Lemongrass & Bergamot Goat Milk Soap aromatherapy No.8 Walk With a Skip Blend

No.8 Walk With a Skip Goat Milk Soap is a bright, invigorating botanical blend created for the pleasure of a fresh start. Lemongrass, Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Rosemary essential oils give this handcrafted bar its lively citrus-herbal character, while Cedarwood adds a warm, grounding finish.

Inspired by the feeling of stepping outdoors into the fresh Ojai morning air, Walk With a Skip brings the sensory appeal of botanical aromatherapy into an everyday shower. Its crisp, green fragrance makes it especially inviting at the beginning of the day or whenever you want to feel refreshed after work, exercise, or time outdoors.

Behind the aroma is Bogue's traditional cold-process formula of fresh goat milk, more than twelve plant oils and butters, and botanical ingredients including parsley infusion and chlorophyll. The result is a creamy, conditioning soap that combines effective daily cleansing with a distinctive garden-fresh character.

Lemongrass, Bergamot & Grapefruit: A Bright Botanical Aromatherapy Blend

Walk With a Skip opens with the unmistakable citrus-green character of Lemongrass. Its fresh, aromatic profile is complemented by the softer citrus complexity of Bergamot and the sparkling brightness of Grapefruit.

Rosemary introduces an herbal note reminiscent of a sun-warmed garden, while Cedarwood provides a subtle woody foundation that keeps the composition balanced rather than overly sharp or sweet.

These essential oils create an invigorating sensory experience through fragrance. Rather than promising a physiological energy boost, Walk With a Skip is designed around the simple pleasure of a refreshing, aromatic shower.

Chlorophyll & Parsley Infusion: The Green Botanical Story

What distinguishes Walk With a Skip from a conventional citrus soap is its green botanical formulation.

Chlorophyll, the natural pigment associated with green plants, contributes to the soap's botanical identity and naturally inspired color. Chlorophyll and chlorophyll-derived ingredients have attracted skincare interest for their antioxidant properties, although the effects depend on the specific ingredient and formulation.

Parsley infusion adds another connection to the garden. Rather than relying solely on essential oils for its botanical character, Walk With a Skip incorporates an infused herb into the soapmaking process, reflecting Bogue's longstanding interest in working with plants in multiple forms.

Together, the green botanicals and citrus-herbal essential oils give this bar a fresh, garden-inspired identity that goes beyond fragrance alone.

Fresh Goat Milk & Plant Oils for Comfortable Daily Cleansing

A refreshing soap should leave skin feeling clean and comfortable, not unnecessarily tight or stripped.

Walk With a Skip is made with fresh goat milk and Bogue's carefully balanced foundation of more than twelve plant oils and butters. The fatty-acid composition of those oils helps determine the finished soap's cleansing ability, lather, firmness, and conditioning after-feel.

Traditional cold-process soapmaking also naturally produces glycerin, a valued humectant. Together, the goat milk, botanical oil foundation, and naturally formed glycerin contribute to a rich, creamy lather and a satisfying daily wash.

It's a formulation that complements the bright aromatics with thoughtful skincare, making Walk With a Skip a refreshing choice for the morning shower or everyday bathing.

A Fresh Start: Botanical Shower Rituals & Everyday Wellbeing

One of the pleasures of a morning shower is the opportunity to begin again. Warm water, a favorite fragrance, and a few unhurried minutes can make an ordinary daily routine feel more intentional.

Walk With a Skip fits naturally into this simpler approach to personal care. Its lively Lemongrass and Grapefruit notes feel bright and refreshing, while Bergamot, Rosemary, and Cedarwood give the aroma depth and botanical sophistication.

For anyone drawn to garden-inspired skincare, citrus aromatherapy, or a streamlined bathing routine, the appeal is straightforward: one thoughtfully formulated soap that cleanses comfortably and makes the shower more enjoyable.

Small-Batch Cold-Process Soapmaking in Ojai

Walk With a Skip is handcrafted in small batches in Ojai, California, continuing Bogue's third-generation family soapmaking tradition established in 1973.

Our approach combines fresh goat milk, carefully selected plant oils and butters, herbal infusions, and pure essential oils. Each batch is made using traditional cold-process methods and given time to cure, allowing the bar to develop the firmness and lasting character expected of handmade soap.

The result is an uplifting botanical blend grounded in real soapmaking craft, not simply a citrus fragrance added to an ordinary cleansing bar.
