What's in our product?

Our bar soap is made using the traditional cold process method. It is handmade in small batches; therefore, each bar will be unique in shape and color. Once made each bar is cured for at least 4 weeks to ensure a durable, long-lasting bar of soap.

Olive oil
High in oleic acid, olive oil helps create a long-lasting soap with gentle cleansing and can help soften skin.
Coconut oil
Coconut oil can add cleansing, hardening and skin-loving properties to soap including rich lather and moisturizing effects. It is comprised mainly of saturated fats, like lauric acid, which can help rid skin of bacteria.
Sustainably grown palm oil
Natural palm oil is high in vitamin A and E which can help keep the skin nourished. In soap making it's provides great lathering and hardening properties.
There is a lot of controversy regarding the topic of palm oil. The product I use comes from a supplier that's part of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil.
Fresh goat's milk for our herd
Goat milk is rich in both saturated and unsaturated fats. Saturated fats can increase soap’s lather while unsaturated fats can provide moisturizing and nourishing properties. Naturally it contains nutrients, like lactic acid, which can exfoliate, help skin stay healthy, and maintain a good microbiome.
Sodium hydroxide (lye)
Lye is a key ingredient in soap making because it reacts with fats and oils to create soap. This process is called saponification and once the reaction is complete there is no lye left in the soap. Without lye and this process, the oils would stay and no soap would be rendered.
Castor oil
Castor oil creates bubbly lather and can help draw moisture to the skin.
Essential oils
These are oils extracted from herbs, flowers and plants that create a natural scent. They are pure and can provide a wide range of benefits.
Natural additives
Additives such as activated charcoal, pumice, oats, coffee grounds, lavender buds, sage leaf, wool roving, to name a few.
Skin-safe colorants
Natural Colorants
Natural colorants can come from plants and minerals, like lemon peel, pumpkin powder or turmeric.
Mineral pigment
While some are naturally occurring, like titanium dioxide, others are only nature identical meaning they have the chemical structure of materials found in the earth, but have been created in a lab.
Goat's Milk Liquid Soap
Our liquid soap is also made using the cold process method so that we do not destroy the wonderful properties of the milk. This takes a bit longer, but the end result is worth it!
