Uses and Benefits
- Rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids
Just as this creamy liquid provides nourishment for the body, it also contains many skin loving properties for skin.
Here’s a look at the main constituents found in goat milk:
- Vitamin A: In skin care vitamin A derivatives are known as retinoids (or retinol). This supports healthy skin complexion by keeping the epidermis and dermis well hydrated.
- B-Vitamins: This group of B-Vitamins, which includes thiamin (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), and pantothenic acid (B5) have many skin nourishing compounds. They help with everything from maintaining healthy collagen levels, soothing skin irritations, keeping skin well-hydrated, and keeping acne breakouts under control.
- Vitamin C: Also known as ascorbic acid in skin care, vitamin C is a strong antioxidant which prevents skin from UV photodamage, and plays an important role in collagen synthesis.
- Vitamin D: While we mostly get vitamin D from natural sunlight (which is why this is called the sunshine vitamin), vitamin D, when applied topically, may help with some skin conditions such as psoriasis.
Vitamin E: This powerful fat-soluble vitamin plays a vital role in protecting skin both before AND after sun exposure. It also fights against skin inflammation.
Healthy fats: The lovely creamy texture of this milk carries over to the finished bar of soap. Goat’s milk soap may contain amino acids and lipids that support and repair the skin barrier function.
Lactic acid: An alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), lactic acid works to gently exfoliate the top layer of skin.
- Creamy and moisturizing
People have long used milk as part of a beauty routine. Milk facial masks and milk baths were purported to be common practices in ancient Egypt.
So, it’s no surprise that milk has once again resurfaced as a popular ingredient in skincare products such as natural goat’s milk soap.As a nourishing emollient, goat’s milk is easily absorbable by the skin, delivering moisture to dry or damaged skin. The result is a more hydrated epidermis and smoother, more supple skin.
Besides milk, glycerin is present as it’s a natural byproduct of the soap making process. A natural humectant, glycerin works to attract moisture to the outer layer of skin from the inside out.
When skin is moisturized, it forms an effective barrier to lock in moisture while keeping irritants and harmful bacteria out.
- Gentle, yet effective
If you’re looking for a mild, yet effective deep cleaner, this natural soap doesn’t disappoint.
Many commercial synthetic soaps contain harsh chemicals which may cause itchy skin, or irritated skin.
Those with skin sensitivities can rest assured that goat’s milk and other nourishing plant based or animal fats found in handcrafted soap deliver a thorough clean, without stripping skin of its natural, healthy oils.
The hand made soap takes on the qualities of the oils, or fats used. For example, coconut oil creates hard soap with strong cleansing and lathering properties. olive oil is a gentle oil that works to moisturize.
- Brightens skin tone for a healthy glow
You can kiss dull, patchy skin goodbye.
Lactic acid is a type of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) which acts as a gentle exfoliator. When using cleansers that contain lactic acid (such as milk and dairy products), it helps to slough off the top layer of dead skin cells.
AHAs also help to tone and minimize the appearance of pores.
This reveals healthier skin and creates a more glowing complexion.
If you’ve ever tried other harsher facial peels, this comes as good news. Lactic acid is a gentle exfoliant and is ideal for those with sensitive skin.
- May help with acne and other skin conditions
When selecting a cleanser for acne prone skin, it’s important to choose one that cleans without leaving the skin feeling dry. Milk delivers on these criteria.
Milk may help do the following:
- Reduce the appearance of acne scarring or lesions
- Regulate sebum secretion
- Provide soothing anti-inflammatory properties
- Moisturizes skin
- Slough off the top layer of dead cells on skin
- Soothes skin
Skin inflammation is a common occurrence for many , especially those with sensitive skin. This may manifest as red patches, swelling, or itchy skin.
This can occur as a result of too much sun exposure, allergic reactions, or more chronic issues like eczema and psoriasis.
whenever you use a new soap or cleanser, don’t use it on your whole body right away. Try a small amount on your inner arm first and check if it suits your skin; only then, go ahead and use it on the rest of the body.
