Influencer Quenlin Blackwell Employs Breast Milk for Skincare — Dermatologist Weighs In on the Trend (Exclusive)

Model and influencer Quenlin Blackwell recently shared that she incorporates her sister’s breast milk into her skincare routine, claiming it as a top-tier skincare ingredient. Dermatologist Dr. Naana Boakye explains that while breast milk contains nutrients beneficial for soothing and hydrating the skin, such as proteins, vitamins, fatty acids, and growth factors, it may not suit everyone and could pose hygiene risks if not fresh. Dr. Boakye advises patch testing and suggests alternatives like colostrum-based products and creams with peptides and ceramides for those seeking similar benefits.
