This milk, also known as the "white gold of cosmetics", has stood the test of time, and is still used today in natural cosmetics with incomparable benefits. Donkey's milk, similar to maternal milk, is rich in vitamins and low in fat. It is ideal for deeply nourishing and intensely moisturizing the skin. Its unctuous, delicate and pleasant texture allows you to enjoy supple, soft skin every day, whatever your skin type.

Used daily, this beauty partner naturally soothes sensitive skin and ensures optimum tolerance. Donkey milk is hypoallergenic and effectively combats the risk of unpleasant reactions such as acne, eczema or psoriasis. You'll enjoy an even complexion without redness or tightness.
