California's Donor Milk Law Creates Need for More Milk Donors as Demand Surges 30%

The Mothers' Milk Bank

Six months after California's groundbreaking Assembly Bill 3059 expanded insurance coverage and hospital access to life-saving donor milk, Mothers’ Milk Bank California is facing a 30% surge in demand, leaving vulnerable newborns at risk of going without this essential nutrition. Mothers’ Milk Bank California is urging eligible nursing mothers to donate and help meet the growing needs of medically fragile newborns across the state. AB3059, also known as the Human Milk Bill, mandates commercial insurance coverage for medically necessary pasteurized donor human milk, treating it as an essential health benefit. It also clarifies that hospitals do not need a tissue bank license to distribute milk from a licensed tissue bank, eliminating a key barrier to access. While this legislation represents a tremendous victory for vulnerable infants and their families by making life-saving donor milk more accessible and affordable, it has created an unprecedented surge in demand that is straining the current supply. The expanded insurance coverage means more families can now access donor milk for their medically fragile babies, but the donor base has not kept pace with the new surge in demand for human milk. Without additional donors, wait times for families may increase, and some infants who desperately need donor milk may face delays in receiving this vital nutrition. The success of AB3059 depends not only on policy change but on community action. Eligible mothers can help bridge this supply gap to try to ensure every baby who needs donor milk can receive it without delay. “This is a breakthrough in equitable neonatal care,” said Jennifer Benito, CEO of Mothers’ Milk Bank California. “But we need the public’s help to meet the rising demand to try to ensure that every baby receives this lifesaving nourishment.” In 2023, California recorded over 36,000 preterm births, and many of these fragile infants relied on donor milk to thrive. Now, use of donor milk is increasing not only in NICUs but also in Well Baby and Postpartum units, where emerging research shows it may reduce feeding complications, support gut health, and lower the risk of hospital readmissions, even for full-term newborns. “We’ve normalized blood donation as a vital act of generosity. It’s time we do the same for breast milk,” said Benito. “Because of AB3059, Mothers’ Milk Bank California is seeing a dramatic 30% increase in demand for donor milk—a spike we believe is directly tied to expanded insurance coverage and the removal of the tissue bank license requirement for hospitals. Every ounce donated can mean the difference between stability and struggle for a newborn.” New Ways to Donate: Easier Than Ever To meet this moment, Mothers’ Milk Bank California is expanding access and support for donors with multiple convenient options: Saturday Donor Screening Appointments Now Available To better support busy families, Mothers’ Milk Bank California now offers virtual donor screenings on Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

Dawn Maloney

Dawn Maloney, renowned professional makeup artist and educator, is proud to announce the release of her groundbreaking book, THE MAKEUP ARTIST’S DESIGN BOOK. This comprehensive guide introduces an innovative anatomical makeup technique that categorizes and identifies facial features based on shape patterns. With this new approach, makeup artists and beauty enthusiasts will learn how to tailor their makeup techniques to individual face structures, achieving symmetry and balance like never before. Have you ever tried to replicate a makeup look seen in a social media tutorial, only to be disappointed by the unflattering result? The reason often lies in facial anatomy—what works for one person may not work for you. THE MAKEUP ARTIST’S DESIGN BOOK solves this problem by helping readers understand their unique facial structure and how to enhance it with precision. Based on Dawn Maloney’s extensive experience as a national television makeup artist and educator, this book reveals a cutting-edge, patent-pending anatomical makeup methodology. Dawn’s career working with diverse faces on popular 90s TV talk shows like The Maury Povich Show and The Sally Jesse Raphael Show honed her ability to quickly assess and work with individuals from all walks of life, each with different anatomical facial features. Through this, she began identifying consistent anatomical patterns that require specific application techniques to achieve natural-looking symmetry. THE MAKEUP ARTIST’S DESIGN BOOK offers an in-depth exploration of 32 eye shapes, 36 lip shapes, and 50 face shapes, resulting in a staggering 57,600 possible combinations. Through hand-drawn illustrations and detailed descriptions, readers can easily identify their unique features and learn the best makeup techniques to enhance their natural beauty. Dawn explains, “I am deeply passionate about making each person feel and look their best. I started tracking face shape patterns to ensure flawless symmetry through natural-looking makeup. My technique is rooted in understanding facial proportions and working with them—not just chasing the latest makeup trends. Once you can identify facial shapes, you’ll be able to master makeup techniques that deliver consistent, beautiful results on anyone.” In addition to the comprehensive facial shape identification system, the book includes expert makeup application directions with product recommendations, and 50 face-coloring charts, providing readers with the tools they need to practice and perfect their skills. This makes THE MAKEUP ARTIST’S DESIGN BOOK the ideal resource for makeup artists, professionals in the face aesthetics industry, and beauty enthusiasts looking to deepen their understanding of makeup application. This revolutionary manual represents the most detailed and scientifically informed approach to makeup artistry today, combining years of meticulous study and observation to create a truly unique resource.

Senator Dave Cortese and Mothers’ Milk Bank California Announce Senate Resolution 20 Designating May as First-Ever California Human Milk Donation Month

The Mothers' Milk Bank

Senator Dave Cortese (District 15) and Mothers’ Milk Bank California announce State Resolution 20 to mark the official designation of May as the first-ever California Human Milk Donation Month to underscore the critical role of donor human milk in improving infant health outcomes and highlight the urgent need for increased access to this life-saving resource. A May 1 Senate floor session in Sacramento will announce this landmark resolution authored by Senators Dave Cortese and Senator Aisha Wahab with co-authors Senators Alvarado-Gil, Ashby, Blakespear, Caballero, Gonzalez, Hurtado, Limón, Pérez, Rubio, and Umberg. The designation of May as the first-ever California Human Milk Donation Month coincides with the release of The State of Human Milk Banking in California: a comprehensive report that provides critical insights into milk donation trends and statistics, the growing demand for pasteurized donor human milk (PDHM), and the evolving landscape of infant nutrition in California. With a growing demand for donor milk across the state, this call for additional donors will help meet the growing need for donor breast milk and expand access to human milk’s life-saving benefits for every premature and medically fragile infant that needs it. "Demand for pasteurized donor human milk (PDHM) has increased worldwide, for both medically fragile infants in the NICU and those that still need support after a NICU discharge. Mothers Milk Bank California distributes PDHM to 60% of NICUs in California and elsewhere and has seen a 30% increase in demand for PDHM in the last year. Designating May as the first-ever California Human Milk Donation Month is designed to raise awareness about the life-saving power of donor human milk," said Jennifer Benito-Kowalski, CEO of Mothers’ Milk Bank California. "Every ounce can save a baby’s life. Only 2% of eligible donors in California are donating breast milk and 1 in 11 babies is born preterm and may need this resource. Let’s help ensure everyone knows how to donate this liquid gold.” “All infants should have access to the benefits of breast milk, one of the most cost-effective ways to improve overall public health. The unique properties of breast milk make it incredibly powerful in preventing the onset of serious diseases like Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) which can be deadly to preterm babies," said Senator Dave Cortese. "Donor recruitment is critical. In California, up to 99% of very preterm or very low birthweight babies use PDHM in the NICU. Yet the current donor pool meets under 75% of the increased demand,” said Senator Dave Cortese of District 15. Preterm or premature infants are the priority population in need of donor human milk. There are many reasons that an infant’s mother’s milk may be unavailable, including absence of the birth mother, the mother having certain diseases that can be transmitted to the baby, the mother requiring medications that may make breastfeeding unsafe, premature birth requiring hospitalization of the infant in the NICU, and lactation difficulties. Prospective donors undergo medical screening to determine their eligibility and health status. Once approved, their donated milk is pasteurized to eliminate pathogens while preserving its nutritional value, and then sent to public health for testing, The pasteurized milk is distributed to hospitals and individuals in a safe and regulated manner. UC Health Milk Bank, AANHPI Lactation Collaborative, California Breastfeeding Coalition, California WIC Association, Community Bridges WIC, Denise Chapel Nutritional Services, Human Milk Connection, Nourishing Justly, Pretty Mama Breastfeeding LLC, Raíces y Cariño, Sacramento Breastfeeding Coalition, Santa Cruz County Breastfeeding Coalition, Solano County Breastfeeding Coalition and Watsonville Hospital will join the public awareness campaign to shine a light on how human milk saves lives.

LOVER® Cosmetics Demo’s Simple Beauty in 5-Steps on NewBeauty’s TalkShopLive® Channel

LOVER COSMETICS

LOVER® Cosmetics founder Ashley Maurin Rodden demos the makeup line’s 5-step, simple-beauty makeup regime and magnetic palettes on NewBeauty Magazine’s TalkShop Live channel Tuesday, March 4 at 6:00 p.m. eastern. “After doing hundreds of makeovers, women kept repeating the same two complaints, ‘I don’t know how to do my makeup’, and ‘I don’t have time’. Our 5-step makeup regime and guide show women HOW to do their makeup and our 5-step palettes help women do their makeup fast,” said Rodden. LOVER Cosmetics placed first runner-up in Sept. at MakeupIn’s New York Beauty Tank Competition for its best-selling 5-step palettes and makeup classes. The line also serves as the makeup provider for the New York City Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, producing more than 1300 makeup kits for dancers and cheerleaders nationwide. The everyday woman can learn how to simplify her makeup routine, travel and touch ups from the safety of her own powder room on Tuesday. Paris-trained makeup artist Ashley Maurin Rodden is offering a quick, 5-step demo on TalkShopLive. Each palette also has a QR code on the bottom that takes women to a 5-step video. Palettes range from the smokey palette, to a very wearable nude shimmer palette, and the line’s best-selling matte palette that caters to a more mature client. “The four palettes are the colors that are most purchased and put together year after year in my studio. And, they are multifunctional! The taupe color in each is a double for a brow filler, the light shadow services as a highlighter. The wearer can actually use this one palette for a full face,” said Rodden. “Plus, the rectangular space can be used to store lashes, extra lipstick or foundation for a busy woman on the go or for travels.” Each of the palettes are made in the USA, vegan, paraben free, gluten free, EU complaint and cruelty free. The cosmetic line was started by Kansas City’s Ashley Maurin Rodden in 2006 and gained notoriety as the National Sponsor of Miss Teen USA. Rodden spent a summer interning at Chanel, Inc., in New York City and Rodden studied makeup artistry in Paris, France, at the renowned Christian Chauveau makeup school. The Kansas City-based studio services women nationwide, providing in-studio and virtual makeup lessons. The line serves as the makeup provider for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and Spirit of America Productions, plus dance and cheer teams nationwide.
