So you’ve got half a jar of Organic Nipple Butter left, huh? Wondering what you should do with it? Customers have reported many helpful “off the box” alternative uses for lots of Earth Mama products. 

Lotions, Salves, & Oils

Organic Diaper Balm

Organic Diaper Balm is a multi-tasking bathroom cabinet must-have for the whole family, from knee boo boos to newly pierced places to athletically inclined toes and thigh chafing.

Sweet Orange Baby Lotion

Some mamas tell us they secretly use Sweet Orange Baby Lotion as a daily facial lotion, on extra dry or angry skin, and even on those tiny skin bumps.

Calendula Baby Oil

Use Calendula Baby Oil to make your own DIY diaper wipe solution, as a light and moisturizing hair oil, for flaky baby scalps, and to help soothe the diaper area too. It also makes a surprisingly effective beard oil for the guys in your family. Oh, and don't forget about face washing with the oil cleansing method, too. Belly Oil works well for that too! 

Cradle Cap Cream

Designed for sensitive skin, many of our customers have found this makes a great facial moisturizer if Earth Mama's lotions or balms are too heavy.

Organic Skin & Scar Balm

Formulated especially for unhappy skin, Organic Skin and Scar Balm is beloved for existing scars, breakouts, and minor burns too.

Organic Baby Face Nose & Cheek Balm

An organic alternative to petroleum jelly, Organic Baby Face Nose & Cheek Balm can be used to help soothe angry after-sun skin. It’s also great for new tattoo care as well, or to give yourself an overnight foot or hand treatment (just slather, then add socks or gloves). The same goes for Earth Mama's new Organic All Over Balm.

Organic Nipple Butterand Vegan Nipple Butter

This soothing organic balm is a naturally safe breast pump lube and soothes dry skin from cuticles to heels. But wait, there’s more! Earth Mama Nipple Butters moisturize healed tattoos, too. And, it makes a fantastic lip balm. 

Soaps, Washes, & Sprays

Earth Mama Castile Baby Wash

A perfect match for your DIY diaper wipe solutions, a super simple and safe household cleanser, and the base for a safe fruit and vegetable wash, Earth Mama’s Castile Baby Wash works as a plain old hand washing tool, too.

Herbal Perineal Spray

Spritz the cooling cucumber mist after sun, as a facial toner or after shaving – cools bugged out skin when you’re camping too! You can also keep it on the back of your toilet for post-period or anytime "down there" freshening up.

Organic Perineal Balm 

Use it as an under-eye depuffer. Just don't get it in your eyes please! 

4 Useful Household Cleaners You Can Make with Earth Mama Castile Soap

Organic Herbal Teas

Organic Heartburn Tea

Formulated for pregnancy with herbs traditionally used to relieve occasional heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion, Organic Heartburn Tea is safe for everyone and their mother. Feel free to tell your dad. 

Organic Ginger Nausea Tea

Pregnancy nausea isn’t so special. This tea can be used by our less pregnant friends as well. Brew up a pot during flu season and carry a bag in your purse for traveling.

Organic Peaceful Tea

Everyone gets cranky every now and then, so serve up a mug (or pitcher) of Organic Peaceful Tea for the whole family. And here’s a neat trick for teething baby gums: soak a very clean washcloth in brewed tea, lightly wring out and twist, then put the cloth in the freezer. When baby is fussy, chompy, or teething, they can chew on the cloth for relief.

Organic Third Trimester Tea

These very same herbs that help with third trimester prep can also help with leg cramps, pregnant or not!

Organic Elderberry Immune Tea

You can use this tasty tea to make your own elderberry gummies
