The Studio
Welcome!
First as a medical assistant in 1977, then a skin care professional, then an esthetician in 1999 and later an aromatherapist in 2001, I have worked with many sensitive skins over the decades. In particular, the facial area is this part of your body which contains many complex functions. Chemicals were the culprit, mainly the sulfates which have a history of being too strong and harsh a detergent for humans and animals. So in 2004, I started thinking about which products may help my clients. I was already creating custom skin care products so soap would not be a stretch. In 2005, voila! I started making goat milk soap. Success was nearly instant, skins healed and became better balanced, eczema cleared, acneic skins healed, hair grew back...
Many years have been spent researching ingredients and their synergistic affects on the skin. Organic oils, butters, essential oils, phthalate-free fragrance oils, botanicals, goat and coconut milks... Nature has the answer!

The Benefits of Handmade Soap with All-Natural Ingredients
In a world where skincare options abound, there's something truly special about indulging in the simple luxury of handmade soap crafted with all-natural ingredients. At Holistic Goat Milk Soap, we take pride in creating luxury bars of soap that are not only gentle and effective but also nourishing for your skin. Let's explore the myriad benefits of choosing handmade soap made with all-natural ingredients, including the use of essential oils for scent and natural colors instead of synthetic micas.
1. Pure, Gentle Cleansing: Our handmade soap is crafted with close attention to detail, using only the finest natural ingredients to cleanse your skin gently yet effectively. Unlike commercial soaps laden with harsh chemicals and synthetic additives, our bars are formulated to nourish and rejuvenate your skin with each use. With a rich lather and creamy texture, our soaps leave your skin feeling soft, smooth, and refreshed.
2. Harnessing the Power of Essential Oils: At Holistic Goat Milk Soap, we believe in the power of nature's botanicals to enhance your skincare experience. That's why we exclusively use essential oils to scent our handmade soaps, eschewing synthetic fragrance oils that can irritate sensitive skin and disrupt your body's natural balance. From soothing lavender to invigorating peppermint, each essential oil offers its own unique benefits for the skin and senses, ensuring a truly luxurious bathing experience.
Note 12-4-2024: after much research and personal preference, I have added phthalate-free/paraben-free select fragrance oils to our collection of soaps.
3. Vibrant Colors from Nature: In addition to using essential oils for scent, we also source natural ingredients to color our handmade soaps, avoiding synthetic micas and artificial dyes. From vibrant turmeric and spirulina to earthy clays and botanical powders, each natural colorant adds depth and character to our bars, creating visually stunning creations that are as beautiful as they are beneficial for your skin. By harnessing the hues of nature, we celebrate the beauty of simplicity while minimizing our environmental impact.
4. Personalized Skincare Solutions: Our commitment to using all-natural ingredients extends beyond just scent and color. We carefully select oils, butters, and botanicals known for their skin-loving properties, allowing us to create customized formulations tailored to your unique skincare needs. Whether you're seeking hydration for dry skin, balance for oily skin, relief for sensitive skin or a solution for troubled skin like acne, psoriasis and eczema, our handmade soaps offer personalized skincare solutions that cater to your individual preferences and concerns.
5. Environmental Sustainability: By choosing handmade soap made with all-natural ingredients, you're not just pampering your skin; you're also making a conscious choice to support environmental sustainability. Our commitment to using natural ingredients means fewer synthetic chemicals polluting our waterways and ecosystems, ensuring a cleaner, greener planet for future generations to enjoy.
