Lansinoh Lanolin Nipple Cream is an over-the-counter topical soothe and protect skin barrier ointment. Each 40ml tube contains 100% Ultra-Pure Medical-Grade Lanolin (HPA® Lanolin), free from preservatives, parabens, fragrance, taste, or additives.
Applied topically, breastfeeding mothers use it for the prevention and treatment of sore, cracked, dry, or bleeding nipples associated with nursing, as well as for general dry skin relief.
Lansinoh uses a single-ingredient, highly purified formulation to promote moist wound healing:
Moist Wound Healing: Creates a semi-occlusive skin barrier that seals in the skin's natural moisture, accelerating natural skin barrier repair without scab formation.
Soothes & Cushions Sensitive Tissue: Provides immediate, deep-moisturizing relief to tender, irritated, or cracked nipple tissue caused by latching, suction, or pump friction.
100% Safe for Baby: Hypoallergenic and highly purified through a patented refining process that removes environmental impurities and allergens. No need to wash or wipe it off before breastfeeding.
🚨 Allergen Caution: Lanolin is a natural byproduct derived from sheep's wool.
Do NOT use if you or your infant have a known allergy or hypersensitivity to wool or lanolin.
🚨 Infection Warning: Nipple cracks or sores accompanied by intense deep-breast pain, pus, oozing, red streaks, fever, or flu-like symptoms may indicate a bacterial infection or mastitis.
Consult a physician, midwife, or lactation consultant immediately if these symptoms occur.
External Topical Use Only: Apply directly to affected skin surfaces.
Latching Assistance: While lanolin soothes sore skin, persistent nipple sore or pain is most commonly caused by improper infant latching. Work with a qualified lactation specialist to address latch technique.
Wash Hands: Thoroughly wash your hands before application.
Soften the Cream: Squeeze a pea-sized amount onto clean fingertips and rub between fingers to warm and soften the rich ointment.
Apply Smoothly: Gently smooth over the entire nipple and areola area after every feeding session or as needed.
Before Nursing: Do NOT wash off. It is 100% safe for your baby to nurse with the cream on.
Safe to apply prior to breast pumping to reduce friction on the flange.
Can be applied to dry lips, cracked heels, dry cuticles, or minor chafed skin.
Lansinoh Lanolin Cream is exceptionally pure and hypoallergenic, but minor reactions can rarely include:
Localized contact dermatitis, mild redness, or itching in individuals with unconfirmed wool sensitivities.
Do I really need to wash off Lansinoh Lanolin before nursing my baby?
No! Lansinoh HPA® Lanolin is 100% pure, natural, taste-free, and odorless. It is completely safe for infants, so you do not need to wipe or rinse it off before breastfeeding.
Why is the cream firm or difficult to squeeze out?
Pure lanolin naturally thickens in cooler room temperatures. Simply warm the tube between your hands for a few seconds or rub a pea-sized amount between your fingertips before applying.
How should I store this tube?
Store in a cool, dry place strictly below 25°C or 30°C, away from direct heat and sunlight. Keep the cap tightly closed when not in use. Keep out of reach of children.
