Yes, you can technically apply breast milk to your face, but keep in mind that scientific evidence doesn't support its effectiveness as a treatment. According to one source, while application is possible, acne, for example, often resolves on its own within a few weeks.
Here's a more detailed look:
- Is it Safe? Generally, breast milk is considered safe to use topically.
- Does it Work? The evidence supporting breast milk's benefits for skin conditions is limited. While it contains antibodies and nutrients, their impact on skin health when applied topically is not well-established. As the reference text says, acne typically clears up on its own.
Therefore, while applying breast milk to your face might be technically possible, its actual benefit is uncertain.
