This is my second order of this face cream. It has worked wonders on wrinkles and is keeping gravity from pulling my face down. Highly recommended!

About
Luxury Goat Milk Bath and Beauty Goodies Crafted Fresh with Loving Hands
It all started with two cute bottle baby Pygmy goats joining our family in March of 2005. Our little urban farm in Portland, Oregon was the home of those two original goats (Rosie and Daisy) until they passed away from happy, old age. For about 6 years, we enjoyed raising sweet baby goats (Pygmy and Nigerian Dwarf) and adopting them to wonderful families.
I loved being with the goats and trained them for milking, but was never a big milk drinker, so in 2006, I decided to try my hand at goat's milk soap. The first batch was made -- and boy, did it take FOREVER and a day to trace! (That can be normal by the way. 😉) Despite the lengthy process, this did begin an obsession for goat's milk bath and body products! Once you try them, you will understand why!
Three years later, in 2009, the very first batch of goat's milk lotion was created. I was so excited with my ingredients: Shea Butter, Coconut, and Olive Oil with pure Goat Milk. The end result was so very disappointing! Grainy, thick, and far too greasy. So.... countless hours of research went into figuring out just what went wrong and striving to perfect it.
2017 has seen several creams and soaps added to the line as well as BB cream and full-coverage foundation! • I am constantly learning and working hard to improve my formulas, always using lots of rich and creamy Goat Milk!
No longer raising goats means no longer having access to my own goat milk. The milk I now purchase for use in my products comes from a happy farm in Washington, made by goats allowed to roam on beautiful green pasture, absolutely no chemicals or GMO ingredients in their diet.
Creating Goat's Milk products is a small hobby which I enjoy. It helps support my unpaid volunteering as a mentor and Bible educator in the Deaf community.

Rosie My Luv
Our First Goat, A Sweet Memory
Rosie was purchased in March '05, at one week old. She was a bottle-fed baby, our 1st goat, a sweet pet! Rosie gave birth to four sweet babies and then enjoyed a life of sweet retirement until summer 2015 when she passed away. She is missed!

Daisy Mae
A Sweet Memory
Daisy Mae arrived in March '05 shortly after Rosie. She was a very sweet, rather impatient little goat. Ever ready to take her “goat vitamins” she lived to the rich old age of 13 years! Photo is Daisy with one of her girls.

Shop policies
In striving to be a good steward of the earth (and a recycling-obsessed Oregonian! cue the Portlandia skit 😁) when packaging orders, I re-use shipping boxes, padded envelopes, bubble wrapping, etc. when possible.
• If you decide to purchase items from my shop, please remember that ALL of them are handmade and very slight differences between batches are fairly common.
Also, keep in mind that with handmade soap, there are NO HARSH DETERGENTS (this is good! 😉) but also means there may not be the same lather you are accustomed to if recently switching over from commercial soaps.
Many thanks for supporting small Etsy shops and considering my Goat Milk skin care and makeup line in your quest for living a little more safely!

Frequently asked questions
What is the shelf life of this product?
You can expect my organically preserved creams and soaps to last 4-6+ months when stored in a cool, dark place, in an airtight and waterproof container. Remember to use only clean fingers when dipping into your jar! ☺️
My creations are not intended to last indefinitely so please use them up within 6 months or toss them!
Can this product be customized?
Yes! I am happy to custom create soap, lotion, creams, makeup, hair conditioners, etc. There is a minimum order of $30 — though I am happy to waive this for my regular customers.
What is your order processing time?
I strive to create, package, and ship within 3 business days. Orders are typically sent out on Mondays and Thursdays.
What makes your products different?
In lieu of water, I choose organic Aloe Vera juice and pure Goat Milk from happy goats. Rich herbal infusions make an appearance in several creams and soaps. These ingredients make for a superior product that does much good for the skin!
Can I use this on my face?
I recommend purchasing a sample first and doing a small patch test as with any beauty product.
The majority of my creams and soaps are perfect for use on the face! It is recommended to only use unscented products on delicate facial skin and especially around the eyes. Triple B'Udder contains some comedogenic butters (can clog pores), so this one is not be the best choice for face. ☺️
Bulk buy + refills
If you decide to purchase bulk buy/refills your order will be sent without jars and labels saving you 💰.
Ready your own jars or bottles and caps by sterilizing first using boiling water or 70% alcohol (30% water). Allow containers to dry thoroughly. Nip off a small corner of your lotion bag and squeeze product into your containers. Cap immediately and store in a cool, dry place.
Can I get free samples?
My shop is small and I cannot afford to send out free samples. I am, however, quite generous with my regular customers and they often receive freebies with their orders! ☺️
Sample purchases made receive a $5 coupon code good toward full size!
