Nipple balm by Lili&Mu is a nipple ointment with an interesting, natural composition 🌿. Our testers liked that the nipple ointment can be used already during pregnancy, so that sensitive areas are less likely to be damaged while feeding a newborn😍. Thanks to the combination of beeswax and shea butter, a protective layer is formed on the skin, ensuring comfort and safety 😊, and in the event of injuries – quick regeneration. We were captivated by the fact that the product is extremely effective in soothing irritations. It has an excellent texture that makes the balm pleasantly spread and absorbs quickly (so it does not stain clothes 😉). Aloe vera extract and vitamin E keep the skin soft and hydrated. Antimicrobial activity of coconut oil 🥥 does not allow bacteria to spread. Thanks to this, you can be sure that Lili&Mu nipple ointment will protect the delicate parts of your body from microorganisms. The cosmetic not only protects and nourishes your skin, but also improves its appearance 🤩 thanks to the content of grape seed oil. The nipple ointment has a very pleasant, delicate smell and is closed in a charming, handy jar.

Editorial Text:
Lansinoh nipple ointment is 100% lanolin sold in a 10 ml tube. The manufacturer describes their product as the purest lanolin in the world 🧐, and our testers admitted that the product is indeed of high quality. It lubricates the skin and helps in its regeneration. The cosmetic is tasteless and odorless, so there is no need to wash off the product before feeding. It is also suitable for moisturizing chapped skin of the lips 👄. The cosmetic can be used in any amount, whenever necessary. However, you should be careful, because lanolin is a fat, so it is not difficult to leave a stain that is difficult to remove (and sometimes impossible to remove). When applied, it leaves a specific sticky feeling 🤨. The product has a high price for a one-ingredient cosmetic.

Purelan by Medela is a 100% nipple ointment based on natural lanolin. It is a product that lubricates the skin and allows it to regenerate quickly and effectively 👌. The composition is completely safe and allows you not to wash off the product before feeding. However, as with Lansinoh, there are some drawbacks to the use of lanolin 🤔. The sticky and thick consistency makes the ointment difficult to spread on sore nipples. The price-to-quantity ratio of lanolin in the package is also unfavorable here, as the tube holds only 7g of the product. There are also larger packages available - 37g, but according to our testers, it is practically impossible 👎 to use the entire package before the expiration date - unless the packaging is to serve a larger number of people (e.g. in various types of facilities). Without a doubt, it is a quality product, but it will not become our ideal.

Lano-ointment by Ziaja is an ointment for nipples from the Mamma Mia line, designed for mothers 👩🏻. Similarly to the products from points 2 and 3 of our ranking, Lano-ointment is lanolin without additives. And also, like any lanolin, it leaves greasy stains 🤨. However, unlike Lansinoh and Medela products, Ziaja's nipple ointment does not contain such well-purified lanolin, which gives the cosmetic a specific, although natural, fragrance. However, this translates into its price, which is very affordable. The testers confirmed the effectiveness of the ointment, which regenerates damaged epidermis and creates an oily protective layer. They also pointed out that the ointment is thick and sticky, making it quite difficult to spread (especially on damaged nipples) and can be painful 😞. 15 ml of the efficient ointment is enclosed in a tube, but it is so hard and bulky that it is difficult to use the product to the end, which makes Ziaja not as economical a solution as it might seem at first glance.

- low price
- natural composition

- helps the skin regenerate
Disadvantages
Ziaja Mamma Mia, Lano-ointment, nipple ointment

Editorial Text:
Maltan nipple ointment is a product often recommended by midwives, but usually... those that have a lot of life experience and little time until retirement 😉. Of course, there are people who appreciate brands that do not change their ingredients for many years, but in our opinion, following the times, there are more and more interesting ingredients available, which are worth enriching the formula of the cosmetic. Maltan is an ointment whose composition is based on products derived from petroleum. They are known for their properties supporting the regeneration of the epidermis, but nowadays they are often controversial 🤔. The cosmetic moisturizes and is easy to apply. Our testers have observed that the Maltan nipple ointment can clog the pores of thin skin on the breasts, and its use does not always bring the expected results. Some of our testers have pointed out that the nipple regeneration effect is not immediate. The product contains glucose, which, when applied to the damaged epidermis, can become a breeding ground for bacteria 👎. In our opinion, the Maltan wart ointment raises a lot of doubts for such a popular product.
Benefits
Maltan, nipple care ointment during pregnancy and breastfeeding, nipple ointment
- spreads well
- moisturizes
- promotes healing
Disadvantages
Maltan, nipple care ointment during pregnancy and breastfeeding, nipple ointment
- contains petroleum derivatives
- can cause the growth of bacteria on damaged epidermis
- effects are not immediate
- can clog pores around the nipples
- is not always effective
