Mama's Natural Nipple Butter is the first organic, all natural, plant-based balm made without lanolin. Mama has some very serious concerns about using lanolin anywhere on baby, and especially on a mama's breast! Lanolin is one of those products that sounds great if you don't look too closely. After all, it is produced by a fuzzy, adorable sheep, how much more natural can you get? While lanolin is an effective moisture barrier, there are very real concerns about allergic reactions and toxic chemical contamination while using it. Many people have allergic reactions to wool, causing itching and rashes, and they just don't want to take chances using lanolin on their nipples and their babies! A sheep would also thank you for not using lanolin; the extraction process is pretty brutal for our fuzzy friends. But most concerning is that a sheep's life makes it likely to be in contact with a host of pesticides (used for ticks and lice, as well as on the food crop) and other toxins associated with non-organic farming. Traces of these toxic and carcinogenic chemicals end up in the lanolin (some studies have even found long-banned DDT!), and are surely not something you'd want to rub on your baby. Trace residues can remain on and in a mother's breast area, and then when a baby latches on to breastfeed there is a concern that the baby could ingest them.
It's scary stuff, and Mama prefers to offer options that take away any of those fears and concerns. That's why Natural Nipple Butter contains organic ingredients, is certified vegan, and is safe for both nursing mamas and babies. More than just a moisture barrier, Natural Nipple Butter has healing calendula, cocoa butter, shea butter and mango butter for cracked, dry nipples. There's no need to wash it off before nursing, and it's hospital and lactation consultant recommended. Leave it to Mama to ease your mind, while she eases nipple discomfort!
