> 24 hourSomeone suggested this product as an alternative for me due to my nose becoming extremely raw and chapped from my cpap. This helps moisturize my nose area while protecting it when using my cpap as well. My nose does still peel just from the dryness of the air while using, but my nose is no longer hurting badly and chapped to high heavens. This was a good purchase and I definitely will continue to use in the future as long as I need a cpap. I will say a little goes a long way!

> 24 hourHad chronic chapped, peeling lips for months. Neither aquaphor or carmex helped. Within the first couple hours of first application, my lips felt soothed! What a releif. Used it for a couple weeks and my chapped lips are completely cured. Now instead of applying a few times daily, Ill apply maybe a couple times a week. Ordered two more tubes. One for my glovebox, one for my hiking bag. Highly recommend.

> 24 hourCouldnt imagine going through the first couple weeks of breastfeeding without this. It was recommended to me by my nurses and they gave me one to take home from the hospital. I had initially purchased a different kind that was more like a balm, was organic, and made with essential oils, but it didnt help at all compared to this Lansinoh lanolin. I ended up buying a few of these and keep one at my nursing station, one in my pump bag, and one in my bathroom.

> 24 hourSaw a video that said this works great for chapped lips. I’ve legit bought at least 50 different chap sticks and none helped. Figured this couldn’t hurt to try and SOOOO glad I did!

> 24 hourWhen i first started pumping it was absolutely miserable and painful, i used this after every pump and my nipples healed amazingly! I now use it once a day to make sure my nipples are moisturized and good to go.

> 24 hourI can tell if this cream works for healing but it gives a right after nursing for sure.

> 24 hourI read a lot about the battle between Lansinoh and Medela, and decided to go with Lansinoh. I cant compare, since Ive only had this one, but Im very happy with it and am not having the problems other people seem to be having. It is a bit thick, but I dont find that to be such a huge problem. If you hold a dab of it between your fingers for a couple of seconds, it melts from your body heat and is easier to spread. You dont have to rub it on cold! Also, I dont think it stains. Ive wiped so much of it on burp cloths and yet they wash clean every time, and after I wipe I dont see a stain either. What stains is breast milk, or maybe a combination of lanolin and breast milk? There are hard-to-wash stains occasionally on my clothes or burp cloths, but in drip and drop patterns like from leaked milk, not the smears of lanolin from my fingers, so I really cant blame the lanolin for that. As for the effectiveness of it, I found out when I got too lazy to apply it after the night feedings. My nipples would get tender and start hurting every time! Also, if I forgot to put a fresh coat on before a shower, the spray would hurt too, but a thick coat of lanolin protects the nipples from it. Applying it religiously after each feeding/pumping session in the first couple of months was crucial, and I could see the difference every time I forgot to. Now after 3 months my nipples are tougher and I can skip applications, though I still need lanolin a couple times a day. I like that this one is pure, too, with no additives, since some of it inevitably goes into my babys mouth. So overall, Im very happy, and am on my second tube now.

> 24 hourI use this as chapstick and it is the best thing Ive ever done. I am obsessed with having gloss or chapstick on my lips at all times because I hate having dry lips. This stuff makes it so that even after it is worn off my lips are soft. I highly recommend

> 24 hourI am here to confirm the rumors: although intended for nipples, this stuff works wonders on the lips! I have had severely dry lips due to a medication I am taking and saw people raving about this stuff online. I am now also a believer! It is definitely sticky/greasy/will leave residue on things, but its the best thing I have found so far and looks almost like a lip gloss when wearing. If you have crusty little lips that aquaphor lip repair is having a hard time keeping up with, definitely give this a try!
