The off-label use is endorsed by stars and thousands of shoppers.
This multitasker nips dry lips in the bud.
“I never leave the house without Lansinoh Nipple Cream … for my lips,” Carrie Coon revealed in a recent TikTok for Town & Country.
“You guys, let’s just talk straight here … nipples and lips are basically the same tissue,” continued the “White Lotus” actress, who fronts the magazine’s Feb. 2025 issue. “So, it stands to reason nipple cream is going to work very well on your lips!”
Coon said she’s “converted a lot of people to nipple cream for their lips,” and that “you don’t have to put it on as often” as a standard lip balm.

Kylie Jenner’s also a fan of the multipurpose beauty buy, having also posted an Instagram Reel during Paris Fashion Week last year that included Lansinoh.
“Nipple cream for your lips … it’s, like, the best secret,” she quipped at the time.
Made of 100% ethically sourced lanolin, the remedy replenishes essential lipids and repairs the skin’s natural barrier function, regardless of where you apply it. The cream’s racked up nearly 50,000 five-star ratings on Amazon — and, yes, many people use it on their parched pouts, too.
It’s also a winner to soften cuticles and dry heels, and is made without petroleum, parabens or preservatives.

While using lanolin on your lips isn’t groundbreaking, many shoppers love the value of Lansinoh’s 1.41-ounce tube and the scentless formula. It’s also available in a three-pack of .25 ounce minis for easy purse-stashing and travel packing.
“I don’t normally write reviews, but for this one I just had to,” one Amazon shopper gushed. “I did not buy this product for the use of nipple cream for irritation, but for my lips. I have tried every single product on the market to help my severely dry, chapped, bleeding lips.”
Continued the reviewer, “It took about a week and my lips returned to normal. It is a very inexpensive product and the bottle is pretty large! A little bit goes a long way. Highly recommend, this product truly changed my life.”
Coon also noted the big tube, but warned about dropping it: “People pick it up for you, then they’re embarrassed; so, don’t drop it.”
