Hmm!! Meet the Woman Who Uses Her Own Breast Milk to Make Soaps for People

Jasmine Overton, 37, from Queensland, Australia made bars of breast milk soap after her sister complained her excess milk was going to waste.The Mother of two who uses breast milk to make soap says word of mouth demand for the bars has led to her turning the hobby into a business.

The mother of two says she began making the soap after having a 'light-bulb' moment when hearing her sister complaining that she was over-producing milk while nursing her young baby. Her sister Chrystal, 30, began expressing her excess milk and passing it onto Jasmine so she could add it into her beauty products.

Jasmine mixes the milk with oils, then makes the mixture into bars of soap, which are said to help soften skin, as well as reducing redness, oiliness, acne, sensitivity and itchiness.

The product has been such a success that Jasmine has made personalised batches for her sister's friends and now hopes to launch her breast milk soap as a bespoke business.
