Lanolin Benefits:
Moisturizing
Lanolin is a waxy substance, commonly known for its skin moisturizing qualities. Lanolin skin care abilities are made possible by its high concentration of esters and hydrocarbons. Due to the nonpolar chemical structures of its constituents, lanolin for skin care purposes possess strong emollient properties that allow it to be easily absorbed. For this reason, topical application of lanolin for dry skin (i.e. lanolin cream, lanolin oil) acts as a good moisturizing remedy that works to help improve skin barrier function and overall hydration. 1 2 Lanolin is recognized under the skin protectant monograph at the level of 12.5 to 50 percent. 3
