Before adopting the practice, Malo says she researched the use of breast milk on the skin and found reports of celebrities who had already incorporated the ingredient into their beauty routines, including Jodie Turner-Smith and Halsey. She says that discovering these examples fueled her curiosity and encouraged her to try the method. “I wanted to understand if it actually worked, and I noticed that many mothers talked about it naturally,” she says.
When detailing the routine, Malu explains that using breast milk becomes a daily self-care gesture. She claims to apply a few fresh drops directly to the face, usually in the morning, before other skincare products. “I put the milk on my skin while it is still cold, let it act for a few minutes and then continue with my normal routine,” he says. The influencer says she’s noticed an improvement in skin hydration and texture since incorporating the ritual into her daily life.
