Who It's Designed For
The Bosom Ritual Balm was created for breastfeeding and expressing mothers experiencing dry, tender, cracked or compromised nipples at any stage of their feeding journey.
It is for the mother seeking more than a temporary barrier layer. For the mother navigating the intensity of early feeds, frequent expressing, or ongoing nipple discomfort, and looking for a nourishing botanical formulation to help support and protect delicate skin between feeds.
Many mothers also choose to use the Balm proactively, helping maintain skin comfort and condition before irritation develops.
Beyond breastfeeding, it has become a staple in many family homes, used to comfort dry patches, chapped lips, nappy area dryness and skin in need of additional barrier support.
If your skin is asking for nourishment, protection and care, this balm was formulated for you.
Why is this different
Most nipple balms are formulated with simple waxes, oils or lanolin designed primarily to create a protective barrier on the skin. The Bosom Ritual Balm takes a more considered approach.
At the heart of the balm is our signature six-week herbal infusion process. Powdered alfalfa and echinacea are slowly incorporated through a specialised filtration drip cycle, creating a richly infused botanical oil base that forms the foundation of the formula.
Combined with calendula, evening primrose and lecithin, it delivers nourishing fatty acids alongside naturally occurring vitamins A, B, D and E to help condition dry, stressed and delicate skin during breastfeeding.
The balm melts on contact, creating a protective cushion over sore nipples without lanolin, petroleum, synthetic fragrance or essential oils.
While developed for breastfeeding mothers, it has also become a trusted staple for women experiencing dry, compromised or sensitive skin, including those navigating breast radiation recovery, eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis.
How To Use
Gently pat the nipple dry. Ensure clean fingertips and apply the Balm sparingly to the nipple or directly to skin in need of special attention for instant nourishment, protection, and enhanced healing. Gently remove any residual balm from the nipple and areola before breastfeeding to ensure a clean, dry surface for your baby to latch effectively.
If the Balm has had adequate time to fully absorb between application and feeding, removal is not necessary. Reapply between feeds as needed. Our position is that an optimal latch always comes first — any topical product on the nipple, regardless of how clean its ingredients, has the potential to interfere with suction and should be removed before your baby feeds. Recommended for daily use throughout nursing and pumping.

The Mammae Difference
Your nipples deserve more than commodity oils and generic waxes.
We formulate with ingredients typically reserved for premium facial skincare—because the most sensitive skin on your body deserves the highest standard of care. Our Japanese berry wax replaces the generic waxes found in conventional nipple balms, delivering a velvety texture that melts into skin and forms a protective cushion over cracked, sore, and inflamed nipples.
Each batch is prepared using our unique in-house powdered herbal extraction method, drawing potent therapeutic properties from certified organic Echinacea and Alfalfa that you simply won't find in off-the-shelf alternatives. This is the balm our mothers describe as soothing the burning sensation from the inside out.
Unscented and designed for the most sensitive skin, the Bosom Ritual Balm goes beyond breastfeeding. Trusted by our community for nappy rash, cradle cap, perioral dermatitis, seasonal skin changes, and as a gentle option for women navigating post-radiation skin sensitivity.
LOVED BY MUMS
Trusted by Maternal Care Practitioners
“”I tried a couple of nipple creams from the local chemist while exclusively expressing to give my nipples a break, but nothing seemed to help. As a clueless first-time mum, I was honestly getting desperate and willing to try anything that might help heal my nipples. Finally, I found and ordered this nipple balm from Mammae's website, received it on Tuesday afternoon, and on Wednesday night I was able to direct breastfeed again. I also applied the balm to the irritated, itchy skin around my groin area from wearing maternity pads every day. The next day, I realised I had stopped scratching altogether. Like wow, I'm so happy I found this balm.
“”This balm has been a lifeline. It worked so effectively during breastfeeding that I still have a huge pot left, and so I’ve started using it on my child’s eczema. After years of trying countless creams, this has been a total game changer. It takes the itch and inflammation out quickly and has been incredible for keeping his flare-ups at bay. I’m not claiming it’s a fix for everything (and I’d always recommend seeing a lactation expert if you’re struggling), but it truly helped me through one of the hardest parts of my feeding journey. It would make a beautiful gift for any new mum. The glass jar packaging is divine.
“”This balm works wonders. I was in so much pain with nipple damage, but this balm worked absolute wonders. Expensive, but honestly, so worth it. It wasn’t sticky, has zero fragrance, and soothed the burning pain instantly! You get what you pay for - it’s a very generous size jar. I have lots leftover but now I just use it on my cheeks and dry spots and it’s been amazing for that too. It’s a good all rounder that actually works to deeply hydrate and heal the skin. Very impressed. Quality product.
Do I need to wipe the Balm off before breastfeeding?
Yes. Gently remove any residual Balm from the nipple and areola before feeding to ensure a clean, dry surface for your baby to grip and latch effectively. If the Balm has had adequate time to fully absorb between application and feeding, removal is not necessary. Reapply between feeds as needed for ongoing nourishment and protection. Our position is that an optimal latch always comes first, any topical product on the nipple, regardless of how clean its ingredients, has the potential to interfere with grip and should be cleared before your baby feeds.
Is this safe for my baby to ingest small amounts?
The Mammae Bosom Ritual Balm is formulated with natural and certified organic botanicals and is free from synthetic fragrance, essential oils, tree nut oils, artificial colours, parabens, and petrochemicals. While it is designed for external use only and we recommend wiping the nipple area before feeding, the ingredient profile has been selected with the breastfeeding dyad in mind. If you have any specific concerns, consult your healthcare provider or IBCLC.
Can it be used on other areas of the body?
Yes, the Mammae Balm is intentionally formulated and awarded as a multipurpose first aid whole body treatment. Beyond nipple care, it can be used on dry patches, minor cuts, bites, burns, cracked or dry lips, nappy rash, heels, and cuticles. Its anti-inflammatory properties — derived from calendula, echinacea, bisabolol, and lecithin — provide soothing relief for conditions such as eczema and dermatitis. Suitable for adults and children alike.
My Balm has softened or melted in transit — is it still okay to use?
Yes. Textural fluctuations in natural and organic wax-based products are considered normal during warmer temperatures and in transit. This does not affect the performance, integrity, or shelf life of the formula. If the Balm has melted, we recommend opening the lid carefully and placing it in the fridge for up to 1 hour to restore the solid form. Once reset, it will perform exactly as intended.
How is this different from lanolin-based nipple creams?
The Bosom Ritual Balm is 100% vegan and lanolin-free. Lanolin is derived from sheep's wool and is one of the most common contact allergens in nipple care products — studies have identified it as a frequent cause of contact dermatitis, particularly on compromised or cracked skin. The Mammae Balm uses a luxury plant-based formulation including a rhus verniciflua berry wax, candelilla wax, and olive fruit oil as its protective base, enriched with echinacea, calendula, and lecithin for their anti-inflammatory and reparative properties. It provides the same barrier protection without the allergen risk associated with lanolin.
What makes the Balm effective for cracked nipples?
The Balm is formulated to address the three key needs of damaged nipples: protection, hydration, and repair. It melts into the skin on contact and forms a protective cushion over the affected area, shielding it from friction and further irritation. It imbues the skin with reparative vitamins A, B, D, and E, gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), linoleic acid (LA), and omegas 3, 6, and 9. The combination of calendula, echinacea, and bisabolol provides anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial support to the compromised skin barrier.
Can I layer the Balm under the Silver Nursing Cups?
No. It is not recommended to apply the Balm directly under the silver nursing cups. Combining these two therapeutic tools may diminish the efficacy of the silver nursing cups and could potentially compromise the 999 fine silver composition. Instead, use the Balm and the silver cups at alternating times — apply the Balm after removing the cups, allow it to absorb fully, and then reapply the cups to clean, dry skin when ready.
Is the Balm unscented?
Yes. The Balm is formulated without any added fragrance, essential oil blends, or synthetic scent. Any subtle aroma you may notice is the natural character of the raw skin identical botanical extracts, including cocoa seed butter and calendula. This makes it suitable for use during breastfeeding when your baby is in close proximity and both of you may be sensitive to strong scents.
Is the Balm suitable for babies and children?
Yes. The Balm's unscented, natural formulation makes it suitable for use on children for minor skin irritations, dry patches, nappy rash, and small cuts or grazes. As with any product applied to young children, perform a patch test first and discontinue if irritation occurs.
Does the Balm contain any common allergens?
The Balm is free from lanolin, tree nuts, synthetic fragrance, essential oils, parabens, and common synthetic irritants. It does contain cocoa seed butter (not a tree nut), soybean-derived ingredients (lecithin, glycine soja oil), and corn starch. If you have a known allergy to soy, cocoa, or any specific botanical, review the full INCI list on the product page and consult your healthcare provider before use.
Can the Balm help with eczema or dermatitis?
Yes. The Balm has been shown to reduce redness, dryness, and irritation of the skin and has a soothing effect on conditions such as eczema and dermatitis, attributed to the anti-inflammatory properties of its key botanicals, including calendula, echinacea, and bisabolol. If your symptoms are persistent or severe, consult a dermatologist or healthcare provider.
Is the Balm vegan?
Yes. The Bosom Ritual Balm is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. It contains no animal-derived ingredients — including no lanolin, no beeswax, and no animal fats. It uses candelilla wax and berry fruit wax as its potent, plant-based alternatives.
