Dry Skin Frequently Asked Questions
What Is The Main Cause Of Dry Skin?
There is no single cause for dry skin. Rather, there are many factors that can contribute to and aggravate this skin condition, such as taking long, hot baths or showers, using harsh skincare products or cleaning products, sun damage, and cold or dry weather conditions.
Is Goat Milk Soap Good For Dry Skin?
While goat milk has not been scientifically proven to help dry skin, many people who have used our Goat Milk Stuff products have found it to provide relief for their dry skin as well as other issues like eczema and psoriasis. This is due to the fatty acids, vitamins, and other nutrients in goat milk which naturally help nourish, moisturize and exfoliate the skin.
How Can I Treat Dry Skin At Home?
When treating your dry skin, you want to do everything possible to keep the skin hydrated. Some easy treatment tips you can try at home include using a humidifier, taking short baths or showers, avoiding using bath sponges or scrubbing brushes, only using natural, moisturizing soaps, and applying moisturizing lotions after bathing.
How Long Does Dry Skin Take To Heal?
The length of time it takes for your skin to heal will depend on how severe your dry skin already is and how well you begin to take care of it. If you begin to use soaps and moisturizers that hydrate your skin, the itchiness or flakiness should start improving within a week or two.

OH BOY!!! Just used my soap for the first time and I'm addicted!!! I love this soap
I ordered several bars to be shipped to my daughter. We both have very dry skin from cold winter weather. This soap is so helpful for that!! Keep up the awesome job!! Thank you !!!

I have dry skin that often leaves me itchy. The organic castile soap is the best I have found to calm down the itch.

I realized yesterday that I have now been getting soap from your family business for a year. Last March, I ordered just one bar of the purity soap to see if it would really make much difference on my younger son with eczema. Within two weeks of using the soap, his eczema was gone and I had stopped using all the prescribed medications. I remember telling my husband, “Well, we’re coming into spring, so maybe it would have gone away anyway. We’ll see what happens when winter comes again.” It occurred to me yesterday that we are through the worst part of winter, and his eczema never came back. Over the year, I have bought lots and LOTS of soap from you! We are now all using it. My husband usually has very dry skin every winter, but not this year. I have hands that crack and bleed in the cold, but not this year. My three children are all doing better using the GMS soap. I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your testimony and the good that the soap has done in our family. Thank you.

My boyfriend's boss used your soap and then bought a bar for my boyfriend because he has psoriasis and thought he would benefit from the soap. Well, I have horrible eczema on my hands and very dry skin in the winter, so I decided to use the soap as well. After only using it twice, my hands look almost completely clear and no longer burn and itch all day long!!!! It's amazing, I put lotion on my hands every single night and have never had results anywhere close to this. Thank you so much!!!!
- Amanda
I can not give this soap enough praise. My husband has very dry skin. Tried it once and now a very firm believer. Loves the smell. Great job.
- Deloris
A friend told me about your soap and I thought I would try it out. I'm not usually big on bar soap but after the first time using your goat milk soap I was amazed at how good my skin felt. I liked it so much I bought some for my son as well and he loved it too. I use to have very dry skin but not anymore. We will use nothing but goat milk soap from now on. Thank you.
- Beverly
I still love your product!!! I have had dry skin my entire life! I guess I had tried every soap and lotion out there!! My husband bought me lotions that were in excess of $40.00 per ounce!! Outrageous! Nothing worked until he heard your family on the Today Show 2 or 3 years ago. He drives a truck and has Sirius Radio, Your show was playing and he ordered me a bar of soap. From there it has just been wonderful for my skin!! I love the lotions, lip balms and everything I have tried so far!!! THANK YOU JONAS FAMILY!! And my skin thanks you too!!! He uses it too! We do not buy soap at the store anymore! I am disabled & take a lot of meds that dry my skin too!! But GMS can take care of it!!

I heard about goatmilkstuff on mashable and decided to try out a bar. I have dry skin and i use normal soaps and body washes, but I always have to apply a lotion or my skin gets itchy. I read other customer testimonials and many people had said that this soap worked really well for dry skin. I received the order of ocean soap and tea tree lufa soap ahead of schedule. And right off the bat, I was amazed by the smell. They really smell incredible.
I just showered and used this soap for the first time, and its been an hour and my skin doesn't feel dry yet...... Let me just say, this is unheard of for me, I didn't apply any lotion or anything and my skin feels amazing, I even used it on my face and it feels fantastic. I'm definitely going to order more, some for my mom too. I highly recommend these soaps, and want to thank you for putting out a great product.
- Akash
I must say I'm amazed with the 'super fast' delivery of my soap as well as the excellence of the customer service. As a first time customer, I will tell you that the product is superior and I'm hard to impress...lol! My dry skin was SO silky and soft after my bath...made me want to jump back into the tub. THANK YOU!!
- Laura

- CANDACE
I just have to say how amazed I am with your products and your service. I just placed my third order yesterday and received it TODAY! You are so quick to get orders processed and shipped - it's amazing! And your soaps are fantastic! I love the scents, espcially the Lemongrass (my favorite), they've helped with my dry skin, my breakouts (better than anything my dermatologist ever prescribed) and I'll never go back to store-bought body washes. You guys ROCK! I love, love, love Goat Milk Stuff! Thank you for being such an amazing family.
- Whitney
We love the soaps!! It has helped my cuticle skin & fingertip splits. Our grandson has had eczema issues since birth - gave him a nautical bar to use at home and it is really making a difference. My husband has dry skin and & sun damage issues and the soaps are really making a difference for him as well. Thank you so much!!
- Jeanne
Thank You!! Thank You!! Thank You!!
I have been trying for years to find the RIGHT cream to get rid of my dry skin and the deep cracks on my hands. I used your Goats Milk Stuff (soap and lotion) and my skin and hands healed in TWO DAYS. WOW!! I got rid of ALL of my old stuff and you now have a permanent customer. God Bless You and All of your family.

I ordered the bar soap and received it quickly, so your service is very good. I just wanted to say that your bar soap is a miracle product. I do suffer from dry skin, and I live in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona, so the air is very dry most of the year. I've been using Dove bar soap with a liquid body wash in the shower for years. It was the best I could achieve. Now, using your bar soap, my skin feels clean and smooth and NO dryness!!!!! I will be a regular customer from now on. I also can't believe how well your bar soap cleans my skin. I can't say enough good about your product and your service. And your stuff is family made in the U.S.A. What a pleasure! Thank you so much for a great product. All the best to you and your whole family.
