Long before loofahs and luxurious lathers, there was dirt. And there was body odor. And there were curious, clever humans who noticed that a mysterious mixture of rainwater, animal fat, and ashes flowing down the side of Mount Sapo made things clean.
That, dear reader, is the (slightly mythical, but undeniably charming) origin story of soap.
Archaeologists believe that Babylonians were among the first to make soap, around 2800 B.C., using water, alkali, and cassia oil. Ancient Egyptians bathed regularly and even added scented oils and animal fats to their soap mixtures. The Romans refined things further, turning soap into both a cleansing agent and status symbol.
By the Middle Ages, soapmaking had evolved into a true craft, with variations across Europe, like Aleppo soap (made with olive and laurel oils) and Marseille soap (the classic French beauty staple still beloved today). But the true glow-up came during the 19th century, when mass production made soap accessible to all.
Now, soap isn’t just about getting clean, it’s about how you clean. Enter: the age of natural, handmade soap bars and the skincare darling of them all… goat milk soap.
Why Goat Milk Soap is the G.O.A.T (Greatest of All Time).
Goat milk soap may seem like a trendy new arrival on the clean beauty scene, but it’s actually been used for centuries. Cleopatra herself was said to bathe in goat’s milk to keep her skin soft and luminous (and who are we to argue with Cleopatra?).
Let’s get into the creamy details of why goat milk soap has taken over natural skincare TikTok, eco-friendly Instagram feeds, and farmers markets across the country:
1. Hydration Heaven
Goat milk is rich in fatty acids, triglycerides, and natural emollients that help lock in moisture. Unlike harsh, store-bought soaps that can leave skin feeling tight and dry, goat milk soap has a rich, creamy lather that hydrates and nourishes as it cleans.
Perfect for:
2. Gentle Exfoliation with Lactic Acid
Naturally present in goat milk, lactic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that gently sloughs away dead skin cells. This promotes cell turnover, revealing smoother, softer skin without the irritation that stronger exfoliants can cause.
Your skin will literally glow—with zero scrubbing required.
3. Skin-Loving Vitamins & Minerals
Goat milk contains:
It’s like your daily multivitamin, but in bar form.
4. Naturally Balanced pH
The pH of goat milk is similar to that of human skin, which means goat milk soap supports the skin’s acid mantle, helping to protect against bacteria, pollutants, and moisture loss.
If you struggle with eczema, rosacea, or chronic redness, goat milk soap can be a total game-changer.
