Goat’s milk is a delicious alternative to the more traditional cow’s milk. It is creamy and filling, making it a good ingredient for milk, cheese and other dairy products. Remarkably, goat’s milk also has the moisturizing properties of cow’s milk when used in making soap.

Cleans and Moisturizes

Goat’s milk soap works just like a moisturizing lotion. It moisturizes your skin while removing dirt and germs. Just like milk-based soaps, it’s gentle on your skin. People with sensitive skin should not have problems bathing or washing their hands with this product. Clearly, goat’s milk soap is a good starting point if you want to create your own soap.

Two Ways to Make Goat’s Milk Soap

When making goat’s milk soap, you have two options. Each option has its specific set of uses. Just pick one according to your needs or make both soap types.

• Goat’s Milk Soap Bar
• Goat’s Milk Liquid Soap

Goat’s Milk Soap Bar

The goat’s milk soap bar is made from a combination of moisturizing and cleansing agents. Lard and oatmeal are added to the mixture, which enhances the moisturizing features of goat’s milk. As a result, the finished product is soft and creamy. Its PH balance is lower than most soaps, despite the presence of a potent germ-killer, such as lye.

Materials Used:

• 3 cups goat’s milk
• 1 ½ pounds lard
• 1 cup oatmeal
• 2 tsp borax
• 6.5 oz lye
• 2 oz glycerin
• soap molds
• mixing bowl
• pan
• cup
• thermometer
• mixer
• cloth
• hair dryer

Procedure:

The goat’s milk soap bar is primarily used for moisturizing skin. If you want to increase its efficacy for skin cleansing, you can mix more lye when creating the soap. Just regulate the amount of lye that you plan to add, especially if you have sensitive skin.

Goat’s Milk Liquid Soap

Goat’s milk can be added to most liquid soap recipes. You just have to compensate for its properties and the formation of milk fat. Potassium hydroxide often comes along with the milk to regulate curdling and increase the soap’s cleansing ability.

Materials Used:

• 25 oz goat’s milk
• 25 oz water
• 6 oz potassium hydroxide
• 2 oz boric acid
• 16 oz olive oil
• 7 oz coconut oil
• 3 oz lavender oil
• dye
• liquid soap dispenser
• pots

Procedure:

Goat’s milk soap is fun and easy to make. The creation processes may be a little lengthy, but the steps are straightforward. You shouldn’t have any problems making either the bar or the liquid soap. With patience and perseverance, you will get one of the best moisturizing soaps available. Now, that’s a good deal.
