The Magic of Goat Milk Soap: A Gentle Touch for Sensitive Skin
Why Goat Milk?
Goat milk is rich in vitamins and nutrients, making it a luxurious choice for handmade soap. It contains:
Vitamin A – Known for supporting healthy-looking skin.
Lactic Acid – A natural alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that gently exfoliates.
Fatty Acids & Cream – These help give goat milk soap its creamy texture and help retain the skin’s moisture.
Great for Sensitive Skin
Unlike many commercial soaps that contain harsh detergents, goat milk soap is known for its mildness. The natural fats in goat milk help to cleanse without stripping the skin of its natural oils, making it a gentle option for those with delicate or easily irritated skin.
At Wild Roots, we pair goat milk with high-quality plant-based oils and butters like olive oil, coconut oil, shea butter, and mango butter. The result is a smooth, creamy lather and a bar that feels like a treat every time you use it.
Naturally Beautiful Soap
Goat milk also adds a beautiful cream color and silky finish to each bar of soap. We let the natural ingredients shine, using essential oils and natural colorants to complement the soft, nourishing qualities of goat milk.
