Other skin conditions like eczema and rosacea, or even overly dry skin, can also contribute to sensitive skin. If you or a loved one are struggling with sensitive skin, we have good news.

Our goat milk soap has helped thousands of people with relief from their sensitive skin struggles since we started Goat Milk Stuff in 2008.

Which Goat Milk Soap is Best for Sensitive Skin?

We have five Goat Milk Soaps that commonly get great feedback from our customers who are looking for relief from their sensitive skin symptoms.

  • Purity Goat Milk Soap - Our unscented soap made with raw goat milk is very gentle, making it an excellent first choice for those with sensitive skin.
  • Tea Tree Goat Milk Soap - Made from Purity Goat Milk Soap blended with tea tree essential oil. This essential oil is a well-known and effective antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal. Tea tree oil is also anti-inflammatory in nature, helping to soothe painful, irritated skin.
  • Castile Goat Milk Soap - Made with only organic extra virgin olive oil and raw goat milk, this soap is more lotion-like and will not lather as well as Purity. Our Castile Goat Milk Soap is the gentlest soap we make and the one we recommend for hyper-sensitive skin and for newborns.
  • Calendula Goat Milk Soap - We’ve added castor oil to our Castile soap to increase the lather and infused it with calendula flowers, which are well known for their ability to reduce skin irritation.
  • Activated Bamboo Charcoal Goat Milk Soap - Made from Purity Goat Milk Soap with added charcoal. Be sure to test this on a small patch of skin first to make sure you don't have any charcoal sensitivities.

6 Steps to Use Goat Milk Soap for Sensitive Skin

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

  1. 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.
  2. Use only the unscented Purity Goat Milk Soap for a week to see if that helps your sensitive skin. We have the bar soap for the shower or Purity Goat Milk Bath for enjoying a soak in the tub.
  3. After a week of exclusively using the Purity Goat Milk Soap, try adding the Unscented Solid Goat Milk 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.
  4. Change your laundry habits and switch to our Laundry Goat Milk Soap with simple ingredients and no unnecessary chemicals. Clothes, sheets, and towels touch your skin on a regular basis. Chemicals in commercial laundry detergents remain on those items and can further irritate already sensitive skin.
  5. If your scalp needs some help, consider trying our Unscented Goat Milk Soap Shampoo Bar without chemicals that could aggravate a dry and sensitive scalp.
  6. After you've tried the Purity Goat Milk Soap, you can experiment to see if one of our other goat milk soaps for sensitive skin (like the Castile, Calendula, 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.
  • Wet your hands

    Step 1: Wet your skin with warm water

    Warm water helps prepare the skin for cleansing by loosening dirt, oil, and excess debris.

  • Create a goat milk soap lather

    Step 2: Create a creamy lather

    Rub the goat milk soap between your hands or on a soft washcloth to create a rich, creamy lather before applying it to your skin.

  • wash with goat milk soap

    Step 3: Gently cleanse the skin

    Massage the lather onto your face or skin using light circular motions, allowing the soap to remove excess dirt, oil, and everyday buildup.

  • Rinse your skin after washing

    Step 4: Rinse and pat skin dry

    Rinse away the lather with clean water. Use a soft towel and gently pat the skin dry rather than rubbing.

Why Our Family Makes Goat Milk Soap

Goat Milk Stuff is a family-run business that began on our farm with a simple goal: make high-quality soap using fresh goat milk from our own herd.

Because we raise the goats ourselves, every batch of soap begins with fresh milk produced right here on our farm. That milk is combined with nourishing oils using traditional soapmaking methods to create the creamy lather our customers love.

Since 2008, thousands of families have chosen our goat milk soaps as part of their daily skincare routine. Many customers with sensitive skin prefer our fragrance-free soaps because they are made with simple ingredients and no added dyes.

If you are looking for a gentle cleansing option, you can explore our goat milk soap collection or start with our most popular fragrance-free goat milk soap.
