Amazing benefits for nipple cream

Nipple cream is a must for breastfeeding mothers but its special formulation makes it also suitable for many other uses.

While moms know how nipple cream can soothe dry, sore, cracked nipples, did you know that there are many other ways you can use nipple cream? Take a look:

As a lip balm: Are your puckers in need of some TLC? Nipple cream is hands down the best lip balm around. The tiniest bit of nipple cream can protect, moisturise and heal your dry, cracked lips. It doesn’t tingle and sting like certain lip balms do. It just leaves a smooth, rich, protective barrier on your lips.

For bumps & bruises:  Is your little one’s skin very sensitive? If so, you’ll know that when she falls and skins her knees, even taking a gentle bath stings the wounds. We all hate seeing our children cry. Enter the lanolin. It provides a soothing, non-stingy barrier and helps the wound heal faster. It also works exceptionally well on rug burn-type wounds.

As a drool rash ointment: If your baby is approaching teething time her poor chin will likely have seen better days. Excess drool causes skin to become dry and chapped. A few applications of nipple cream later and the dry, red rash is completely gone. A good idea is to always rub a little on her cheeks, too. It keeps her skin smooth and fresh. And you don’t have to worry about her rubbing a little into her mouth.

Perfect for little bums: Lanolin also makes a great barrier for the bum. It protects your baby’s bottom and heals chapped areas. Do you see a pattern here? Lanolin nipple cream is good for any rash!

Great for cuts and grazes: Not only does it soothe the sting and promote healing, but it stops the bleeding too. Handy!

Other uses for nipple cream include:

  • Helps heal minor cuts, burns, and skin abrasions.
  • Soothes itchy stretch marks.
  • Replenishes the lanolin in wool diaper covers and wool nursing pads.
  • Cracked heels, dry winter cuticles, or wind- and cold-chapped cheeks.
  • Treats eczema.
  • Unstick a stuck zipper.
  • Helps remove a too-tight ring from fingers swollen from pregnancy.
  • Moisturises dry and itchy skin on elbows, knees, and heels.
