No, we are not stopping production of a product, we are simply going to re-name and describe it better!
When I began the Annie’s Goat Hill Handcrafted Soap journey I was a a soap-maker, one that only wanted to make soap. It was my passion. Period.
After a few months of initial soap sales we decided to purchase a goat milk lotion base. We were not happy with it. Our thoughts, lotion manufacturing would be too difficult. Well, we were wrong. It was not easy, but it was not impossible either. We did end up changing our original simple lotion formula a number of times (at last count, 8).
The final formula change included adding nourishing ingredients like jojoba oil, aloe vera and raw shea butter. It was divine. But, as hard as we tried, there was no thinning the end product down to a lotion consistency. The lotion seemed to have a mind of it’s own, and now, we feel it was stubborn for a reason.
To make a long story short, we are updating our goat milk lotion description to what it really is, goat milk body cream.
It is thick, creamy, and loaded with whole ingredients that make it beautiful.
So, there’s the rest of our story…see you next time!

Awesome! Sounds more refreshing!
Cream is richer than lotion, which describes our product to a “t.”
Sounds good!

I just wanted to say you are an inspiration to the ones who have no clue what they are doing, being a new soap maker. I want to dabble in soap making and lotions. I raise dairy goats, therefore I have the milk base out my backdoor. People are begging me to make soap, I’m just scared. I find all kinds of recipes but which one to use?? I’m confused on the measurements and ingredients. How did you get started? I love in a remote area and the folks here could use this specialty and I want to be the one to inspire HELP!!!!!!!!
Christine, it was a gradual process. We reformulated a minimum of 8 times before we settled on the goat milk cream recipe that we follow now. We started with a basic lotion recipe that we found online, a very simple one, and researched from there (purchased e-books, read online, library books). Years and years of studying. I will be offering consulting services and an e-book soon. When I do, you will be one that I can help outside of the the normal blog comments.
