Back when I had babies (50+ years ago!) it was suggested to put the ointment on a square of wax paper before inserting it in the bra. That way the ointment (it was lanolin we used, but I suspect it would work for any type) would stay where it could work rather than being absorbed by the pad. It also meant you could use less at a time.Winnie-retired and tired
