Our goat milk soaps and lotions are made with simple, natural ingredients to soothe and protect eczema-prone skin.

Goat milk soap is often recommended for people with eczema because of its soothing and nourishing properties that can help manage the symptoms of this skin condition.

Here’s why goat milk soap for eczema can be beneficial in soothing the skin:

Moisturizing: Goat milk is rich in fatty acids and glycerin, which help to deeply hydrate the skin. Eczema-prone skin is often dry, and the moisturizing properties of goat milk soap can help alleviate dryness and reduce itching.
Gentle on Skin: Goat milk soap is typically made with natural ingredients and lacks harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances, and preservatives that can irritate sensitive skin. This makes it a gentle cleansing option for people with eczema.
Rich in Vitamins and Minerals: Goat milk is a good source of vitamins A, D, and E, which are essential for skin health. Vitamin A, in particular, can help promote skin cell turnover and repair damaged skin, while vitamin E acts as an antioxidant, protecting the skin from environmental stressors.
Anti-inflammatory Properties: The proteins and fats in goat milk have anti-inflammatory effects, which can help soothe inflamed, irritated skin, reducing redness and discomfort associated with eczema.
Balanced pH: The pH level of goat milk is close to that of human skin, which helps maintain the skin’s natural barrier. A balanced pH can help prevent irritation and keep the skin's protective layer intact.
Mild Exfoliation: Goat milk contains lactic acid, a gentle alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that can help exfoliate the skin. This mild exfoliation can remove dead skin cells without causing further irritation, which is beneficial for keeping eczema-prone skin smooth and soft.
Natural Humectants: Goat milk soap naturally contains glycerin, which acts as a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin. This helps keep the skin hydrated, which is crucial for managing eczema.

These properties make goat milk soap for eczema, a soothing and nourishing option, helping to moisturize and protect the skin while minimizing irritation.

Goat Milk Soap for Eczema

Eczema is a common skin condition affecting nearly 15 million people across America.

While it may be common, no one enjoys dealing with the dry, itchy, red, and bumpy skin that comes with the condition.

Our goat milk soaps offer a natural remedy that can provide relief to eczema-prone skin.

The Best Goat Milk Soap For Eczema

Everyone is unique, and each eczema case will vary by person - so there is no one ideal soap for everyone. Below we have collected the top goat milk soaps as recommended by our customers dealing with eczema.

We recommend starting with our Purity Goat Milk Soap, which has no added color or fragrance and is made with simple ingredients to soothe your skin.

We have included the top goat milk soap choices for those with eczema on this page, so that you can select which of our Goat Milk Stuff products is best suited for relieving your symptoms.

Which Goat Milk Soap is Good for Eczema?

Each goat milk soap in our Eczema product line has raw goat milk to help moisturize and offer relief. However, we offer several variations, each of which has its own blend of unique ingredients.

Purity Goat Milk Soap is an unscented soap with simple ingredients and is our first recommendation for eczema relief.
Tea Tree Goat Milk Soap is our Purity Goat Milk Soap with Tea Tree essential oil added. Tea Tree has antibacterial and antiviral properties, making it helpful for eczema.
Castile Goat Milk Soap is the gentlest soap we make and contains only organic extra virgin olive oil and raw goat milk. The creamy, lotion-like lather and minimal ingredients make it the goat milk soap we recommend for infants and hyper-sensitive skin.
Calendula Goat Milk Soap is our Castile soap with calendula-infused olive oil and castor oil added to increase lather. Castor oil is known for helping with inflammation and fighting off fungi, characteristics that calendula also possess. Calendula is also antibacterial in nature, helping to soothe eczema.
Activated Bamboo Charcoal Goat Milk Soap is our Purity goat milk soap with added activated bamboo charcoal. This natural ingredient is gentle on the skin and antibacterial too.

6 Steps To Use Goat Milk Soap For Eczema Relief.

We recommend the following steps to start on your goat milk soap journey:

Make sure your soap, lotion, shampoo, make-up, and deodorant are as natural and chemical-free as possible. Chemicals can aggravate eczema and are hidden in many skincare products.
Use only the unscented Purity Goat Milk Soap for a week to see if that offers any relief. We have the bar soap for the shower or Purity Goat Milk Bath for enjoying a soak in the tub.
After a week of exclusively using the Purity goat milk soap, try adding the Unscented Solid Lotion to see if it improves your skin. Some people find it helps, and others don’t, so we recommend the soap first and then the lotion. By not trying them both for the first time in the same week, you can see the impact each one has.
Change your laundry habits and switch to our Laundry Soap with simple ingredients and no unnecessary chemicals. Clothes, sheets, and towels touch your skin on a regular basis. Chemicals in commercial laundry detergent remain on those items and can irritate your skin. We also have a chemical-free Natural Deodorant that is a great solution for irritated armpits.
If your scalp needs some help, consider trying our Goat Milk Soap Shampoo Bar without chemicals that could aggravate your eczema.
After you’ve tried the Purity goat milk soap, you can experiment to see if one of our other Goat Milk Soaps for eczema (like the Calendula, Castile, Tea Tree, or Charcoal) works any better. Try each one for at least one week so you can give it a fair test. There are smaller sizes available (see the size comparison chart), so you can save money while you are figuring out which Goat Milk Soap is best for your skin.

Eczema Skincare Frequently Asked Questions

What is the root cause of eczema?

The root cause of this skin condition remains unknown; however, scientists have found that an overactive immune system, genetics, stress, and environmental triggers contribute to eczema flare-ups. The overactive immune system results in your skin becoming more sensitive to triggers and irritants, resulting in red, dry, itchy, and bumpy skin.

Should You Moisturize Eczema?

Moisturizing is a key step in managing eczema because it will help protect the outer layer of the skin, which is the layer of skin most damaged in eczema patients. Moisturizing can also help keep the skin from becoming dry and itchy.

Is Goat Milk Soap Good for Eczema?

While no clinical trials exist, thousands of people have reported relief from their eczema symptoms when using goat milk soap.

Goat milk is made up of compounds that are gentle on sensitive skin. Raw goat’s milk is full of alpha-hydroxy acids, which help remove dead skin cells and encourage new skin cell growth. Lactic acid also contains probiotics, which have been used as an effective topical treatment for infants with eczema.

The proteins and fatty acids in goat milk can provide a great moisture barrier that encourages deep hydration for your skin. In addition, goat milk can have anti-inflammatory properties, which can reduce irritation and redness common in eczema and other sensitive skin conditions.

What Should You Not Put on Eczema?

When caring for your eczema, there are various products and substances you should avoid to prevent the condition from flaring up. Products containing glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and retinol tend to leave the skin feeling dry and irritated.

Fragrant-infused soaps and products can also trigger your eczema. Some of the preservatives found in hygiene and cosmetic products, like methylparaben or butylparaben, may also irritate the skin, leading to inflammation.

Goat Milk Stuff products will never contain any of these substances.

How Often Should I Use Goat Milk Soap for Eczema Relief?

Use Purity Goat Milk Soap, or whichever Goat Milk Soap proves best for your skin, in place of the soap you’ve been using during your regular bathing or showering routine.

Continued use for at least one week is recommended to truly see how the soap affects your skin. The ingredients we’ve used to formulate our Goat Milk Soap should cleanse your skin without leaving it dry and irritated. If you experience worsening of your symptoms, stop using immediately.

Some people have found that once they get their eczema under control, they are able to switch to an Essential Oil Goat Milk Soap. Others find it’s best to continue to use one of the five recommended Goat Milk Soaps for eczema. Some people also rotate the soaps periodically to avoid building a sensitivity over time. You need to test them on your skin to see what works best for you.

Is eczema fungal or bacterial?

Eczema is not caused by either a fungal or bacterial infection. Instead, it is a type of inflammatory skin condition often characterized by dry, irritated, and itchy skin.

Is eczema caused by stress?

Stress can aggravate and worsen eczema symptoms, but it is not considered to be a direct cause of the condition.

What happens if eczema is left untreated?

Untreated eczema can lead to a number of complications. The most common complication is a skin infection.

Why Choose Goat Milk Stuff?

When we began our journey with Goat Milk Stuff, our aim was to create natural, chemical-free soaps for our family. We soon discovered that our goat milk soap products nourished the skin, offering added therapeutic benefits for those suffering from skin conditions such as eczema.

We have also created and offer a range of complimentary products, such as our lip balms, laundry soap, and lotions, that can help provide further relief to those seeking respite from eczema outbreaks.

We are so grateful that we have been able to help those struggling with skin conditions like this and hope that our goat milk soaps for eczema and the rest of our goat milk products will bring relief from unwanted skin issues, as they have for thousands of others, because healthy skin is happy skin!
