Goats' Milk

Problem or exceptionally dry skin sufferers? These soaps are especially for you! Organic, whole, unpasteurised Goats' Milk has the same ph as the human skin making it exceptionally mild. Leading dermatologists recommend both drinking whole Goats' Milk and using Goats' Milk products to counteract the distressing symptons of eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and topical dermatitis. We source our Organic milk fresh from a local supplier and do not heat it when making our soap to ensure that all the essential minerals and vitamins are retained in the finished bar. The soap is extremely mild, gentle and beneficial in preserving the acid mantle which the skin uses when fighting off bacterial assault. Goats' Milk is a lipoprotein (which means it contains a lipid - a organically occurring substance insoluble in water) thus helping form a protective barrier on damaged skin. We replace our usual distilled Cumbrian Spring water with 100% Northumbrian Goats' Milk in these soaps which can give an uneven spread of colour throughout the bars (further proof that they are indeed, handcrafted). Like our cold processed soaps these may sometimes have a soda ash bloom which we prefer to leave on. These bars are also handcut. Customers are full of praise for the creamy, mild texture of our bars and they form a large percentage of our natural skincare sales - proof positive that they actually work....

Goats Milk with Borage & Bergamot Soap

For problem skin, those with skin disorders, sensitive and extra dry skins. (min. 100g)

*** NOW UNCOLOURED after listening to customer feedback – new picture to follow…..

A member of the same plant family as Comfrey and just as beneficial, Borage Seed oil contains the richest source of gamma linolenic acid (GLA) in all plants. GLA is an essential fatty acid converted by the body into a hormone-like substance called prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) which has anti-inflammatory properties – wonderfully soothing and healing. The light, citrus notes of Bergamot Essential oil are also known for their healing properties, especially helpful for excema, psoriasis, acne and abrasions on the skin.

CUSTOMER INFORMATION -PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ

Although we only use pure Essential Oils, totally natural ingredients and plant based colours in all our skincare products most of which are organically sourced there are a very few customers who have a skin sensitivity to even natural ingredients. These include some nut and Essential oils – mainly those with a known ’spicy’ provenance such as Black Pepper, Cinnamon, Clove etc. This may cause a tingling and/or reddening of the skin. If you are sensitive to such natural ingredients you will probably know by now but just in case……

PLEASE patch test our products on the inside of your wrist before using them on your face…………if you find you have a sensitivity to any of our 100% natural skincare products just return them in their original packaging and we will either exchange or issue a refund including the cost of returning – your consumer rights are not affected by this offer.
