Costumized: Breast milk soap

We all know how wonderful the breast milk is. Breast milk is nutritious and it helps improve the immune system of the baby. Mothers are encourage to breastfeed their kids if possible. However, what can you do with the extra breast milk?! Of course you can throw it, but you would feel it's a waste. Then how about using the breast milk into the soap?!

Breast milk soaps are getting lots of attentions and popularity in Asia as the soap is gentle for both parents and the babies. Even newborns, whose skins are more sensitive, can use the breast milk soaps. No essential oil or fragrant oil is added in the breast milk soap because babies will  be using the soaps. Some herbs powder  may be added and it's based on the request.

One more important thing, breast milk is personal not commercial. Using the soaps that are made from other mom's  breast milk is not wise. I do carefully handle the soaps and clearly make soaps with dates and other information. Please do not worry.

Last but not least, I'd like to thank my dear frien,who delivered a cute girl last September, for giving me her breast milk (waving HI to Yu-Ying). In her breast milk soaps, I added some Chinese herb powder, which has the function of calming the kids.
