Colostrum Complex: The ingredient behind ByLykke
Colostrum Complex is ByLykke's signature ingredient, developed in collaboration with Aalborg University. Read about colostrum, and why we use it in our skincare.
Behind every ByLykke product is the same signature ingredient: Colostrum Complex. It is the heart of our skincare and the reason ByLykke came into being at all. In this article we explain what colostrum is, how Colostrum Complex came about, and why we chose exactly this ingredient.
What is colostrum?
Colostrum, also called first milk, is the very first milk that is produced after a birth, before the ordinary milk comes in. It is naturally rich in bioactive substances and contains more than 90 different nutrients. Colostrum is a well-known, natural raw material that humans have known and used for generations.
What is Colostrum Complex?
Colostrum Complex is ByLykke's own, refined version of colostrum, developed in a research collaboration with Aalborg University. First milk in its raw form cannot just be put in a bottle, it takes precision to make it usable in modern skincare. The result is a nourishing ingredient that we combine with organic oils in all our products.
Why we use Colostrum Complex
We chose Colostrum Complex because it fits our wish for skincare that is both nourishing and gentle on delicate skin:
- A natural, bioactive ingredient with many nutrients
- Part of fragrance-free products for delicate skin
- Combined with organic oils for a soft, nourishing texture
- Gives the skin moisture and a well-cared-for feel in everyday life
You will find Colostrum Complex in every single ByLykke product, from Colostrum Creme to Serum and Lotion.
