Goat Milk

Goat milk is a natural ingredient derived from goat's milk, used in skincare primarily for its hydrating and conditioning properties. It contains natural proteins, fats and lactose, which work together to draw moisture into the skin and support its natural moisture barrier.In cosmetic formulations, goat milk functions as a skin conditioner, helping to soften and improve the texture of the skin. It is used in a small proportion of skincare products, typically at low concentrations.

Goat milk contains lactose (a natural humectant) and proteins that draw water from the air and deeper skin layers into the outer layers, helping to plump and hydrate the skin. The milk fats also coat the skin's surface, reducing water loss and supporting a healthy barrier function.

Goat milk is typically found in cleansers, moisturisers and serums. It is generally gentle and can be incorporated into daily routines as part of a hydrating product. Patch test first if you have known sensitivity to dairy products, as allergic reactions are possible.

Goat milk is generally well-tolerated, but allergic reactions have been documented in sensitive individuals. Goat milk allergy can occur independently of cow's milk allergy. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional if you experience signs of allergy such as itching, redness or urticaria.
