Lanolin

[sproutwings]

This is by far the BEST lip balm I've ever tried! It stays on FOREVER, and I've had NO chapped lips in over two years! (It comes in a purple tube, and most people know it as the breastfeeding mother's best friend). Just had to share! I SWEAR by it!

Does it have lanolin in it? That stuff isn't good for acne-prone skin. So, don't use it on the skin on your face..but I'm sure it does wonders for everything else.

sorry, what's it for in the first place?

the name is very fimilar to me...

does it have a fragrance in it? a doc told me that scented balms will eventually..

 

[sproutwings]

There's no fragrance. It's 100% lanolin. It's marketed towards brestfeeding mothers. You smear it on your nipples, and it reallllly helps cut down on irritation. I use it on my lips and anywhere else my skin feels dry. The stuff's amazing, and it's 100% natural!

HTH!

I am glad it is working but I do not think I could use it. Does anyone really know what lanolin is? It is basically sheep sweat. I am not into using it purified or not. Here is some information on it though.
