Great natural skin softenerOct 15, 2009
By thorvald
I love this stuff.
I've been trying to reduce the quantity of chemicals in my life (read your lotion bottle ingredients list sometime, even the so-called natural ones), yet still want a hand lotion of some sort. Then I recalled when I was young and raising sheep, how wonderfully soft my hands would feel after handling the sheep, from the lanolin in their wool. I searched a bit and settled on this pure lanolin product from New Zealand from Australian sheep (no idea why they didn't use NZ sheep, they do have a few there). Anyhow, it comes in a set of 4 2 ounce jars. I'm on about my 6th jar, so have 'tested' it out thoroughly.
Initially, it's a bit odd to use as the lanolin is a bit thick and waxy--like an oily wax. But it is _not_ oily or greasy. Scoop out a tiny bit and rub it into your hands, or feet, thoroughly. Within a minute or so your hands don't feel like you have anything on them yet feel very soft. There is a great progressive effect with continued use--dry/dead skin patches, like on the feet, are now soft and feel moisturized. It lasts a long time, even through hand-washing, so I'm using far less than I did of normal hand lotions.
This lanolin does have a slight smell. It's not flowery like artificial scented products, but also doesn't smell like sheep or such. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it's inoffensive and goes away quickly.
I use this lanolin daily on my hands, about weekly on my feet, and sometimes on my face. It agrees with my skin, which tends toward breakouts, and causes no problems. Seems to decrease wrinkles around the eyes, but I haven't used it long enough that way to be sure about that.
The lanolin does melt if it is, for example, left in a hot car. So be wary of which way the jar has been sitting if you open it when it's warm. The stain on my upholstery isn't too noticeable, however. It does rub into the skin quite nicely when it's melty, though.

Terrific replacement for ChapstickMar 16, 2010
By Kate Wendleton
Did you know that Chapstick contains an ingredient that makes your lips dry? This is to make you want to use more of their product. Just as bad as the tobacco companies. My husband's doctor told him not to use chapstick anymore.
Lanolin hydrous is white-looking, so it's unattractive. Instead, my husband fills empty Chapstick containers with this product by simply running the tube into the jar. Then he uses it as he would a regular chapstick, but IT DOESN'T MAKE HIS LIPS DRY!

 Pure lanolin, just what I wantedOct 07, 2010
By E. Travis
This is not a cream of lanolin and water, it's pure lanolin. It is thick and slowly soaks in, so you're not going to want to do much with your hands for a few minutes after you put it on. I take it on outdoor trips to keep my hands from getting too beat up and dried out.

Excellent quality.Sep 12, 2009

Works very well on rough, dry skin. Also used it on my dog as she has dry, scabby skin.

My favorite new discovery! A little goes a very long way.Jul 22, 2011
By Mary Jane
"MJ"
I have been using this lanolin for almost one month and it has been working beautifully. It even keeps my hands moisturized between washes. I opted for the pharmaceutical grade quality since I was worried about possible chemical contaminants which might cause my skin undue irritation or harm.
I have very sensitive, very dry and eczema prone skin and I have sensitivity to most cosmetic brands. I have therefore been relying primarily on pure unrefined shea butter to keep my skin moisturized however I was still not completely satisfied since I have to keep re-applying the shea butter throughout the day to keep my hands, especially my knuckles, properly moisturized.
I like my products to have multi-purposes uses so I have also been using it:
i) on my bikini and underarm areas (in conjunction with aloe vera gel & castor oil) after epilating to prevent/reduce ingrown hairs;
ii) as a night time facial cream (in conjunction with non-comedogenic neem seed oil & shea butter);
iii) as a lip balm to prevent dry chapped lips
CON:
It is a very sticky wax so a lanolin cream would probably be more suitable if you wish to use it over large areas of skin.
