Turmeric & Ginger goat milk soap
$8.00
One of our newest natural blend creations:
We wanted to combine two natural ingredients that have shown to have wonderful benefits when used in skin care. Turmeric and ginger both have powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and skin lightening properties. We also added some avocado butter for extra moisturizing along with a small amount of sage leaf and orange essential oil for a fresh light scent.
As with all our soaps, we begin with a generous amount of nutritious goats milk from our own herd of dairy goats, along with olive oil; soybean oil; palm oil; coconut oil; We then added the organic ginger root and turmeric powder; sage leaf and orange essential as well.
Why goat milk soap?
We have sensitive skin and even if that's not your story goat milk soap is full of healthy fatty acids that build up your skin’s barrier leaving it more nourished and moisturized. A few years ago we found ourselves at a farmer’s market and bought a beautifully molded goat milk soap from a local farmer to use as a shaving bar and joined the goat milk soap team right then and there!
TURMERIC SOAP:
- robust, earthy smell
- turmeric powder that gives your skin that natural glow
- silky, smooth lather

We are head over heels for their line-up of bars and our house is filled with scraps and bits from the kitchen soap tray to the bathtub ledge. Their mission to make eco-friendly soaps that are luxurious but remain at a price point for everyday use is admirable and another reason why we love them.

Why use turmeric in your skin care? Turmeric powder belongs to the ginger family, and it’s thought to have skin benefits. In particular, turmeric contains curcumin, an antioxidant thought to have anti-inflammatory properties. It gives a lovely orange color to the soap as well.

DIY Turmeric Melt & Pour Soap
Recipe type: Melt and Pour Soap
- 12 Cavity Rectangle Silicone Mold
- 60 oz. Goat Milk Melt and Pour Soap Base
- 2 tsp. Turmeric Powder
- 0.8 oz. Orange 10X Essential Oil
- 2 Tbsp. 99% Isopropyl Alcohol in Spray Bottle
- Chop 60 ounces of Goat Milk Melt and Pour Soap Base into small, uniform cubes. Place the soap into a large, heat-safe container and melt in the microwave using 60-second bursts. Because it's such a large amount of soap, it will take a little longer to melt.
- While the soap is in the microwave, mix 2 teaspoons of turmeric powder with 2 tablespoons of 99% isopropyl alcohol. Doing so helps the turmeric more easily mix into the melted soap without chunks.
- In a glass, essential oil-safe container, measure 0.8 ounces of Orange 10X Essential Oil.
- Once the soap is melted, add all the dispersed turmeric powder and the Orange 10X Essential Oil. Use a spatula to mix the ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour the soap into each cavity of the mold. After each pour, spray the top of the bars with 99% isopropyl alcohol to help get rid of bubbles. Allow the soap to fully cool and harden. Remove from the mold and enjoy! Wrap the soap in plastic wrap after unmolding to prevent glycerin dew.
