Find out in this article how to incorporate donkey milk into your body care routine for healthy, radiant skin. 

A little history... 😊

Donkey's milk has a long history of use, dating back to antiquity. Cleopatra, the famous Queen of Egypt, took donkey milk baths to preserve the youth and beauty of her skin. The Romans, meanwhile, used this milk for its therapeutic and nourishing properties. This historical legacy bears witness to the efficacy and benefits of this natural product, which continues to seduce beauty and well-being enthusiasts down the ages.

The benefits of donkey milk for the skin

Donkey milk is rich in vitamins (A, B1, B2, B6, D, E), minerals (calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc) and essential fatty acids. These components give it moisturizing, regenerating and anti-aging properties, ideal for the skin. 

Here's how to make the most of it: 

Donkey milk soap is particularly mild and moisturizing, ideal for sensitive, dry or irritated skin. To meet all your needs, we offer two types of soap: one specially formulated for the face, the other for the body and hands.

Donkey milk face soap gently cleanses your skin while respecting its natural balance. Use it morning and night to purify your face without drying it out. It leaves skin clean, soft and nourished, ready to receive your daily skin care products.

Donkey milk hand and body soap provides deep hydration and incomparable softness. Use it daily in the shower to cleanse your body. It leaves skin clean, soft and moisturized.



Our advice: for optimum effect, massage the soap into wet skin in circular movements before rinsing thoroughly. You can also apply a thin layer of soap foam to the face like a mask. Wait 10 minutes for the beneficial ingredients to take effect, then rinse off with lukewarm water. This occasional treatment provides deep moisturizing and soothing care for your skin.

For lovers of beautiful scents, we offer a range of donkey milk soaps enriched with natural, delicate fragrances.

Donkey milk moisturizing cream helps maintain skin hydration, improve elasticity and reduce signs of aging.

Our advice: apply morning and night to clean, dry skin. Concentrate particularly on the face and neck, avoiding the eye contour area. Gently massage until completely absorbed, so that the cream effectively penetrates the skin, leaving it soft, nourished and revitalized. 

Donkey milk body lotion is light but effective at moisturizing and soothing the skin, ideal for daily use.

Our advice: after a shower or bath, apply the lotion to slightly damp skin to optimize absorption. Use gentle, circular movements to massage the product into the skin.

Our tip: add a few spoonfuls of bath salt to hot water to create a soothing bath that deeply moisturizes the skin, relieves muscular tension and calms the mind.
