New beauty products are always hitting the market and whilst they might be effective, they’re expensive too! It came to my attention the other day that more beauty products are including goat’s milk in their products. I am not a fan of goat’s milk at all in terms of flavor, but I wouldn’t mind using it in my soap or body lotion, so long as I can’t smell it. New beauty for your skin means looking after it naturally and goat’s milk might be the best way to start.

I think goat’s milk has been used as a form of moisturization for many years, since the days of the ancient Romans and Egyptians. But it seems to be a little more prominent this year. If I am wondering why this is, then I am sure many of you are wondering the exact thing.

Apparently, according to skin experts, the milk contains alpha-hydroxy acids. These acids can help remove dead cells from your skin. In addition, goat’s milk is higher in fat than cow’s milk, which helps hydrate the skin. Plus, goat’s milk contains vitamin A, which encourages healthy skin production, as well as B2, which is needed for overall good health. You see, it makes an ideal ingredient for any new beauty product out there.

Here’s a supplemental reading onΒ cow milk soap vs goat milk soapΒ for a deeper and comprehensive information.

New Beauty And Goats Milk For Skin

Okay, so there is quite extensive information available about goat’s milk and why it’s beneficial for your skin. For centuries, people have been reaping its benefits – I’m talking about ancient times. Some even believe that Cleopatra used to bathe in goat’s milk to preserve her youthful appearance.

Myth or not, science has proven that goat’s milk-based products contain loads of beneficial properties that help keep your skin healthy. These are healing properties that help treat your skin ailments like eczema, psoriasis, and acne. I want to know what it is that makes goat milk exceptionally healthy for our skin.

It’s Loaded With Essential Nutrients

There is a lot of science reporting that goat’s milk contains essential micronutrients. And all of them are necessary to keep our skin healthy. Interestingly, it is only goat’s milk that contains the perfect concentrations without the need for additives.

These micronutrients include vitamins A, B1, B6, B12, C, D, and E. Goat’s milk also contains other elements with proven healing and rejuvenating properties. This new beauty ingredient is filled with traces of selenium, zinc, copper, and iron, which keep your skin nourished and healthy. You will find that a lot of high-end cosmetic products are not quick to claim that their products contain all these ingredients. However, when they do make these claims, there is often no explanation as to how they got in the mixture first.

Goat milk also has a unique chemical composition and because of this, it can easily penetrate the skin layer. Therefore, it has the ability to penetrate deeper into the skin tissue with enough nutrients for the skin to remain healthy and look radiant and beautiful from within.

Moisturizes Like No Other

As I said, no other milk contains such a rich fat content as goat’s milk. It consists of fatty acids, proteins, and naturally contains glycerin which contributes to an amazing moisturizing mixture. Since it’s a natural emollient, your skin can quickly absorb it, which creates a skin barrier to keep it strong, protected, and smooth.

I also love the creamy texture of goat milk products, as it helps reach small cell cracks and gaps which often make skin feel dry and itchy. Other soaps and creams – even expensive ones – often remove natural oils from your skin. This will leave your skin dry and tight. The fatty nature of goat milk soap helps your skin maintain a healthy natural oil balance, and even replenishes dry skin.

New Beauty Is Gentle On The Skin

All skin products nowadays need to be naturally gentle to your skin. Toxic chemicals and harsh ingredients are becoming a lot less common. That’s why companies are creating soaps with goat’s milk in it because it doesn’t contain harsh chemical compounds, only beneficial ones. The bonus is that most are handmade and naturally sourced. In fact, the naturally occurring lactic acid helps get rid of impurities, which leaves your skin looking flawless.

Because milk contains alpha-hydroxy acids, it is able to break the bonds between dead cells, making it an amazingly gentle exfoliant. You’ll have an incredibly clean, smooth, and glowy appearance after using it!Β  Experts say that alpha hydroxy acids promote the growth of new skin cells, which repair damaged skin and make healthy skin appear vibrant.

Do you have sensitive skin? Then, take advantage! Goat milk soap isn’t harsh like many other types of soap. Some are so gentle that your eyes won’t even burn if it had to accidentally travel into them.

Reduce Inflammation and Age Better

Goat milk soap’s anti-inflammatory properties come from the fat molecules present in the milk. If you use it regularly, goat milk soap can offer relief for skin inflammation.

Goat milk soap is high in antioxidants such as vitamins A, C, and E. They prevent oxidative damage caused by free radicals.

The antioxidant and mild exfoliant properties work together to help delay the appearance of signs of aging, such as fine lines and sunspots.

Treat Acne, Blemishes, And Eczema

Many people struggle with skin breakouts, irritations or rashes. Goat milk is a wonderful new beauty ingredient to use because of the anti-bacterial proteins it contains. They help treat acne and blemishes by killing any acne-causing bacteria that usually trigger breakouts.

Those same properties help soothe other skin infections such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and certain types of dermatitis.

Protects Your Skin From UV Rays

Science says goat’s milk also has a high selenium content, which is amazing for sun protection.

Too many people develop skin cancer from too much sun worldwide. But using goat’s milk can help add an extra layer of protection to your skin.

Selenium also has antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties that prevent cell damage and inflammation caused by UV rays.

New Beauty Is Natural

Generally, any product using goat’s milk is kept very simple, without any toxic additives. I know that my skin prefers gentler products, or else it gets itchy and dry. Pure goat’s milk products don’t contain any detergents, alcohols, petroleum-derived products, or dyes. Some don’t even have any added fragrances. But, if you like a bit of a scent like me, manufacturers usually get the scent from essential oils, which are also beneficial for your skin.

Give it a try and after a week, let us know how your skin looks and feels.
