How To Make Goat Milk Lotion Recipe Soft and Luxurious

This Goat milk lotion recipe is so good for you because goat’s milk itself has healing properties! It is my own recipe that I love though some find it a tad bit oily until the coconut and almond oil soak into your skin.

Because as we all know, I’m not a patient or particularly detail-oriented person, these ingredients go together smoothly. This is also a pretty thick lotion and could be used as a goat milk body butter recipe.

Goat Milk Lotion Recipe

• 2 oz bees wax/emulsifying wax (I have found that emulsifying wax works better than bees wax)
• 1/2 oz cocoa butter
• 1 1/2 oz palm kernel oil
• 8 oz coconut oil
• 8 tbs almond oil
• 1 cup goat’s milk
• Add 1 1/2 cup distilled water
• 1 tbs Germaben II

Directions:

Mix the first five ingredients in a glass bowl, microwave or heat over the stove till melted, whisk in the water and goat’s milk until the whole emulsion cools. Then, I like to mix this together over an ice bath with a whisk. Don’t forget to add the Germaben II once it has become lotion. Store in glass jar in fridge. If the lotion is too thick you can add more water to thin it out. I’ve also had success with re heating the lotion and mixing again to get it to stay emulsified, even adding more emulsifying wax if the lotion starts to separate.

One thing I always have to remind myself of when I first mix the oils and liquids together, is that the milk is not curdling. It is becoming lotion as it has kind of a strange look in the beginning. Keep mixing, it will turn to lotion.
