We are always on the lookout for the next best thing, but the newest ingredient in skincare might be an old one revisited - camel milk. 

While it may not be found in many of today's products, for centuries, camel milk has been revered for its curative properties in both Africa and the Middle East. Even Queen Cleopatra is said to have bathed in Camel Milk to maintain her youthful appearance. 

And perhaps there's a reason that this super food is finding its way into our skincare routines. Camel Milk is packed with immune proteins, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals such as:

* Omega Fatty Acids 3, 6 & 9: Building blocks of healthy cell membranes; they create natural oil barrier keeping skin hydrated

* Natural Alpha Hydroxy Acids: Gentle exfoliation of our skin from dead cells

* Vitamins & Minerals: A high concentration of vitamins A, B, C, D & E are all naturally abundant in camel milk. They have repairing properties supporting natural skin rejuvenation

* Immune Proteins: High concentrations of unique Anti-Bacterial, Anti-Viral, Anti-Fungal, Anti-Microbial, Anti-Inflammatory and Immune Supporting Proteins

* Phospholipids: Naturally-occurring molecules that attract water and hold on to it. As a results phospholipids are a crucial component for keeping the skin hydrated.

We speak to Marc Green, the co-founder of Cammellatte – a camel-milk-based skincare line, about the benefits of camel milk and why he created a line around this healing ingredient.
