Lanolin is what new moms everywhere use to ease the damage done to your nipples when you start breastfeeding your tiny precious newborn. The nurses in the hospitals assured me that it was safe for both mom and babe, although they did mention it's best to use the Lansinoh brand. I know that the lanolin found in hand creams is somehow different than the lanolin in Lansinoh brand lanolin... do you know if the same risks still apply?

I was amazed at how easy it was to make and at how great it worked. I simply poured some sea salt ( from the Bulk Barn) into a glass jar, about 1 cup, and added olive oil. I only used enough oil to soak the salt and to allow for some oil to remain. The salt scrubs away the dead, dry skin and the oil adds some much needed moisture to winter skin.
