Colostrum & SPF = ☺️
Did you know that sun damage isn’t always visible? Dark spots, fine lines, dullness, they all start beneath the surface. This is why protecting our skin goes way beyond SPF. Enter Colostrum! More than just a supplement, it’s fuel for the whole body, even the skin.
Psst, here to offer you a solution!
We talk a lot about colostrum being rich in bioactive nutrients - and these are the superstar players when it comes to multiple aspects of health. Including our skin. This is why the quality of your colostrum matters! At WonderCow, we never skim our colostrum, which keeps it whole and complete with all nutrients.
Full-spectrum Colostrum Paired with Broad Spectrum Support
When colostrum upholds its nutrients, it can function as nature intended, yielding more impactful health benefits. This way, we get a full-spectrum product that supports our bodies from the inside out.
Because what we put in our body shows up on the outside! We are here to help you nourish and protect your skin at the source.

6 Ways Colostrum Protects Your Skin
1. Rich in antioxidants
Lactoferrin, vitamin C, and vitamin E, found in colostrum help fight off free radicals from UV rays that cause premature aging and oxidative stress.
2. Boosts collagen and repairs skin
Growth factors (like IGF-1 and EGF) help your skin bounce back from inflammation, peeling, and dryness.
3. Protects and hydrates skin barrier
We add hyaluronic acid to our WonderGlow capsules, which binds to water hydrating the skin and repairing wounds and marks on the skin.
4. Soothes sun-triggered irritation
From the inside out: Think of colostrum as your inner after-sun lotion.
5. Strengthens skin barrier
Colostrum helps your skin barrier become more resilient and less reactive to everyday sun exposure.
6. May reduce UV sensitivity
This is especially helpful if your skin tends to flare up with conditions like eczema or rosacea.
Sunscreen is essential, but what about giving your skin more?
Colostrum offers internal benefits that no topical cream or serum can match. Taking colostrum daily gives you and your family the extra dose of regular defense you need, with benefits spanning across gut health, immune support, skincare, and more.
Your summer lineup:
Sunshine & Colostrum
This summer we hope you are playing outside, swimming, chasing kids, taking pictures, and consuming way too much fruit. (We know we’ll be doing all those things!) Summer is meant for FUN and SUN, keeping sunburns ideally at a minimum. As you pack up your bag for wherever the water calls you, grab your SPF and colostrum and make those memories!
3 Daily Musts for Healthier Skin in the Sun
1. Always wear broad-spectrum SPF, even indoors.
2. Don’t forget your hat (we have one you can rock) and sunglasses.
3. Take your colostrum daily for deep, invisible support.
In every season, there’s an added benefit to taking colostrum. Summertime means more play with friends but it can also bring along allergies and sunburns. Adding colostrum to your family’s routine gives your skin and overall health the boost it needs to power every moment of play, big or small. The best part? It’s easy (and delicious when you choose a flavor)!

This summer, do more than protect your skin. Nourish it.
