Nip Stick

Most new mums will hear that breastfeeding 'shouldn't hurt'. It's true, with positioning sorted and a great latch by baby, it shouldn't hurt or cause damage.

Yet for mums that are brand new to the whole gig, it can. And the rookie mistakes are real, and common. 

In those early weeks on the steep learning curve, nipples get a lot of action! Action that they're not used to.

It's all about learning how to get baby on, stay on, feed well and then come off. And repeat. 

In this process, nipples can get very tender, grazed or at worst, cracked and bleed.

So it's no surprise this can affect the entire breastfeeding experience for the mother, and consequently her baby.

Every mama needs a boobie balm on hand!

The Nip Stick is a twist-up, botanical rich boobie balm.

Made from 100% organic ingredients, it helps to relieve sore, chafed, cracked and worn out breastfeeding nipples.

At the same time, it promotes healing of this delicate and super essential area!

Plus it's safe for baby, so there is no need to wash it off before feeding.

The convenient, highly portable twist-up stick is perfect for discreet use. Keep one in your nappy bag and one at home!

Smooths on easily upon contact with your body heat for fast-acting comfort.

And I repeat - no need to wash off before baby feeds!

Why?

Coconut oil: Rich in fatty acids, vitamin E, antioxidants, antimicrobial and antifungal properties. Its moisture retaining capacity makes it protective against cracking of the skin.

Calendula: One of the best herbs for any skin inflammation. A great remedy for grazes, bruising, or slow-healing wounds. Also has antifungal and astringent properties.

Plantain: Renown for its healing value due to its soothing and astringent properties. Cooling to inflamed, tender skin.

Marshmallow: Its high demulcent properties are made for inflamed skin.

Rosehip: High in vitamins A and C, plus lycopene. This oil is great for encouraging healing and regeneration. It promotes collagen and elastin levels and is rich in antioxidants. Perfect for soothing and hydrating dry, itchy, or chafed skin.

Shea butter: Hailed for its protective and emollient properties. Rich in vitamins A and E, and essential fatty acids necessary for skin repair and collagen production. 

Beeswax: Helps lock in the skin's natural moisture. Protects and repairs any rough, dry or chapped skin.

Gently apply to affected area after feeding, as required.

When the Nip Stick makes contact with your body warmth it will soften to smooth on gently.

Safe for baby, no need to wash off before feeds.

If you've just applied some Nip Stick and baby decides they haven’t quite finished their feed, simply wipe off with your fingers, a tissue or cloth. No need to wash off.

Also great for chapped lips and any other dry, chaffed or rashy skin!
