La Base Lait Labs Breastmilk Skincare Kit

There's nothing gentler on your baby's skin than something made by you. The Lait Labs Kit from La Base turns your own expressed breastmilk into a rich, soothing cream that's nearly 50% breastmilk, blended with a short list of natural ingredients you can actually pronounce.

Everything you need comes in the box, with a step-by-step booklet and how-to video, and making your cream at home takes around 30 to 40 minutes. One kit makes 300ml of cream that keeps for up to 5 months, ready for nappy rashes, dry patches and delicate skin. Plenty of parents end up using it themselves too, for dry heels and chafing.

A thoughtful, one-of-a-kind gift for an expecting or breastfeeding mum, and a genuinely fun little kitchen project.
