NOW FoodsSolutions, Pure Lanolin, Wind and Harsh Environment Skin Protectant, Thick Jelly, For Rough Dry Skin, 7-Ounce

I bought this over a year ago. Just getting ready to re order. I have been very happy with it. Yes, its thick - After all it is LANOLIN! I put it on my hands and wait a few seconds while it softens. It will NOT get runny like hand lotion. It is NOT hand lotion. Some said it smells bad. Well, it is LANOLIN and it smells like lanolin. That should surprise no one. It comes from the oil of sheep skin/wool. One reviewer said it smelled like sheep. What else would it smell like? My nose doesn't smell it unless I put my hand right up to my nose. If you prefer the scent of wildflowers, I suggest buying some scented lotion maybe with lanolin as an additive. I wash my hands a LOT because my daily routine soils my hands all day long. I like this lanolin BECAUSE it is thick. It doesn't wash off the first time I wash my hands. I can still feel it after washing my hands several times. It helps to keeps my hands soft and prevents drying. I live on the east coast in PA, and the winter air here is VERY drying. I wouldn't use it if I was going through a receiving line shaking hands, but I do "wear" it around the house in the winter time and at night. If you apply it an hour or so before bedtime, most of it will soak in before retiring or you can wear cotton gloves to bed. I have done that if my hands or cuticles were severely dry. And to the reviewer who insisted that anyone who says it doesn't stink is lying - get a life. IT SMELLS LIKE LANOLIN. I don't find it offensive. Garlic smells like garlic. Limberger cheese smells like limberger cheese. Lanolin smells like lanolin. I like this product, it works, and it is priced right. I am happily reordering.

This pure lanolin jelly is truly an essential product for anyone seeking reliable, deep skin protection and hydration. Its versatility is one of its strongest features. As a shield against harsh weather, it works wonders, especially during colder months when the skin is more prone to drying and cracking. I’ve used it on my hands, feet, and lips, and it immediately soothes and heals, creating a lasting barrier that locks in moisture. It’s particularly effective for those with cracked or chapped skin—after just a few uses, you can feel the difference in the smoothness and softness.One of the best things about this lanolin jelly is its use as an after-shave moisturizer. After shaving, the skin can often feel irritated or dry, but this product not only soothes the skin but also helps to prevent ingrown hairs, which is a huge bonus. It absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling supple without any greasy residue.Additionally, this lanolin jelly is a lifesaver for anyone dealing with diaper rash. It’s gentle enough for babies' sensitive skin, providing a protective barrier that not only soothes existing rashes but also helps prevent them from developing. For parents, this is a game-changer in keeping their little ones comfortable and rash-free.Whether you’re using it to protect your skin from harsh weather, moisturize after shaving, treat cracked lips, or even care for your baby’s delicate skin, this lanolin jelly does it all. Its purity, effectiveness, and multi-use functionality make it a product I can’t recommend enough.

I had severely cracked heels. After showering, I applied this product to my heels over lotion while my skin was still damp. Then I topped with thick socks. Worked wonders for sealing in the moisture. My heal cracks sealed up using this technique. It might take a few days to a few weeks to see complete healing, but the relief is immediate. I like Lanolin better than petroleum jelly or Aquaphor because it is stickier and has a more moisturizing feel. It smells like a sheep, but the results are well worth it.

My daughter was having an extremely bad diaper rash due to a sensitivity in my diet from breastfeeding as we were resolving that we had to wait for the acidity in her poop to go down and something that would allow her bottom to heal from blistering. We needed a good barrier that was natural and healing. This worked better than desitin and Vaseline. We got desitin because we were desperate for something that would help her bottom heel however after reading the ingredients knowing it would be bad ..We were rather mortified that we were putting petroleum products and talc on our baby and they have added fragrance. But we needed a barrier and something that had zinc in it. Zinc is great for healing and there are other products that we can use that have the zinc in it but for barrier that was natural we chose this.. We would use something was thinking it and alternate it with this if needed. And I did not want to use petroleum, or talk or fragrance or some other added ingredients. So we needed something that acted just like Vaseline without being a petroleum byproduct. I was using my nipple cream for a barrier But even that wasn't thick enough for my liking the purple tube is mixed with something so that it is much more appliable to store nipples but is not super thick for diaper cream. This tub was very thick and worked great I used it after we would dry her off with every diaper change until her diaper rash cleared up. It does not have a strong lanilon smell although I love the smell of lanolin. So long story short this product is great It is thick a little bit goes a long way it'll stay on her bottom until it has wiped off between diaper changes. Helps her a lot at night If we're not catching her diaper change right away. This creates a great barrier creates great moisture is lasting for longer than any other product that I've gotten for diaper rash on the shelf. We use this at night with a disposable diaper now for routine care for her bottom. Just remember that this is not cloth diaper safe this will waterproof any cloth that it is applied to. So it is great as a diaper cream and great if you're using it with a disposable diaper but this is not something that you use for cloth diapering mamas unless you are trying to waterproof something it will ruin the absorbency. This also works as a nipple cream You just need to allow it to get warm between your fingers before applying It is safe for ingestion for infants. It's also great as a lip balm and other chapped areas..
