The salve born from a mother's determination to make her second nursing journey nothing like her first

Important Note: While this salve uses food-grade ingredients and has helped thousands of mothers nurse more comfortably, please consult with your lactation consultant, pediatrician, or healthcare provider before use—especially regarding what your baby ingests while nursing. If you experience persistent pain, signs of infection, or any concerning symptoms, seek professional support. Breastfeeding shouldn't be unbearably painful.

Emily still remembers crying through every feeding with her firstborn. Cracked. Bleeding. Wondering if the bonding was worth the breaking.

So when she got pregnant with Nate, she didn't wait for the pain. She formulated this while her belly grew, testing and perfecting, determined that this time would be different. It was. And now thousands of mothers nurse without choosing between connection and comfort.

"I still remember those first weeks nursing Jaden—cracked, bleeding, crying through every feeding. When I got pregnant with Nate, I spent months perfecting this formula. No one tells you breastfeeding can hurt like hell at first, but they also don't tell you it doesn't have to. This salve changed everything for me the second time around."
— Emily Whitlock, Co-Founder & Formulator

Why You'll Love The Mother's Salve

  • Creates an actual healing barrier that stays put between feedings (not just temporary relief)
  • Safe for baby—no need to wipe off before nursing like with other creams
  • Works for mothers allergic to lanolin (the standard ingredient that causes more problems than it solves)
  • Prevents the damage, not just treats it—start using before birth for best results
  • That subtle lavender-chamomile scent that makes 3am feedings slightly more bearable

This Is Why We Do It

"I received this as a gift with my first child. At that time I didn't realize I was allergic to Lanolin cream and had zero breastfeeding knowledge. Once my son arrived and we started nursing this saved my life. It helped relieve my allergy to lanolin and continued to heal and provide relief throughout our entire breastfeeding journey. I now buy it for all my new mom friends."
— Katie, Mother

The Ritual

Apply after every feeding—generously. This isn't the place to ration. Create a visible layer that will protect and heal between nursings. No need to remove before feeding (baby-safe ingredients only). Start using it before delivery if you're smart. Apply to belly and breasts during pregnancy to prepare the skin. Emily did, and it made all the difference.

Key Ingredients

Aloe Vera Butter & Vitamin E
The healing duo. Repairs cracked skin while building resilience for tomorrow's feeding.
Beeswax & Avocado Oil
Creates a protective shield that stays put through feedings. Won't wash away with milk or saliva.
Lanolin
Yes, we use it—but balanced with plant-based alternatives so even sensitive mothers can use this safely.
Lavender & Roman Chamomile
Aromatherapy for those 3am moments when you need to breathe through it all.

Complete Your Ritual

While you're caring for yourself, don't forget baby's skin needs love too. Pair with our Baby Body Lotion for their daily moisture, and keep Baby Bum Cream ready for the other end. Because when mama's comfortable, everyone's happier.

Your body is doing something miraculous. Let us handle the painful parts.

INGREDIENTS

beeswax, organic avocado oil, extra virgin olive oil, jojoba oil, cocoa butter, lanolin, aloe vera butter, vit. e, rosemary extract, lavender and roman chamomile essential oil.

Is this safe to use while actively nursing?

This formula uses only food-grade ingredients (beeswax, plant oils, and butters) with essential oils in gentle concentrations. Emily used it herself while nursing both her boys, and you don't need to wipe it off before feeding. However, we always recommend consulting with both your healthcare provider AND your pediatrician before using any new product while breastfeeding—they can advise you based on your specific situation and your baby's needs. Every baby is different, and what works for thousands of families should still be approved by your medical team.

How is this different from lanolin-only creams?

Our formula combines lanolin with healing plant-based ingredients like aloe vera butter, vitamin E, and nourishing oils. While pure lanolin products just create a barrier, ours actively heals AND protects. The addition of therapeutic botanicals means you get repair along with relief. Katie's review is interesting—despite containing lanolin, many mothers with lanolin sensitivities find our balanced formula works when pure lanolin creams don't, possibly because of the buffering effect of the other ingredients.

Can I start using this before the baby arrives?

Ā Yes! In fact, we recommend it. Emily started using it in her third trimester with Nate to prepare her skin. Apply it to nipples and breasts during pregnancy to increase skin elasticity and resilience. Many mothers who start early report much less initial pain and cracking. Prevention is always easier than healing. As always, check with your healthcare provider about any new products during pregnancy.

When should I seek additional help?

While some discomfort is normal in the first days of breastfeeding, severe pain, bleeding, signs of infection (fever, red streaks, hot spots), or pain that doesn't improve after a few days needs professional attention. Contact your lactation consultant, midwife, or doctor. This salve helps with normal nursing discomfort, but it's not a substitute for medical care when you need it.

The best!

I was gifted this at a baby shower almost 5 years ago and have used it ever since with all my babies. Also works great on diaper rash and other booboos.
