Why Is Everyone Using Goat Milk Soap?

Is goat milk soap the G.O.A.T (greatest of all time)? Well, according to Pinterest's annual report, searches for this barnyard bar have gone up 231 percent in the last year alone.

So why are people loving GMS? For starters, it's packed with fatty acids and vitamins to soothe dry or sensitive skin (including those with skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis). Next, if you love a good DIY project and have always fancied yourself a future soap maker, this is a good one to start with as most recipes require just a handful of ingredients. 

Our favorite recipe also features oatmeal (for a light exfoliation), but we're going to be honest, we typically just pick up a bar (or three) online.
