Goat Milk Soap Lust

I have a confession...

I'm suffering from goat milk soap lust.

This Goat Milk Stuff to be exact.

Isn't it pretty!?!

I need it...

Last year I made my own laundry soap (with Zote, not goat milk soap) and loved how chemical free it was. But I make liquid soap and the soap in the extra bottle got a little... solid over time. I went back to the lovely chemical loaded stuff that I've always used and haven't thought much about it. But this summer, Liam finally had a conclusive allergy test that made me start thinking again. Liam is allergic to cats. Really really allergic. But while we are living at my parents, he'll be living on Zyrtec. He is also highly allergic to all molds, dust mites and dust. That I can do something about! While I've been reading about natural ways to deter mites and mold, tea tree oil has popped up quite a bit. But I can't just throw a little tea tree oil into the laundry, that only solves one of our problems. Donnelly also has eczema. Every kind of soap irritates it! After trying several different 'remedies', I found that only taking one bath a week helps a lot. But she's getting bigger, dirtier and now she's potty training... bathing is becoming more... necessary!

Lucky for me (and not the nasty dust mites!) I was directed to Goat Milk Stuff while reading a 'clean' cleaning post on Mckmama's blog. I ventured to the site and again found tea tree oil. After a little reading I found that tea tree oil is great for eczema! And so is goat milk soap! Hallelujah! I found a great laundry bar soap that I can use to make my own laundry detergent with tea tree oil. Now maybe I can have an itchy-less little girl and a wheezy-less little boy! Plus, it's awesome for the whole family, the environment and it comes from a small family farm! What more could you ask for?

I can't wait to order it and start making my own laundry soap!
