7.2 / 10Worth it with conditions
One of the most recommended nipple creams in independent testing: it ranked first in Good Housekeeping UK's test (87/100, 85+ parent testers), Mother&Baby names it best overall (4.5/5), and BabyGearLab found it the most hydrating, though it scored 65/100 there because of its sticky texture.
Its only ingredient is highly purified lanolin with no smell or taste, and Lansinoh says it does not need to be wiped off before feeding.
This Amazon.sa listing holds 4.4/5, but from only 89 ratings.
Drawbacks: a thick texture that can be uncomfortable to spread on badly cracked skin, possible greasy marks on clothes, unsuitable for anyone allergic to lanolin, and at about SAR 75 from a third-party seller it costs more than its UK price (about £7-12).
Its main use is limited to the early weeks of breastfeeding.
This is an editorial assessment based on published sources; we did not test the product ourselves, and it is no substitute for advice from a midwife or lactation consultant.
A good fit if
- you want a cream you can leave on between feeds without wiping it off
- you are not allergic to lanolin or wool
- you accept its sticky texture and use nursing pads to protect your clothes

About the product
Overview
Lansinoh HPA Lanolin is a nipple cream for breastfeeding mothers made from a single ingredient: highly purified anhydrous (HPA) lanolin, a wax that comes from sheep's wool. This is the 40 ml UK/EU purple tube (part number 44302). Lansinoh says it helps soothe and protect sore, cracked nipples and dry skin.
Key features
- One ingredient: 100% lanolin with no preservatives or additives, per Lansinoh UK.
- No smell or taste, and Lansinoh says there is no need to wipe it off before feeding.
- Approved by the British Allergy Foundation, per Lansinoh UK.
- Thick, long-lasting barrier: BabyGearLab found it the thickest and most hydrating cream in its test, which helps reduce friction from clothing.
- Small amount per use: Lansinoh recommends a pea-sized amount after each feed, and Mother&Baby testers said one tube lasts a long time.
Who it suits
- Mothers in the first weeks of breastfeeding who want a cream they can leave on between feeds.
- Mothers with very dry or cracked skin who want strong, long-lasting moisture rather than a light balm.
- Anyone who also wants a plain, unscented balm for dry lips or dry patches, which Lansinoh lists as other uses.
Limitations
- The texture is thick and sticky. BabyGearLab testers found it hard to spread on cracked skin, though some mothers like the barrier it leaves.
- It can leave a greasy mark on clothes, so a nursing pad helps.
- It is made from wool wax, so it is not suitable if you are allergic to lanolin or want an animal-free product.
- A cream treats discomfort, not its cause. Sore nipples are often linked to latch or positioning, so ask a midwife or lactation consultant if pain continues.
- This listing has far fewer Amazon.sa ratings than Lansinoh's other listings, and it is sold by a third-party seller.
Care and use
- Wash your hands, warm a pea-sized amount between your fingers and apply it to the whole nipple area after a feed or as needed, per Lansinoh.
- Keep the cap closed and store it at room temperature; in cold weather, warming the tube in your hand makes it easier to squeeze.
