Made In Scotland by Christine Ralph.

My soap is made on a Scottish croft with milk from happy goats. Made in Gamrie, Aberdeenshire, using milk from my small herd of goats and the best oils and butters that I could find, including Shea butter (now widely recognised as an excellent skin product) Olive oil, Coconut oil and Cocoa butter. I designed this soap for myself, having found commercial soaps too harsh on my skin. I do not add any fragrance or unnecessary chemicals, and each bar is handmade by myself. I hope that as well as enjoying looking at it you will use it and enjoy the silky soft lather for yourself.

There are no added fragrances or colours in my soap. The ingredients are: saponified goat’s milk (fresh whole milk – not powdered dried milk bought from a soap suppliers), saponified sweet almond oil, coconut oil, , olive oil, soya bean oil, cocoa butter, shea butter and castor oil. No water is used in the soap, I use milk in place of water.
People sometimes ask if the soap ‘goes off’, well I have kept bars in a dry, ventilated place for over 12 months and they are still doing fine—they shrink a little after about 6 months due to moisture evaporation so I now put a ‘use by’ date on the label to encourage people to use it! (don’t worry- you’ll be able to get some more) and remember, the goats featured inside the lids of the boxes are always changing—you can follow their lives and loves….
