Natural Handcrafted Soap bar – with Goat or Cow milk?

"Showgirl" produces some of the excellant milk that goes into Garland Goat Soap bars.
We’ve looked at some of the reason’s goat milk is a valuable addition to your skin-care. Perhaps this has raised a question for some of you: Why do we use goats milk in our natural soap bars, rather than cows milk? Does it make a difference? Well, as a matter of fact, it does! Although all milk, to some degree, has good skin-care qualities, goat milk is especially rich, full of nutrients for your skin. 
The composition of goat milk differs from that of cow milk. Goat milk is higher than cow milk in vitamins A (helps prevent aging effects in your skin, brown spots, wrinkles, and dryness), B1 (thiamin), B12, calcium (helps clear blemished skin and revitalizes lifeless, tired-looking skin), iron, niacin, and phosphorus. Compared to cow milk, goat milk is higher in small and medium chain fatty acids (which richly moisturize your skin), including caprylic acid which helps our soap to clean without drying out the skin. 
All milk contains certain amounts of natural emollients, vitamins and triglycerides that moisturize the skin. However, goat milk has a unique protein structure that enables higher absorption of the milk’s natural emollients. And of course, the higher the absorption level of the emollients, the more effective the moisturizing properties of the soap are! So while cow’s milk may also be good for your skin, goat’s milk definitely has the cutting edge in value for a great bar of handcrafted natural soap!
