Whether you're preparing for breastfeeding, already deep in the nursing phase, or just looking for some skin relief — these natural discs are a game-changer. Handmade from 100% natural beeswax, they offer a simple yet surprisingly effective way to care for your nipples without creams, patches, or complicated routines.
Soothes & repairs dry, irritated or cracked nipples
Beeswax forms a gentle, breathable layer over the skin that locks in moisture and helps prevent further damage. It’s naturally rich in vitamin A, which supports cell regeneration — making it ideal for soothing sore or cracked nipples.
Reusable, discreet, & easy to wear
The discs are soft, flexible, and shaped to fit comfortably under your bra. Wear them during the day, overnight, or chilled for extra relief. Perfect for sore, dry, or sensitive skin — no creams, no fuss, just natural beeswax comfort.
Naturally soothing & antibacterial
Beeswax contains traces of propolis and pollen, known for their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. This helps reduce redness and the risk of infection while calming irritated skin gently and naturally.
Helps prepare skin before breastfeeding
Using the discs from around week 36 of pregnancy can help soften and condition the nipple area before breastfeeding even begins. The natural wax barrier keeps skin hydrated and better prepared for the physical changes that come with nursing.
Handmade in Latvia with 100% natural beeswax
Each disc is carefully crafted by hand using pure Latvian beeswax, known for its rich texture and skin-protective qualities. No added perfumes, preservatives, or unnecessary ingredients.
Protects nipples from rubbing & friction
These discs create a soft barrier between your nipple and fabric, reducing friction and giving skin space to heal without irritation.

Pregnant moms: to gently prepare the nipple area from around week 36, before breastfeeding begins
Breastfeeding moms: experiencing dryness, soreness, cracks, or general nipple discomfort
Skin recovery: after irritation, friction from bras, or post-surgery (like C-section or breast procedures)
Anyone looking for a natural, chemical-free option: safe, simple, and gentle on both skin and the planet
Clean and dry your skin. Place the disc with the wax side against the nipple. Wear a bra to keep the disc in place (can be combined with absorbent pads). Rinse with warm water after use — and reuse again and again.
Tip: Store in the fridge for extra cooling relief.
Works continuously while you wear it — day or night.
Rich in vitamin A, which supports skin renewal and protection. Offers hydrating, soothing, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties.
The discs have a natural colour, ranging from light yellow to orange-yellow. They are resistant to breast milk, sweat, and water. Beeswax softens at +30–35°C and melts at +62–65°C. In cold conditions, it becomes brittle, so handle with care and avoid pressure or bending.
The product is biodegradable, making it kind to both your body and the planet.
For external use only.
Discontinue use if irritation or discomfort occurs.
Do not use on open wounds or severely cracked skin without medical advice.
Not intended for medical treatment – consult your doctor if needed.
⚠️Avoid use if allergic to bee products.
You can begin around week 36 of pregnancy to prepare your skin for breastfeeding. They’re also helpful during breastfeeding — especially if you experience dryness, soreness, cracks, or general nipple sensitivity. You can also use them after surgery (like a C-section or breast procedure) once the skin has healed.
Absolutely. The discs help hold healing balms or breast milk in place, so they stay on your skin longer instead of soaking into fabric.
Yes. The discs aren't sticky, so they need a bra to stay in place. Choose a soft, supportive bra for the best comfort and fit.
Yes — they’re made for daily, repeated use throughout your breastfeeding journey. Simply rinse with warm water (and a mild soap if needed) and store in a cool, dry place. With proper care, they’ll last for months. Shelf life is 2 years after opening.
Not at all. The beeswax surface feels smooth and soft. It warms to your body temperature and forms a gentle, light seal— no stickiness, no residue, and no mess.
If you have a known allergy to bee products (like honey, pollen, or propolis), you should avoid using the discs, as they may trigger a reaction.
The warning about honey applies only to eating honey, not to external contact. Beeswax may naturally contain tiny traces of honey or pollen, but these are bound within the wax and do not transfer to the skin or breast milk. There is no risk of botulism from using beeswax topically.
Yes — beeswax softens at around 30–35°C and can melt if left in direct sunlight or near heat sources. In very cold weather, the wax can become brittle, so handle gently. Always store in a dry, cool place to keep them in good condition.
