Lanolin is a by-product of the sheering process,
the oily secretion from the skin of the sheep that becomes trapped in the sheep's wool, and no sheep are
harmed in harvesting the oil.
This is the ultimate for dry skin as it is an incredibly
heavy oil. This thick, viscous oil is extremely similar to those natural oils we secrete from within our
own skin, and Lanolin's ability to attract moisture and allow it to be fully absorbed by the skin makes
the perfect addition to any of your bath and body products.
Lanolin can hold double it's
weight on water, so it makes a wonderful emulsifier for lotions and creams. Lanolin is temperature
sensitive, so keep temperatures around 110°F when adding to soap.
