{"product_id":"donkey-milk-soap-bar","title":"Donkey Milk Soap Bar","description":"\u003cp\u003eDonkey milk has been a luxury skincare ingredient since antiquity — Cleopatra is the name attached to it, but the practice long outlived her, surviving on small farms around the Aegean that still keep a handful of animals for the milk alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is genuinely scarce. A donkey produces a fraction of what a goat does, which is why you rarely see it. It is also genuinely rich: vitamins A, B, C, D and E alongside naturally occurring proteins and fatty acids that soften skin rather than simply cleaning it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMilk proteins are fragile, and most soapmaking heats them until little of the original survives. Cold-processing avoids that entirely. What you get is a dense bar, a lather closer to whipped cream than to foam, and skin left silky instead of tight. Nothing is added for scent — what you can smell is the faint warmth of the milk itself against olive oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy you'll like it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeeply nourishing without feeling heavy or greasy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich in vitamins and naturally occurring milk proteins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnscented, so it won't compete with anything else you wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEspecially good on hands, forearms and anywhere skin has gone papery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDry, mature and sensitive skin.

Once or twice daily. It earns its place as the cleansing step of an evening routine, before a cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDonkey milk, olive oil, coconut oil, vegetable glycerin, sodium hydroxide, water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it's made\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCold-processed by hand in Anatolia and cured on wooden racks for several weeks. No heat is applied at any stage, which is what keeps the vitamins, antioxidants and aromatic compounds in the oils intact instead of cooking them away. Each bar is cut by hand from a poured block, so slight differences in size, shade and marbling are normal — that is the method showing, not a fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e100 g · Paraben-free · SLS-free · Never tested on animals\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMaking it last\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the bar on a draining dish and never leave it sitting in water.
