Milk Made Skin – Where Breast Milk Meets Beauty & Science- Sarah struggled with infertility for 10+ years, Sarah had children in her late 30s and early 40s. After years of IVF treatments, hormonal changes and incredible stress, Sarah’s skin was unrecognizable; like so many women over 40 look in the mirror one day and notice that their skin has changed overnight! There is not one woman that is excluded from this transition. This is what happened to the Founder of Milk Made Skin. Dark circles, age spots and overall texture and luster was changing everyday. Knowing breast milk was packed with incredible ingredients including Vitamins, Minerals, Proteins, Lactose and Fatty Acids, Sarah started using her own breast milk on her skin to address her concerns. The results were incredible and immediate! ENTER…MILK MADE SKIN! Sarah knew she wanted to take science and get it the closest she could to nature and emulate breastmilk…leaving actual breastmilk and colostrum for all the babies that need it. That lead her to develop a milk peptide complex that fights the signs of aging, eczema and so much more. milkmadeskin.com
