  • The Freckled Farm Soap Company’s Goat Milk Soap – Castile

    The Freckled Farm Soap Company’s Goat Milk Soap – Castile

    The Freckled Farm Soap Company - Goat Milk Soap - Castile

    The Castile is one of our most popular soaps and the soap that I find myself suggesting most often. It’s fragrance and dye free, making it perfect for children and those with sensitive skin or skin conditions. In our household, and in many of the households of our customers, this soap is used for shaving. It’s sensitive enough for all of your shaving needs and has a thick silky lather. It has helped many of our customers who suffered from shaving rash after using other soaps and shaving creams.

  • Soap Tester Testimonials #4

    This week’s soap tester testimonial comes from Nikki W. She tested both the Orange Blossom Honey and Oatmeal and the Coffee soaps.

    I have used two soaps (oatmeal and coffee) and I really like them both. I really enjoy the way they smell, the oatmeal is very fresh smelling and the coffee just smells wonderful. I noticed they don’t leave a film behind on my skin, which is really nice. I also used them with my loofa and they lather up really good. The coffee one is a little rougher, like an exfoliant. I have really enjoyed using the soap – I’m glad to have the chance to test them

  • Soap Tester Testimonial #3

    It’s the third week of our soap tester testimonials! This week I am sharing a testimonial from Ashley C, who has used several of our soaps over the last few months…

    I have always been skeptical about goat milk soap, mostly because I didn’t know much about it. It just seemed really weird to me to bathe in milk. I never would have tried it if it weren’t for Crystal, who introduced me to the wonderful world of goat milk soap, and now I can’t live without it! I have never been able to find a good soap or shower wash that didn’t make my skin feel itchy or dry. The goat soap does just that. The only way I can describe it, without you actually trying it, is it feels like you are actually showering with moisturizer. The wonderful variety of scents of the soap is just an added bonus. I have extremely sensitive skin prone to breakouts and I have been using the soap on my face for a month and have noticeably seen a difference in the appearance of my skin and no breakouts! I use the soap for shaving as well and get no razor bumps, which I got every time I shaved whether it was with shaving cream or soap. I also use it on my 3 month old son because soap can really dry out babies skin. I’m so glad I tried the soap and I will be a customer for life!

  • Soap Tester Testimonial #2

    Last week I shared a testimonial from Sandy, one of our soap testers. This week I am sharing one from Dottie M…

    Jim and I signed up to test The Freckled Farm soaps because we are drawn to natural products and we love the farm’s owners and wanted to support them. I do have a science background and wondered if a natural soap could compete with the R and D resources of Proctor & Gamble, etc. From the first day we were both hooked. It’s hard to describe the difference. We felt very clean and moisturized. Other moisturizing soaps left a feeling of something on your skin. The dry, scaly look disappeared with one use and we didn’t feel covered in lotion. We loved the fragrance of the Sunrise Citrus soap. It’s clean and bright, a perfect morning shower experience! We have our order in, waiting for the first shipment.” – Dottie

  • Why You Should be Using Goat Milk Soap!

    If you haven’t used goat milk soap before then you might not be aware of it’s amazing benefits! Below I have put together a list of why you should be using goat milk soap… and more specifically why you should be using OUR goat milk soap.

    1. Soap made with goat milk is said to contain caprylic, capric and caproic acids. All of these work together to maintain the perfect pH (or acidity) for human skin and hair.
    2. Goat milk soap may help to reduce inflammation in skin.
    3. The cream in goat milk makes the soap highly moisturizing.
    4. It contains essential nutrients and vitamins like vitamin A, C, B1, B6, B12, and E. These nutrients and vitamins help repair damaged skin cells.
    5. Alpha-hydroxy acids can be found in goat milk. In soap these acids break down the bond in dead skin cells so they may be washed way, leaving behind smoother skin.
    6. Our soaps free of chemicals and only made with natural products; raw goat milk, oils, and essential oils for fragrances. We never use artificial dyes or fragrances.
    7. By purchasing our soap you are directly supporting a family and helping us achieve our dream of becoming self-sustaining.

  • Soap Tester Testimonial #1

    We have had soap testers (friends, family, and acquaintances) testing our soap for months now. We want to make sure our recipes are perfect before we roll them out to the general public. So far the feedback has been extremely positive. They are all fighting to get their hands on more soap, and several have taken the time to write up testimonials! Over the next few weeks, as we put the final touches on our website, I will share these testimonials with you. This first one comes from Sandy H.

    I have been using the Castile soap, and it is awesome. Before it was wet for the first time it had a slight scent to it, but in the shower there is absolutely no scent that I can make out. I went from using Dove body wash to this, and will NEVER go back to Dove again. My skin feels so much softer. Additionally, I have really sensitive arm pits – get red bumps/irriation all the time. Since using the soap for shaving – I have had ZERO red bumps or irritation. However, I was just on vacation for two weeks and forgot to pack the castile soap…and I got awful shaving irritation from using my mom’s body wash. I am back home and have been using the soap for 4 days now, and am feeling great. I thought I loved the soap, but didn’t realize how much I did until I had stopped using it! Such a great product! I hope the business will be up and running by Christmas, because I would love to get some soap for everyone as stocking stuffers!” – Sandy

  • My First Experience with Goat Milk Soap

    A while before we started experimenting making our own soap I had the opportunity to try goat milk soap from a national brand.  I already knew the benefits of goat milk soap and already had high expectations, but I was completely blown away with my results.

    I wash my hands to an obsessive point… I live on a farm with two young children, and I have a mild case of OCD. My hands were always dry and cracked, and during the winter my hands would bleed… badly. I would go through a gross amount of lotion. I was miserable. It actually HURT to wash my hands and put lotion on. Washing my hands less was/is not an option… dealing with animals, diapers, cooking, etc… It is a necessary act many, many, many times a day. So I just dealt with the pain. Then I had the opportunity to use a bar of goat milk soap. Within a DAY my hands had healed. I’m not exaggerating… a DAY. No more cracks, no more dry skin, no more bleeding. I was completely hooked and knew I couldn’t go back to regular soap.

    Since we started making our own soap I have had no more issues with my skin, no matter how many times I wash my hands. Our soaps are all natural and our castile is sensitive enough to use on our toddler (who has very sensitive skin). It’s amazing having a safe, all natural product for our family to use. I am so proud of our soaps and I can’t wait for you all to try them.

  • Our Very First Order!

    Today we hit a huge milestone at The Freckled Farm Soap Company… We fulfilled our very first order!!

     1st Order! Goat Milk Soap. The Freckled Farm Soap Company

    The website has not even gone live yet, but friends and family, the people who have been testing the soap for us all along, have been going crazy trying to get more now that their sample sizes have run out. Dottie and Jim couldn’t wait any longer, so we went ahead and took an order from them so they didn’t have to live without our Sunrise Citrus.

    The site is still a ways from being ready. We will have it live sometime in September, but a hardline date has not been set. We don’t want to launch it until everything is perfect. The Etsy shop will be up very soon though and orders can be placed there. If you just can’t wait contact me (crystal@thefreckledfarmsoapcompany.com) and we can work something out. Thank you for your patience and yay for milestones!

  • Getting to Know The Freckled Farm – Kevin

    Want to know more about the farmers, animals, and buildings on The Freckled Farm? Over the next few months I will introduce you to a different part of The Freckled Farm every Friday. This week you have a chance to get to know Kevin!

    Getting to Know The Freckled Farm - Kevin

    (Bryce is only 4 months old in this picture… Isn’t she precious? Who doesn’t love a chunky baby?)

    Kevin is the soap maker extraordinaire. We brainstorm together, but he is the one who researches how to make it happen. He designs soap recipes with care, considering what each oil does to improve the quality of the soap and how it affects the user’s skin. He is always searching for a way to make the soap better and is a true perfectionist.

    Kevin and I met while attending VCU School of the Arts. Our relationship has truly been a journey. He is a loving, supportive husband and father. He is my best friend, my partner, and my love. We are a great team and I am so glad we are going through this journey together.
