Mother knows best! Pure lanolin is only difficult to find if you're looking
in the wrong place for it. Nursing mothers frequently use lanolin and it is
packaged and distributed by La Leche League under the brand name "Lansinoh."
You can find it drug stores and many grocery stores with other products for
new mothers and/or babies. It comes in a plastic squeeze tube
-- very convenient.
