DePrad's Skin Care

Goatmilk Soap w/Natural Shea Butter:

DePrad’s soaps are created and crafted by me using natural (untreated) ingredients such as fresh goatmilk, olive oil, herbs and essential oils. Goatmilk contains caprylic acid (low pH) that restores and moisturizes skin. Since it produces a very mild and gentle soap, the skin will maintain it’s natural balance and will be less susceptible to bacterial invasion. Olive oil is good moisturizing oil that attracts moisture to your skin without blocking your pores.

Glycerin is a by product that is retained in my soaps and beneficial to your skin. Most commercial soap companies remove the glycerin from the finished product, making the soap a harsh detergent that strips your skin of it’s natural oils, causing you to use moisturizers or lotions. Soap is made when fats are mixed with a caustic substance, such as lye. All soaps, including glycerin soap contain lye. Glycerin soaps are prepared with grain alcohol or vodka, sugar and other ingredients to help give that transparent look. Glycerin is obtained during saponification (heat, stirring and time). Saponification uses up the lye so it’s no longer dangerous to your skin. Once you’ve used DePrad’s handcrafted soap you’ll stop using commercial soaps and less moisturizers.

Shea Butter has Vitamin A and E, which balances and normalizes the skin. Vitamin A has soothing and hydrating properties. They provide healthy skin collagen which prevents premature wrinkles, premature facial lines and premature loosen skin. Vitamin F acts as a skin protector and revitalizer. It soothers rough, dry or chapped skin on contact and helps soften and revitalize dry or damage hair. Vitamin F consists of linolecic, linolenic and arachidonic acids, the three essential fatty acids.
I’m constantly looking for ingredients to help improve my products, to give you a sense of luxury at an affordable price. Since each batch is hand crafted, there will be some slight variations between bars. The weight will vary based on the oils and additives used in each particular batch. So try one or all of my soaps.

The Karite (magnolia) tree produces fruit once a year. The nuts are picked, roasted and hand pounded, once opened the nuts are boiled  for several hours to release the shea butter.
