Colostrum

AllowedReviewed September 18, 2026

Bovine Colostrum

The first milk produced after birth, rich in growth factors and immunoglobulins.

What it does: Actives & treatment
Our take: Trendy, animal-derived, and thin on published topical evidence, most of the research is on oral supplementation. We stock it and we're not going to overclaim for it. Not vegan.
Suitable from: Middle aged, 40+
Best for: Barrier repair · Aging & firmness
Skin types: Dry · Sensitive
