Information

Purelan™ - Lanolin Cream

Purelan™ - Lanolin Cream

In the first few days and weeks of frequent breastfeeding, many women experience nipple soreness and dry skin. Purelan™ lanolin cream gives you fast relief for sore nipples and dry skin.^1-4

It is 100% natural and safe for your baby - you do not need to remove before breastfeeding.

Fast relief for sore nipples and dry skin ¹¯4

Safe for your baby - no need to remove before breastfeeding

100% natural, single-ingredient lanolin. No additives, preservatives and fragrance added

Ultra-pure medical-grade lanolin tested to the highest safety standards, the European Pharmacopoeia and United States Pharmacopoeia standards

Effective - rich texture creates a protective layer on the skin's surface and rehydrates from within

When absorbed into the skin, Purelan™ lanolin cream mimics the skin's natural ability to store moisture and can hold more than twice its weight in water - naturally helping skin's rehydration.

As well as soothing dry nipples or soreness during breastfeeding, Purelan™ can be used to moisturise a variety of dry skin areas, such as chapped lips, dry hands and cuticles, elbows and cracked heels.

Purelan™ is available in 37 g and a handy 7 g size - ready for you to use whenever you need it through the day.

What makes Purelan™ hypoallergenic?

Purelan™ formulation has been developed to minimize its allergenic potential. Carefully controlling the levels of FLA (free lanolin alcohols) in lanolin can reduce skin reactions even among those who are already sensitive to lanolin. Research shows that reducing the FLA content to less than 3%, particularly when detergent residues have been removed from the product, reduces the incidence of positive patch-test reactions among lanolin-sensitive skin patients. With an alcohol fraction of less than 3% in Purelan™, the allergenic potential to lanolin alcohols, which is observed rarely, is reduced to an absolute minimum as per EP (European Pharmacopeia).

Purelan™ does not contain other additives that might cause a reaction, such as preservatives and fragrances.

Additionally, Purelan™ is dermatologically tested. However, anyone with a known lanolin allergy should avoid using lanolin products, including Purelan™.

When should I apply nipple cream?

Use Purelan™ at every feed to relieve soreness, moisturise, and protect your nipples and skin. There is no need to remove the lanolin cream before feeding your baby.

How do you apply the lanolin cream to your nipples?

With clean hands, apply a pea-sized amount of Purelan™ onto your nipple area - the smooth, rich texture of Purelan™ makes it easy to apply. Purelan™ creates a protective layer on the surface of your skin and rehydrates skin from within - relieving soreness while skin heals naturally. There is no need to remove the cream again before feeding.

USAGE ADVICE

See Instructions for Use

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from YES please! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lanolin Oil was one of the items on my must have list. As a first time mum, I spoke to friends who'd breast fed before me; and a common tip was to get my hands on some Lanolin ointment. I was looking for a pure product as I didn't want to deal with extra ingredients that may clog my pores and ducts. I think the Purelan ointment was easy to apply, safe to use (No need to runoff before breast feeding) and a convenient healing option for me as I don't want to spend too much time with hydrogel breast pads or nipple covers. I often apply when I go to bed. And by the next feed (4-5 hours later) I feel more relief and comfort.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cindy C from Great cream for fast healing [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The cream has a thick consistency but still easy to spread on the nipples (it’s a 30 degree day in Melbourne) and I feel it provides a barrier between my nipples and my breast pads. I think this is an essential product for breastfeeding moms and should be recommended to everyone.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Monique M from Nipple Heaven [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this just in time for my second round of painful, cracked nipples so was able to give it a try. Within a few days, the pain was gone and they were healing nicely. The pros of using this ointment is that you don't need to wash it off before feeding bub so great to pop on before bed and leave, also a little bit goes a long way! The cons, being an ointment it can be a bit 'greasy' feeling but I can look past that for the relief it provides.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kat K from Eased the pain [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time mum and I wasn't sure what to expect. When nipple pain, dryness and cracking became a thing - Purelan Lanolin Cream helped. It gave soothing relief, it didn't stay wet or make a mess. I continued to use it after the feeds and it has really helped my breastfeeding journey. I wasn't expecting it to give the relief it did.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kymberly M from Great product for an affordable price! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great lanolin product at an affordable price. I trust the Medela brand for breastfeeding accessories/bottles and Purelan is no exception. It is easy to use and has helped with some slight nipple discomfort during my breastfeeding journey. Recently had my 3rd baby and found this product whilst feeding my 2nd over 5 years ago. I bought while pregnant to use with this newborn and i haven’t had major nipple damage like with my first born. Definitely recommend

Rated 5 out of 5 by Joanne R from Great [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product helped me before and during my breastfeeding journey. I conditioned my breasts 6 weeks before my baby arrived and than continued putting the product on every time I fed my baby and after every feed. It kept my nipples in perfect condition and it was safe for baby to use whilst feeding as well which meant I didn’t have to wipe it off for every feed. Great product highly recommend any Mummas to purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Phoebe K from Sample has converted me! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a sample of this ointment in my bump box from Tell Me Baby and it worked a treat! I’ve just started breastfeeding and this ointment has really helped my soreness ease. This product is highly recommended! I’ve just bought a tube of this now to use on the regular.

Date published: 2021-12-08

Rated 5 out of 5 by Victoria B from Love [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This amazing lanolin cream and the nipple guards by the same brand saved the beginning of my breast feeding journey. I was raw about a week or two after I started feeding and this lanolin cream saved me. It was so calming and healing and worked instantly. Safe also for bub to come in contact with which is great!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nicki D from Great product. Good value. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the medela over some competitors, I found the size to be of a really good size and value. It doesn’t have a strong smell like other brands and also like you don’t have to remove between feeds. I have another product which is impossible to get out unless the room temp is over 25 degrees bath the medela one is easy to get out of the tube. It does leave a yellow mark on breast pads but had no issues with it coming out in the wash. My preferred out of the ones I have tried.

Date published: 2021-09-15

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sonia K from Gifted and liked! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave this as a gift to a friend as she has said it was amazing in helping to soothe her cracked nipples. I have used it myself too and love that it doesn’t irritate my extremely sensitive skin. It’s safe for bubba to feed right after application which takes the worry out of your mind once applied. The tube is quite small but you really only need a tiny amount which makes it go far. Worth the $10 for sure!

Date published: 2021-07-06

Rated 5 out of 5 by Amy L from Soothes sensitive nipples [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Medela nipple cream came from the medela breastfeeding starter kit that I bought at the retailers. I quite like the cream as it's easily comes out and not as thick compared to other brands. I would definately recommend it as I did find it soothed my sensitive nipples and it's safe for bub

Date published: 2021-07-01

Rated 5 out of 5 by Manpreet A from Safe & Effective [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolute miracle worker for me. I applied this after every feed and every shower and it gave so much relief. Whilst using it I never got cracked nipples. Baby could feed without having to wash it off. Pleasant smelling. Thick and long lasting. Safe for baby. What more could you want.

Date published: 2021-06-30

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sky D from Must have [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely a must have if you want to breastfeed. This was my first baby so we were both learning how to feed and this product absolutely saved my nipples. Great consistency. Not a huge tube but a little really goes a long way with this stuff so it didn't matter. I tried 2 of these products and this was my preference

Date published: 2021-06-08

Rated 5 out of 5 by Michelle S from Purelan [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used the Medela purelan 100 after the birth of my daughter and it brought a lot of relief, it helped with cracked nipples and helped with the healing! It was easy to pop a small amount into your fingertips and rub around the nipple! I found this product available in the chemist

Date published: 2021-05-31

Rated 5 out of 5 by Miranda H from Pretty good! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product with my Medela breast pump and I can’t fault it. I found it healing and did not cause my skin any issues. However, I have only used it on medium to low irritated skin. I do prefer Lanisoh in comparison as my skin responded really well to it when my nipples were going through a particularly tough time fresh into breast feeding. That is not to say this product wouldn’t hold up to that, I just wasn’t using it at that point in time on my breastfeeding journey.

Date published: 2021-05-07

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sarah R from Great product [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this ointment in a medela pack with my pump and ended up going to buy more. Preferred the consistency and seemed to work more effectively than other brands and was a similar price, if not cheaper than some others. Smallish tube but did last quite awhile, I stored in fridge if was hot day and this was soothing.

Date published: 2021-03-01

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sakinah A from I would give 6 stars if I can! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PRO: Works wonders! It's a must have for early days of breastfeeding. Also much cheaper than other leading brand per gram. Easily accessible in stores. It has a thick, yet smooth consistency therefore you don't need much each time you use. CON: I can't find any. I thoroughly recommend. A must have for hospital bags.

Date published: 2021-01-08

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rochelle M from Little handbag lifesaver [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had very damaged nipples at the beginning of my pumping journey and this cream helped to heal them fast. It provided instant relief from the pain of cracks. It is made from pure lanolin so I love that it has no nasties and I don’t have to wash it off before feeding like some other balms.

Date published: 2020-09-02

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ewa M from Best stuff ever [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Medela Purelan was hands down the best ointment I had used. While I found it more expensive than the other brands it did prove to be the most effective for me. The consistency is thick but unlike some others it’s not difficult to squeeze out of the tube and it definitely provides soothing relief that lasts.

Date published: 2020-08-07

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jenna R from Medela Purelan 100 Nipple Cream [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolute miracle worker for me. I applied this after every feed and every shower and it gave so much relief. Whilst using it I never got cracked nipples. Baby could feed without having to wash it off. Pleasant smelling. Thick and long lasting. Safe for baby. What more could you want

Rated 5 out of 5 by Alexandra M from Best healing cream for cracked nipples [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had an extremely painful cracked left nipple when first breastfeeding my daughter. I tried a number of products which didn't seem to help at all. My cousin suggested this cream and it created an amazing barrier and healed the crack within 24 hours. I will only use this now if I have the same issue again.

Date published: 2020-05-30

Rated 5 out of 5 by Emily F from Medela Purelan Tube [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Such a great cream for a sore and cracked nipple. As a first time mom I struggled with breastfeeding. Had a painful, dry, cracked nipple at the beginning of my breastfeeding journey. After having to read reviews online, I sent my husband to buy this product and as soon as he came home with it, I put in on and like magic to my nipple! The cream is a very thick consistency, you will have to rub it a bit on your finger tips before applying directly and rub it on the affected skin. I would recommend to this product.

Date published: 2020-05-23

Rated 5 out of 5 by Charmaine S from Love Lanolin [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great cream to use to prevent and moisturise nipples during breastfeeding. After breastfeeding time is over, I use this as a lip balm on my children and I. I use it to cover up any dry patches on their skin to lock in moisture to heal and prevent dryness. Works a treat!

Date published: 2020-03-04

Rated 5 out of 5 by jacklyn from Exactly as it says - pure lanolin [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you know what lanolin is, than its perfect. It’s a super thick texture that you have to warm up (either by rubbing between you fingers first or straight on the skin) to apply nicer but it is soooo moisturising. I use it for both my nipples and lips and it’s really does help with any itchiness and dryness

Date published: 2020-02-19

Rated 5 out of 5 by michelle from Very happy [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally bought this ointment as a quick buy because I left my nipple balm at home and I work in a pharmacy. This one I was very happy with as I’ve tried to many but to be honest I really like it as a lip balm and it sits on my bedside table. I am no longer breast feeding so I guess I’m not wasting the product. It’s 100% pure lanolin.

Date published: 2020-02-11

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Natural [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this has natural ingredients and that it is hypoallergenic. I think this product is great for sensitive and dry nipples especially when you are breast feeding, a little bit goes a long way! it helped hydrate my nipples and keep them from getting cracked while I was breastfeeding

Date published: 2020-01-16

Rated 5 out of 5 by laurahedges from A must for postpartum [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given a tube of this as a part of a Medela pumping pack that I purchased. I could not have survived those early days of breastfeeding without it! It soothes and Protects really well. It is also good to know that it is safe for Bub. Definitely great to have on hand!

Date published: 2019-10-04

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Medela Purelan Tube [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought that this product was great. I found that it really helped in those first few weeks when my nipples were cracked and sore. I would put it on after feeding and it would really work to heal me before the next feed. It is also great that you don't have to worry about washing it off before feeding. The only negative that I found is that it is quite thick, and therefore it would catch a little on my cracked nipples. However that was made up for my how well it worked. I would definitely recommend to other mums

Date published: 2018-09-08

Rated 5 out of 5 by mia from Yep! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this one in hospital because it was the one that was sold in the hospital pharmacy downstairs. It works. It's all natural ingredients and it is very effective. Soothing on sore nipples and helps establish breastfeeding in those first early weeks because it provides enough relief for you to keep going.

Date published: 2017-05-14

Rated 5 out of 5 by mel from 100% pure ingredients, 100% effective! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Medela Purelan 100 cream is great. A part from breastmilk, I haven't used any other product that 'soothes sensitive nipples and dry skin'. This is the only product I have needed to use for this, and love that it is 'hypoallergenic'. I love that this product is '100% ultra pure' and has 'no additives or preservatives.' There is no need to wash this product off because it is pure Landlin, and I find it useful that it is thick and the packaging only allows you to dispense a small amount at a time because there is little to no product wastage which is very cost effective. This same tube has lasted me almost four months now and I still am nowhere near the end of it.
