Honey Oatmeal Goat’s Milk Soap
I wanted to create a soothing soap to soften and brighten skin. I immediately thought of including two breakfast staples: honey and oatmeal. Together with a goat’s milk melt and pour soap base, they create a beautiful soap that does both.

Honey is moisturizing and makes skin “glow”. It’s been used in many skin care recipes because of the multitude of benefits it offers. I liked that it was already in my pantry and I didn’t have to hunt it down online like I do with some ingredients. My daughter eats honey on her toast for breakfast so it’s something we always have on hand.
Oatmeal is great for sensitive skin and has anti-inflammatory properties. I remember my sister suffering from eczema and my mom giving her an oatmeal bath.

Made this afternoon I’m hoeing it works out so you know I live in Ontario too although my husband finds it doesn’t suds up like regular soaps
Going to try making this with my 12-year-old this weekend but, just curious … why not mix the honey in before pouring into the soap molds?
You could do it that way too!
What kind of oats do you use for this? Could I use oats that you would make oatmeal with? Haha.
I used the large flake oats! Any kind should be ok though. Use whatever you have.
How many bars of soap will this recipe mak?
It makes about 4 bars.
Do you have a cure time for this soap? Also how long will it last if made ahead of time?
I use melt and pour base so it takes about an hour to harden up. It keeps for a month or two.
I am a handmade soap junkie but I’ve never made it myself. This looks very doable! I’d love it if you shared it at my Friday Favorites Link Party at http://condoblues.com
This must feel great on the skin! Makes a nice homemade gift!
One of these days I am going to try making soap. This one sounds nice 🙂
Your soaps are lovely! It looks like soap making is doable. I’ve always been curious about the process. Thank you for sharing!

Soap making has been on my want-to-do list for awhile now. This soap look gorgeous and your very simple to follow. I’m going to have to give it a try! Thanks for sharing!
Thank You for the recipe. I have been making my own face cream,Body cream,deodorant and scrubs. This soap will be the next one.
Omg, I love this recipe so so much!! It’s so easy, yet I can totally see how it would be incredibly moisturizing and gentle for the skin. My son has a little patch of eczema, and last night I gave him a bath with breastmilk mixed in. I wonder how it would turn out if I replaced the goat’s milk with breastmilk. Hmmmm? Thanks so much for sharing!! <3
Such an easy recipe, thanks for sharing.
I have always wanted to try making soap and this looks to be an easy recipe for it. This soap looks so clean and nice.
That looks like a great soap recipe. Does the honey melt into the soap or stay on the top?
It melts in.
