He is a world champion, a world record holder and three-time Olympian (with medals from all three, including two gold). Milk is Michael’s latest triumph, here’s his story: “Australia’s climate is pretty harsh, and that coupled with hours in the pool, made looking after my skin tough. I couldn’t find a product that was right for me, so I made my own. It’s called Milk. A fresh, easy-to-use set of products, made using natural marine-based ingredients (such as brown seaweed and algae extracts). Personally researched, tested and created by me. Milk is about helping guys feel good about their skin and relaxed about taking care of it. I’ve really enjoyed developing it and I know you’ll enjoy using it”  MILK is a savvy and relaxed set of men’s skincare products, created with the highest quality marine-based ingredients, filling a gap in premium, yet affordable men’s skin care."
