WHY CAMELIFE?

We’re often asked how we ended up forming a company to develop camel milk skincare products.  Well,  CameLife is the first brand to be launched by The Australian Camel Milk Company, founded in early 2017 by Dr Jane Rose and Richard Williams.

So why camel milk skincare?  Well Jane is a vets and went to Israel to research camel dairying and husbandry. She wanted to develop her professional knowledge of camels and to write a definitive reference book on camel husbandry.

Whilst in Israel, they met some truly innovative scientists and product developers who were working on a range of complementary treatments, skincare products  and cosmetics using camel milk as a raw ingredient. Despite being experienced professionals, Jane was simply amazed by some of what they saw.

From that beginning, The Australian Camel Milk Company was conceived, developing an ambitious vision to create an ethical eco-system of camel dairying, scientific research, product development and manufacture using Australia’s bountiful supply of feral camels.

But we are a start up and need to walk before we can run.  So we started by bringing a range of high-quality cosmetic and skincare products to the Australian market, all based on camel milk.
