Why Use Goat Milk Soap?
Have you ever wondered why would you put goats milk in homemade soap or why you should even use homemade soap?
The benefit of using goats milk in soap are numerous! 1: Goat milk has Alpha-hydroxy acids which help break down the bond that holds dead skin cells together. Alpha-hydroxy acid is well known for softening skin and leaving it rejuvenated for a younger appearance. 2: Goat milk soap is very moisturizing because it has more fat than cows milk or water. It also has vitamins A,B,C and D, along with protein, calcium, potassium and magnesium.
To make soap you have to have chemical reaction using lye and oils, called saponification. The end result of the lye and oil reaction is glycerin and soap. Most commercial soaps have had the glycerin taken out and can be sold for cosmetics or put into more expensive soaps, and basically, all you have left is soap that dries you out and irritates your skin. I have discounted the amount of lye that I use to ensure that you get an extra gentle bar of soap and all of the glycerin is left in my homemade soap.
I also use all vegetable oils so you don't have to worry about getting clogged pores. Natural ultramarines and oxides are used for coloring, while essential oils and fragrance oils are used for scenting the soap. The fragrance gets your attention but what it does for your skin is the best part. Some of my customers have very sensitive skin conditions like Eczema, Psoriasis, and Acne and it is very rewarding when they tell me that my soap has helped their skin so much and that they will not use anything else. I hear this over and over again.
I do feel that my complexion is better than it has been in years. It took awhile for me to try my soap on my face because you just aren't supposed to use soap on your face! I couldn't have been more pleased with the results and my skin feels soft and silky, not tight and dried out.
When I used name brand cleansers and moisturizers I had a lot of red blotches, (almost like a rash) on my face. I noticed about 2 weeks after I started using The Soap Shepherd soap on my face the rash was gone. I now only use The Soap Shepherd soap. I really do not need moisturizer on my face but the goat milk body cream is so silky I just can not resist.
If you need a few more examples of what it can do for you just go to the testimonials page and see what some of my customers have to say about my products!
