Goat Milk Soap Review by Kristin for a Newspaper Article
"Hi! I would be happy to answer some questions for the newspaper article… I can’t say enough about the soap & the business that Jim & PJ have created –I brag about them every chance I get!
Why Buy?
That’s easy!...It is tremendous value – the bars of soap are large in size, but not in price. The variety of scents (I call them flavors because they smell good enough to eat!) is second to none…and they keep expanding – to cater to anyone’s favorite! And, the fact that they have added “scrub” and “luffa” to their line-up only furthers their realm of possibilities. Another great feature of Jim & PJ’s soap is that it has an impressive lather! It may seem like a small detail but honestly, if there are no bubbles, you just don’t feel as clean! It’s creamy, smells wonderful, it’s individually packaged in its own little burlap bag (another unique feature of their soap), and it comes from a “one-family-show”; an honest, friendly, hard-working family - who not only raise the goats that produce the milk to make this wonderful soap, but they, as a family, complete every step of production along the way to deliver one of the best products out there! It’s impressive, really, and using the soap just simply makes you feel good - I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t buy!
Favorite scent?
I have always been a ‘Clean Cotton’ and “Ocean’ girl, but I am currently hooked on 'Lemon'!...and the 'Lime'! Of course I love the 'Oatmeal, Milk & Honey' and the 'Peppermint' is sooo nice (I could go on and on...) My husband is a fan of the ‘Nautical’ and uses the ‘Purity Scrub’ to take care of those workin’ hands – softens them up a bit! Our son (almost 3 years old) likes the 'Watermelon'! It's pink & green!...See? Another unique feature - the soap appeals to all ages!
Supermarket Soap?
Ugh – not a fan…Nothing natural about it! Compared to ‘Goat Milk Stuff’ soap, supermarket soap is just a flakey self-diminishing cake of perfumed film-causing dryness that you will never want to use after trying Jim & PJ’s soap. Goat Milk Stuff soap lasts easily 3 times as long, lathers up like you would expect, has more of a true, non-chemical smell, and makes your skin feel not only cleansed but pampered. You’ll never go back to supermarket soap!
Co-Workers?
They can’t say enough about it! They LOVE it and want more! They appreciate all the different smells -everyone has their own personal favorite!…And, I have received so many compliments on how cleverly the soaps are individually packaged in the burlap bags – each with a business card inside (makes it convenient for re-ordering!)…and the price is just right!...We recently placed an order – over 40 bars, and as soon as everyone had their soap, I had emails flooding in – asking if we can get together another order before the Holidays so people can stock up for gift giving! Speaking of re-ordering, another added plus to 'Goat Milk Stuff' is the service. I emailed PJ the order, she replied…The box was delivered the next week – all 44 bars! Amazing…now THAT is service that you just can’t beat! Convenience...Service...Fair Price...Everybody wins!
When Jim & PJ began this venture, I remember thinking "Hmmm. Well? Hey, why not?...Hope it works out for them."... Now? I am amazed at their diligence and blown away at their success - and, proud! (I have been sampling this soap from the beginning and, like I said, I brag about them and their soap every chance I get!) Think about it - It's the all American dream...they had a vision...followed their hearts... and are making a living producing a natural, solidly made product that benefits all those who use it... you can’t ask for anything better than that! And, it's refreshing to see it be such a success. As Jim's sister, I may be a bit biased, but I can tell you the Jonas Family works hard to make the best soap they can - and they are doing it & doing it real well - I commend them!
I hope this info has helped - their web site is a great resource... oh the information! They really know their "stuff"! :-}
