Product Description NOW® Pure Lanolin Oil is a powerful moisturizer that can promote the smoothness and translucency associated with healthy, youthful skin. Derived entirely from the wool of sheep, Lanolin extracts help protect sheep from both rain and moisture. This natural secretion is remarkably close to that of our own skin and has a texture that is similar to petroleum jelly. NOW® Pure Lanolin is perfect for use on very dry, rough or chapped skin.

Pure lanolin is ideal for chapped hands as it doesn't wash off as easily as most hand creams--it also doesn't dissolve the inks on glossy magazines. Used daily on your feet, it will prevent dry callused feet.
Lanolin is sold in two forms. One is "anhydrous" meaning it doesn't contain water and has an initial oily feel; the other is "hydrous" lanolin which contains water, making it creamy. Both are good.
So happy to find this good deal on something I need so much.February 5, 2008 Rosemary Gwaltney(Idaho, USA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I'm thrilled to find pure lanolin, so inexpensively! You see, I have an adult daughter who is severely disabled, must wear diapers, and has very sensitive skin. Her doctor and I, between us, tried everything we could find, for years, fighting one particularly stubborn patch of irritated, red-bumped skin. Then I found lanolin! Within two weeks, this patch, which was the size of a dinner plate, had faded almost completely away! I am SO impressed. Nothing else worked, prescription or otherwise. Three cheers for lanolin, and for this place which sells it for less money. I spent 15. on the first tube I found, which was 2 ounces! Thank you.

Lanolin -- in pure form -- is very difficult to find. This product is just fine and I'm glad to find a source for it. The fact that it is labeled "liquid" is a bit misleading. Under most temperature conditions it is a "cream." Nothing beats this product for chapped lips, cold-weather cracks, and heel cracks.
NOT like many years ago!!November 23, 2005 Lee F. Frank(Phoenix, AZ USA) This is really an amazingly pure form of lanolin, completely free of the traditional wet sheep smell. Although it is a stiff grease it is aborbed well, and relieves the "pain of psoriasis" for me so that I do not scratch and the lesions are slowly healing. It is not a replacement for prescription products, but really seems to work with them for good relief. As a child I used the old smelly stuff with rose water to cover the smell very successfully with other skin problems.
This is the really basic pure high strength moisterizer. It really does get absorbed into the skin.
I plan to buy more when my first shipment is used up.
Lanolin from NOW FoodsSeptember 30, 2008 George A. Rappolt This product does what I need it to do, which is to protect the skin between my toes from cracking open and bleeding. If you have severe problems with "chapped" skin, either from dryness or excess moisture, try lanolin.
