Spring is springing, and so are a bunch of new baby goats, here on Dayspring Farm. Nothing makes it feel more like a fresh new season than seeing fresh little faces with all their energy. It's time to get out and enjoy fresh air, sun on our skin, and new life. Spring always seems to bring a small renewal in energy and health as well.
If you're looking to improve your skin's health (especially as warmer weather motivates most of us to bare our skin much more than in winter), using natural soaps free of harmful additives is a great place to start. While we know goat's milk adds a unique boost to skincare, never underestimate how much good it does to simply leave unnecessary, harmful ingredients OUT.
Dayspring Farm products will always be free of weird stuff like parabens, phthalates and sulfates. You'll find them in most cleansers on the grocery or drugstore shelf. Why? They're inexpensive petroleum products that extend shelf life and artificially add lather to soaps. But we don't think petroleum products belong on your skin. Indeed, it's been shown these are the very ingredients that exacerbate skin conditions like eczema, acne and dry skin.
So do your skin a favor and leave them out of your skincare regimen, while adding the benefits of goat's milk to repair skin damage and inflammation. Goat milk soothes and conditions, natural oils in our soap add back nutrients and moisturize, and we leave out all harsh additives that strip away moisture or cause irritation.
Finally, if your skin needs extra TLC, try our coconut oil-free soaps (Unscented and Honey Oatmeal). Coconut oil is a lovely natural fat for some skin, and adds beautiful lather to soap, but for some of us, it's too drying. That's why we offer two soaps that are free of coconut oil and fragrance - they're about the gentlest cleansers money can buy.
