Goat milk soap is the product of a chemical process called saponification which occurs when acids (in the form of vegetable oils) are combined with an alkali (a solution of sodium hydroxide and water) and produce a mixture of soap and glycerin. This soap, referred to as “cold processed soap” takes about four weeks to cure (air dry). When the goat milk soap is ready, it is shaved and cubed into small pieces and more herbs as well as essential oils, and fragrances are added to create a pour over solution using the best quality glycerin available. This creates a slippery substance that makes bubbles and makes us clean and smells great and is wonderful for our skin! Our soaps will not dry your skin but will, instead, help your skin to retain its natural moisture. We believe you will tell a wonderful difference in your skin when you are using our goat milk products. It is not as much what we put into them as what we do NOT put in them (like all those chemicals that dry your skin). Today people are aware of aromatherapy using oils and their aromas to help the body emotionally and physically. Since the sense of smell plays a significant role in overall good health, it makes sense that we should surround ourselves with what makes us feel our best!

This soap is created with a blend of Rose Geranium, Plaintain, Lavender, Cedar Oil, Eucalyptus, Mints and Lemongrass, to naturally discourage insects when you are outside. Wash your arms, ankles, back of neck, and any of the places insects tend to bother you with this soap before going outside to garden, walk, or while camping out. Odor Removing Soap: Great kitchen soap! This soap is created with a blend of lemongrass essential oil,patchouli, and other natural odor removing herbs.

This soap is also listed on the fragrance list as S-14, Morningstar as some folks love using it for their regular bath soap as well.
Lavender from Winters Moon Farm: As far back as the Roman Era lavender was used to treat illness because of its anti-bacterial and other healing properties, eliminate bad smells, and discourage many insects such as moths. Lavender is very calming and adds comfort anywhere it is used!
	Lavender Dream Pillow: $10.00 each. These little flat pillows are filled with a lavender bud and herb blend. Slip it inside your pillow case for a more relaxed, peaceful sleep.
	Lavender Eye Pillow: $7.00 each. Place over your eyes for relaxation and/or relief. We keep some in Ziploc bags in the freezer to have ready for cool relief when needed for bruises on the body (great for kids boo-boos), stress relief, sinus ailment relief or swollen eyes. They can also be heated for minutes in the microwave and used as a compress for headaches. Be sure to check the pillow for heat before placing on your eyes as each microwave promotes heat at different levels – you want the pillow warm but not so hot it will burn your skin! Each person’s body reacts to things differently. Experiment with the pillow room temperature, cold, or heated to find which way serves you best.
	Lavender Sachets: Package of 2 sachets for $4.00 Place sachets in your drawers or linen closets to repel moths and other insects with the wonderful smell of natural lavender. The fresh scent of lavender will last a long time, but if it should start to lose its scent, a slight squeeze on the sachet will release more fragrance from the buds. Lavender sachets are also great to use in your clothes dryer. Squeeze the sachet bag to release fragrance of the buds prior to placement in the dryer with your wet laundry. The sachet will enhance your sheets, towels or clothing with the soothing yet delicate smell of natural lavender. A dryer sachet will last for at least 5 dryer loads. Other ideas for lavender sachets: Place them in dresser drawers, desk drawers (home and office) , suitcases being stored or packed for traveling, in automobiles, linen closets, kitchen drawers where tea towels are stored, in shoes and boots, or just roll them in your hands and let the aroma relieve tension!
