Medela is a professional breastfeeding brand from Switzerland, with a deep medical background, and its products are extremely popular in hospitals in Europe and the United States, such as breast pumps, anti-overflow nursing pads, and milk storage bottles. Since entering China in 2007, it has become well-known among Chinese users for its comfortable and efficient breast pumps, and nipple cream has become one of the must-have items for many breastfeeding mothers.
Medela is available in two products: Purelan 100 lanolin cream and Tender Care nipple cream. Purelan 100 lanolin cream is made of medical grade lanolin, which is the same translucent yellow as Lansino, and there is no significant difference between the two in repairing chapped nipples, but because Medela adds 0.5% water to the nipple cream, it does not affect the stability of lanolin, and makes the texture much thinner, easier to push away than Lansino, and the use experience is greatly improved. Even in the cold winter, it can be easily squeezed out of the hose, although the price is more than 2 times that of Lansinuo, there is still a good sales, the price of 7g nipple cream is as high as 79 yuan, and the 37g bottle is about 170 yuan, and the shelf life is three years.
Medela Purelan 100 lanolin cream is not certified by the British Allergy Society like Lansno, but another Tender Care nipple cream is formulated with caprylic/capric triglycerides and oat β-glucan, which are very sensitive to sensitive skin, these synthetic oils improve the allergy and anti-irritation properties of the nipple cream, and promote wound healing, repair damaged skin, and feel fresher without the need to wipe before breastfeeding. At present, it is not sold in Chinese mainland, and the price of the 59ml package on Amazon in the United States is about $10.
Among all the nipple cream products on the market, the "additive-free" product basically cannot guarantee a better use experience. Reasonable addition of active ingredients can not only ensure the stability of the product, but also promote absorption and improve the use feeling, and consumers do not need to talk about "adding" color change.
