HANDCRAFTED GOAT MILK SOAP PRODUCT REVIEW

CRANBERRY RIDGE FARM

Luxury Goat Milk Soap

When Matt and Rhonda Shaul of Cranberry Ridge Farm offered me the opportunity to review several of their amazing goat milk soap bars I JUMPED at the chance!

They've been making their very special luxury soap bars for more than a decade, and they've crossed this great country doing it.  Read about their incredible farm journey on their website HERE.

My Review-

Jerry and I have used their soaps exclusively over the past 6 weeks. Jerry's favorite has been their bar- The Anvil's Ring (image above). Its scent is reminiscent of balsam and leather.  Our weather has been very cold and dry so far this winter.  Jerry loves the fragrance and tells me that the soap has comforted his dry skin and chapped hands.  He wants more as soon as possible.

I have a small herd of nigerian dwarf dairy goats.  Daily chores are very drying, especially at this time of year.  I have to use strong cleansers and disinfectants to prepare and clean up after milking. My hands often become dry,cracked, and sore in winter months from all the chemicals and frequent washings. 

I have enjoyed Cranberry Ridge Farm's Lavender, Lemongrass, and Lavender Patchouli bars. All three soaps have been very nourishing to my overworked skin.  I could see and feel a positive difference in my skin's texture and moisture in just about a week.  

My impression of their Lavender bar is that it has a very pleasant, lavender fragrance.  This bar is not too strongly scented, which is common for this scent.  It is attractive and would make a lovely gift.  It cleanses well and does not leave a film on your skin or in the shower as many of the handcrafted bars I have purchased have done.  

The Lavender Patchouli bar smells amazing.  It's musky with the calming lavender fragrance blended into it.  This fragrance is calming and relaxing.  I will definitely need more of this one too.

My FAVORITE so far is the Lemongrass bar.  The smell is so pure and invogorating.  It wakes me up and puts a smile on my face!  

There you have it.  I recommend these goat milk soaps. I send a BIG thank you to Matt and Rhonda Shaul of Cranberry Ridge Farm for giving me several bars to use and enjoy.
