Nipple care

Care for sensitive and sore nipples

Sensitive, sore nipples are one of the most common complaints during breastfeeding. It often happens in the first weeks, while your skin adjusts to feeding. This collection brings together products that soothe and protect the skin and support its natural recovery.

Nipple cream with 100% pure lanolin

Difrax LOVI Lanolin cream forms a protective barrier and hydrates the skin intensively. It contains 100% pure lanolin, with no additives, preservatives or fragrance. It is hypoallergenic, dermatologically tested and does not need to be removed before feeding. The 37 gram tube also works on chapped lips and dry or sensitive skin.

Cooling breast patches with lanolin

These hydrogel patches offer gentle cooling between feeds and protect the skin against friction and irritation. They are discreet, fit inside your bra and come hygienically packed in pairs. Place an unopened sachet in the fridge briefly for extra cooling. Each pack contains 8 patches (4 x 2).

Nipple shields during the feed

Nipple shields are a temporary aid during breastfeeding. They protect sore nipples and help your baby latch on when nipples are flat or inverted. They are ultra-thin, made of 100% medical grade silicone, and do not change the taste or smell of the milk.

For engorgement and full breasts

Thermo gel breast pads can be used both warm and cold. Cold, they reduce swelling, tenderness and irritation. Warm, they support the release of milk ducts. The soft side rests directly on the skin, with no extra cover needed.

What is the best cream for sore nipples?

A cream with 100% pure lanolin is the most widely used option while breastfeeding. Lanolin forms a protective layer, keeps the skin hydrated and supports recovery. Choose one without additives, preservatives or fragrance, so you do not have to remove it before a feed.

How often should you apply nipple cream?

Apply it after each feed to clean, dry nipples. A thin layer is enough. The rich texture stays in place and helps keep the skin supple until the next feed.

What helps with cracked nipples?

Start with the latch, as that is usually the cause. Alongside that, lanolin cream and cooling hydrogel patches soothe the skin and support recovery. If the pain persists, contact a lactation consultant.

When do you use nipple shields?

Nipple shields are a temporary aid: for sore nipples, or when your baby struggles to latch on flat or inverted nipples. They make feeding easier without changing the taste or smell of your milk.
