Lanolin

Translated directly to “wool oil” in Latin, Lanolin has been used for millennia as it functions similarly to human skin lipids. Lanolin’s natural properties exhibit moisturizing and soothing capabilities, often used in personal-care applications targeting dry or damaged skin. Additionally, Lanolin is commonly included in cosmetic formulations for nursing mothers, topical creams and ointments, and a wide range of everyday soap products. A variety of industries take advantage of this ingredient for its emollient, lubricating, and emulsifying properties.
