Christmas Gift Sets

Are you looking for a nice personal gift for Christmas? Look no further! I created a little gift set that has my latest soaps, new bath bombs and sugar cubes.
Bath Bombs are great if you want to take a relaxing bath and enjoy the pleasant aroma. Fragrance or essential oils can be custom made to suit your taste and preferences.
Nice thing about Sugar Cubes is that they are absolutely mess free. You can keep them outside of your shower and just grab one cube and use it right away. I add a little bit of Shea butter to nourish the skin, but they don’t feel that greasy feeling as other sugar scrubs do.

Why Goat Milk?

I have a lot of questions from people - why do you use goat milk? Why is it so good for your skin? What makes it so special?


Well, to answer these questions I need to explain what the goat milk does for the skin, and what the benefits are.

Milk soaps in general are more creamier bars and contain whey protein and lactic acid. I'm sure you've all heard about Cleopatra, and her legendary beauty secret - milk and honey baths. Honey is a great antiseptic and milk helps to moisturize and soften the skin.


However, not all milk is the same, though, and when it comes to making natural skin care treatments goats milk has several unique properties that give it the edge over cow's milk.


First, goat milk has better moisturizing abilities due to the nature of its fat and protein structures. If you've ever smelled goat milk that was old or improperly processed, you know it has a very distinctive odor. (Properly processed goat milk does not smell any different from cow's milk, by the way.) The unique odor comes from the significantly larger amounts of three medium-chain fatty acids, known as capric, caprylic and caproic acid.

Because goat milk has a much larger number of these smaller fat molecules, it is more readily absorbed by the skin. Goats milk protein structures are also shorter than those of cow's milk. The increased accessibility of the fat and protein from goat milk helps leave skin smooth and supple.


Finally goat milk is rich in vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin that acts as an antioxidant and is important to maintaining skin health. Goat milk provides up to 47% more vitamin A than cow's milk. Furthermore, goat milk contains vitamin A in its final form--ready to use--while cow's milk contains the precursor form, beta-carotene, which our bodies must then convert to vitamin A.

We went pro

It is official - we are in the business :-)


I just got registered with the state as EZ Soaps, LLC. It looks simple, but I'm sure there are some things that are not obvious to me yet. I'm working on purchasing insurance, setting up with the state, thinking how am I going to sell my soap. Thousands thoughts are running through my head. But I'm excited, soapmaking is fun and I enjoy doing it. There are a lot of things to do yet, and I'm at a very beginning. Hopefully, it is going to be fun and interesting journey in my life.
