FAQs

Do I have to remove Lansinoh HPA® Lanolin prior to breastfeeding?

Lansinoh HPA® Lanolin does not need to be removed prior to breastfeeding because of the intensive purification process that is used. We do recommend applying it after breastfeeding instead of before so that it has some time to absorb into your skin.

Lansinoh HPA® Lanolin does not contain preservatives or additives of any kind (including BHT).

How is Lansinoh HPA® Lanolin different from other lanolins?

There are many grades of lanolin ranging from a crude industrial grade to our ultra-pure medical grade. Lansinoh HPA lanolin has been refined by a patented process to remove allergenic components (the free lanolin alcohols, environmental impurities like pesticide residues and detergents.

Lansinoh HPA® Lanolin stained my clothing or bedding, is the stain removable?

The best thing to do is to treat it like a grease stain before washing and use any products you can that contain a grease-fighting agent. First you should spot treat the stain; we would recommend using a grease-fighting dishwashing liquid (like Dawn), as we have learned over the years that it works very well for this. Then, you should soak it, the longer the better, overnight if you can in either hot water or some type of soaking agent like Biz. Finally, wash the stain, as normal and it should come out.

How to store HPA® Lanolin in warmer temps?

Because of our HPA® Lanolin’s purity, it’s sensitive to changes in temperature. With warmer temperatures this summer it’s important to remember to store your lanolin in a cool dry place. Exposure to heat may cause lanolin to liquify. If your lanolin does get exposed to a little extra warmth, allow it to cool before using it.
