We have been making our own Organic Goats Milk Soap since 2018. In those early days, Deborah was lucky to have lots of help from our neighbour Niki who was a soap maker (she traded as Findlays Bar before changing career into teaching). Niki generously shared her soap making knowledge with Deborah to help us to make our own Lint Mill soaps. There has been a lot of learning since then, lots of trial and error with recipes and a lot of effort in finding the six favourite recipes that we feel capture the spirit of The Lint Mill.

Our soap is hand made in small batches of 20 soaps in The Lint Mill kitchen. It is not an industrial process; you might say it’s the very definition of a ‘cottage industry’. It is made from fresh, raw, organic goats’ milk from our goats who Colin hand milks every morning.

We use certified organic oils, butters and essential oils using the traditional ‘cold process’ method. This traditional process known involves mixing quality, organically sourced, natural oils with an alkali mixture, known as lye, which is made with the raw goats milk. Once all the ingredients are mixed, we pour the soap into handmade wooden moulds to set for 48 hours. The soap is then hand cut into individual bars and left to ‘cure’ for a minimum of six weeks, leaving a gentle and caring bar of soap, delicate enough for even the most sensitive of skin.

Our Organic Goats Milk Soaps are luxuriously creamy and moisturising and packed full of vitamins and minerals that your skin will love!

For hundreds of years, it has been believed that goat’s milk has exceptional moisturising and healing properties. It is a similar ph level to human skin, and is naturally high in vitamins, minerals and alpha hydroxy acids, that nourish and rejuvenate. Goats milk soap works particularly well for sufferers of eczema, psoriasis, and dry skin problems. Of course, our soaps are also excellent on normal skin, and are just lovely to use.
