(What is so special about Goat’s Milk?)
Hay! Word is out that Goats are not just your standin’-pretty, cute-looking, mowing furballs, and though somewhat comical, baaa…also surprisingly intelligent amongst the animal kingdom – as sources from new research revealed. In fact, they belong to a diverse group of mammals called ungulates, which include ultra-smart species like dolphins, whales and elephants – “all renowned for their keen memories and sophisticated social structures.”
 
Now, let’s bring on the Goat and listen to what the Goat has to say…
 
  1. Goatsmilk is packed with vitamins such as A, B1, B6, B12, C, D, E, etc., minerals such as Zinc, Copper, Iron, Selenium, etc., fatty acids, amino acids, citric acid, antioxidants and enzymes, all of which are needed for our skin to age healthily.
  2. Goatsmilk is a natural emollient that gets absorbed into our skin instantly, creating a moisture barrier to keep it soft, smooth and supple for a long period of time.
  3. Goatsmilk has a particularly creamy texture that gives off a luxurious softness to our skin by penetrating its upper layer and reaching the cracks that may form, helping to delay signs of ageing such as wrinkles, fine lines and sun spots.
  4. Goatsmilk milk protein contains powerful antibacterial and antimicrobial properties; effective in dealing with problematic skin conditions such as Eczema, Acne, Psoriasis, Dermatitis, Rosacea etc. They help prevent the growth of bacteria and germs and destroy the ones that are already on our skin.
  5. Goatsmilk helps keep the pH level of our body balanced. Research has shown that goatsmilk contains caprylic acid, a fatty acid that helps lower the pH balance of the soap and makes it almost similar to that of the human body. As a result, our skin can absorb the nutrients from the goatsmilk more efficiently.
  6. Goatsmilk is enriched with alpha hydroxyl acid, effective in exfoliating dead skin cells and encouraging the growth of fresh new cells on our skin. This not only helps in the repairing of damaged skin, but also gives about a young and healthy look.
