Description
Pine Tar goat milk soap is a classic, no-nonsense goat milk soap valued for generations for its skin-supportive properties and deep, woodsy aroma. This bar is crafted for those who need more than just a gentle cleanse—especially customers with hardworking hands, oily skin, or skin that needs extra care.
Fresh goat milk and lard create a mild yet effective base that cleanses without stripping, while olive oil and rice bran oil help maintain skin comfort and balance. Shea butter and kokum butter add nourishment and help counteract dryness often associated with more intensive cleansing bars. Castor oil boosts lather, creating a dense, creamy foam despite the inclusion of pine tar.
Pine tar is known for its traditional use in soaps designed for problem-prone skin, while the essential oil blend of tea tree, eucalyptus, and patchouli enhances the bar’s cleansing character with the naturally smoky aroma of Pine tar. Kaolin clay gently assists with drawing out impurities without irritating the skin, and tussah silk adds a smooth slip that keeps the lather comfortable.
This is an excellent bar for outdoor enthusiasts, mechanics, gardeners, and anyone looking for a rugged soap that still respects the skin.
Handmade in small batches in LaFayette, Georgia.
