The Goat Milk Difference

So, what’s so special about goat milk anyway? It's all about its unique composition.

Goat milk boasts 34 essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and amino acids. Being rich in lactic acid, it gently exfoliates your skin, leaving it supple, velvety, and smooth. Furthermore, the pH level of goat milk closely mirrors that of your skin, making it a gentle ally for even the most sensitive complexions. Say hello to a smooth, calm complexion and goodbye dryness and irritation!
