Best place to get lanolin?

[Lu28]

Where should I look and what sort of prices are normal? I've heard of scented ones, how long does the scent last?

So I could use Lansinoh? I might have some left!

How do you do it?

I've just got heaps n heaps of the stuff in this morning! I'm just trying out a scented one now but it's quite strong but not overpowering in the same way iykwim? You just melt it in hot water and a squirt of baby wash

with lansinoh i use one tsp of lansinoh (which is actually about 1/2tsp since you cant fill the spoon up properly haha) then i add a squirt of baby bath or lately ive been using wool wash, woolite i think it is called? just a little bit, put those two into a cup with some boiling water, stir it all up till its FULLY mixed, and i say this in caps because last time i did it i didnt mix properly and i ended up with full on splodges of lansinoh all over my shorties

then take a bucket and put in maybe 5ltrs of warm water, add the cup of water to it, give a quick swish with your hand then put the wool in, press it all down to make sure its all submerged, leave overnight, then in the morning, put it on a long spin in your washer then lay flat to dry
