A member asked:
If you're lactose intolerant, would skincare products with milk also be bad if placed on your skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Milk products are not absorbed from the skin into the digestive tract so you can use them on the skin if your are lactose intolerant. No fear of diarrhea from skin care products with milk or creme.
