feels dry and uncomfortable after bathing.
Commercial "soaps" also remove the naturally occurring glycerin that would normally be found in soap. Once it is removed they sell it to other companies. And who do they sell it to? ЕЕ. The companies that produce lotions and creams! Е. The very same lotions that you now need to apply after bathing because your skin feels dry!
Handcrafted soaps gently lift the dirt on your skin into suspension so it can be washed away. Handcrafted soaps leave moisturizing oils behind making you skin softer and less dry.
After regularly using handcrafted soap you may find that you no longer need to apply lotions and creams after bathing. So why not treat yourself to a bar of handcrafted soapЕ. Your skin will thank you for it.
Where do we get the goat's milk? --- We use farm fresh goats milk from our own herd of animals.
How to care for your soap --- We recommend using a soap dish that drains. Your soap will last much longer if it is allowed to breath and "dry" after each use.
Is there Lye in your soap and Where does it go? --- Soap is produced when a fat (our base oils) is combined with lye in a process called saponification. The lye molecules combine with the fat molecules to form a new product - soap. In this process the alkali(lye) is used up in the reaction.
What is the difference between Fragrance Oils and Essential oils --- Essential Oils are extracted from the plant and are 100% pure. Fragrance oils are aroma compounds blended to duplicate a particular fragrance. Some fragrance oils contain essential oils.
