Today we are showing you how we create one of our favourite handmade soaps, a simple, natural, unscented Goats Milk soap.

We will be using the cold process method and showing you how we incorporate the milk into our lye water solution in a way that ensures it does not scorch or burn.

Goat's milk is a fantastic addition to soap. It is packed with vitamins and minerals that can be really beneficial for the skin and we find that this soap is popular with our customers who suffer with sensitive or problem skin.

It is a good idea to have some prior knowledge of cold process soap making before attempting to create milk soaps as they are a little trickier to get right than regular soaps, however, with a little practice and careful checks on things like temperature they can be really satisfying to create.

If you wish to have a go at this design, you will need the following ingredients (the weights given below will give enough batter to fill one of the standard loaf moulds that we use in this video):

109g Sodium Hydroxide
109g Water
109g Frozen Goats Milk
340g Olive Oil
99g Sweet Almond Oil
57g Castor Oil
184g Coconut Oil
75g Shea Butter
