Goat milk lip balm is a natural product that has become increasingly popular in recent years. Made with nourishing goat milk and other natural ingredients, it offers several benefits for your lips.
Main benefits of using goat milk lip balm
Hydrates and moisturizes lips: Goat milk is rich in fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals that can help to hydrate and moisturize your lips. It penetrates deeply into the skin, providing long-lasting hydration and preventing dryness and cracking.
Soothes and heals dry, chapped lips: Goat milk lip balm contains natural emollients that can help to soothe and heal dry, chapped lips. It can help to restore your lips’ natural moisture barrier, reducing redness and irritation.
Provides natural protection from the sun: Some goat milk lip balms contain natural sun protection ingredients like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, which can provide a gentle, natural shield from harmful UV rays. This can help to prevent sun damage, which can lead to premature aging, wrinkles, and other skin problems.
Promotes healthy, youthful-looking lips: Goat milk lip balm is rich in antioxidants and other nutrients that can help to nourish and protect your lips from environmental damage. It can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, leaving your lips looking healthy and youthful.
All-natural and gentle: Many commercial lip balms contain synthetic fragrances, flavors, and other chemicals that can irritate or dry out your lips. Goat milk lip balm is all-natural and gentle, making it a great option for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
As we have mentioned, tt can help to hydrate, soothe, and protect your lips, promoting healthy, youthful-looking skin. With its all-natural ingredients and gentle formula, it’s a great option for those looking for a more natural alternative to traditional lip balms.
How to make this recipe
Start by using a double boiler to melt down the shea butter and beeswax. Once the solids are melted stir in the remaining oils and then the goat’s milk powder. Whisk well to break down any lumps from the goats milks.
This recipe will yield around 20 Small lip balm chapstick pots.
Once cooled pour into a small container and enjoy!!
Precautions
Ensure all containers are sterile by boiling them to prevent contamination of your lip balm or chapstick.
If you wish to dye this balm you can use a cosmetic coloring available from homemade body product supply stores. You can also use a small amount of store-bought lipstick to tint the balm.
Alternatively, you can also use colored beeswax or candle dye as it is being used in such a small quantity it will not stain or harm your skin.
The PH Level in goat’s milk is super skin-friendly and the lactic acid helps remove dead skin cells from your lips for a soft and brighter smile. The ingredients are so basic for making this lip balm you will be surprised! You may even have the chapstick ingredients in your fridge or pantry.

I have fresh goat milk. If I dehydrate it can I use it as a powder or do I still need a preservative??
Did anyone successfully use Raw Goats make to make lip balm. IF so what preservative did you use.
Can you add a few drops of essential oil ?
How much fresh milk did you use?
You could add non nano zinc.
I have used fresh pasteurized goats milk and it comes out great but after about 4 weeks it starts to mold. I didn’t use any preservatives.
Did you make it with regular goat milk yet. I have fresh goat milk not dehydrated goat milk
This is a great recipe. Does anyone know if there is any sunscreen in it and if not, is there a way to add something to make it spf?
I am trying this recipe now. I dehydrated my pasteurized goat milk then used coffee grinder to make powder. I make goat milk lotion and use phenonip as my preservative. I use a hand wand to mix the milk with the oils. It works well. I will try using liquid goat milk next. Since you can use liquid Goat Milk to make solid soap, I would assume as long as you have a preservative it will work. We will see
Did you ever get to try the regular fresh goat’s milk for lip balm. I have been reading post 4 weeks that everybody says you have to use dehydrated goat’s milk ,I milk My Goats everyday so I only have fresh.
Hello Heide. Did you make the lip balm using fresh goats milk yet? Did it work? How do you feel about the product? Thanks!
Where do you buy organic goat milk
I like the reading of that.
Hi how would you get the beeswax and the goats milk to not seperate? Also where can I find vitamin e?
How much Tocopherol do you use if you use regular goats milk? Also what’s the apricot oil for? Taste? Smell?
This is wonderful and creamy but the grittiness is disappointing though temporary. I wonder if it should heat longer to get rid of that. Anyone have any ideas because other than that it’s wonderful.
The grit is from the Shea butter. I always melt everything down and then add the shea butter last. It makes the texture NON- gritty. The less it’s heated the less gritty.
ebay and other soap, lotion making online stores.
If you use liquid milk, you do need a preservative. Shea butter can be purchased at craft stores with the soap making supplies, or at online soap supply stores.
How much preservative is used? I think there are calculators maybe?
I am sure that I did something wrong, but I couldn’t get the milk to break down completely, no matter how much I whipped it. It also separated very easily until it was almost set. Like the way it works, but mine is slightly “gritty” until it has been on a few mins.
I would like to know how long this recipe will last, because I am using real goats milk not the powdered kind. Would it help to use a perservitive and what kind could I use?
Powdered Goat’s Milk is also REAL goat’s milk. It is the same concept of powdered milk. You will need a preservative since you are using the regular goat’s milk. Tocopherol (Vitamin E) is a good preservative as probably the least harsh.
@alyciastone123: Tocopherol (Vitamin E) is NOT A PRESERVATIVE!! it is an ANTIOXIDENT which only extends the shelf life of oils. It does not fight or prevent the growth of bacteria which may be produced from fresh Goat’s Milk. You really should have your recipe challenge tested to ensure that it is safe before offering the resulting products for sale in a retail setting. You will need to use a lip safe preservative in this product if you are using fresh Goat’s milk.
what would be a lip safe preservative?
so if you use powdered goat milk, is a preservative being used or needed? I wonder how the powdered milk is made, just out of curiosity.
I want to try this.
Where do you find shea butter?
Hi, I purchased some from Bramble Berry (www.brambleberry.com). I bought 16oz. for $6.90 they sell different amounts also.
