WHAT EXACTLY IS PURE LANOLIN?

Lanolin Anhydrous—sometimes mistakenly referred to as Lanolin Oil—is also known as wool fat, wool wax, wool grease or anhydrous wool fat. It is a greasy yellow substance secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing animals such as domestic sheep, and is one of life’s secrets for keeping your skin and hair hydrated and glowing.

It is an important natural ingredient that enhances the effects of your skin and hair care products. It works well with all skin types (normal, dry, oily, and sensitive skin) and hair types (straight, wavy, curly, and coily).

Lanolin Anhydrous also caters to the different needs of your skin such as damage from the heat of the sun, acne breakouts, itchy, dry, and chapped skin, and different needs of your hair such as hair loss, frizzy, greasy, and damaged hair.

COMMON PURE LANOLIN PROPERTIES

Pure anhydrous lanolin has a malleable consistency. This means that it can be pressed or pounded into any shape without actually cracking the substance or making it break. This material will melt at a temperature of 104 degrees Fahrenheit (or 40 degrees Celsius). Lanolin will stay hardened at room temperature unless it’s really hot in the room.

It forms very stable emulsions with water but is insoluble in it. Pure anhydrous lanolin is not water-soluble (it won’t dissolve in water). However, tiny amounts of water can be present in lanolin, which actually leads to a solid emulsion.

TWO TYPES OF LANOLIN ANHYDROUS

PURE LANOLIN (UNREFINED STATE)

Lanolin, in its unrefined state, is a naturally-occurring ingredient that is discharged from the glands of sheep in order to keep their wool moisturised. This leads to lanolin being a byproduct of the wool-harvesting process.

PURE LANOLIN ANHYDROUS (REFINED STATE)

As a raw material, this product is filled with impurities. Once processing has taken place to remove these impurities, we then have what is known as pure lanolin anhydrous. Lanolin in its pure form has similar properties to wax. The structure of pure anhydrous lanolin is also similar to skin lipids.

PURE LANOLIN USES: WHAT ARE THE SKIN BENEFITS?

IT MOISTURISES YOUR SKIN

Lanolin does not dissolve in water. So, what does this mean for every time you apply it to your skin? In simple terms, whenever the pure anhydrous lanolin is applied, it adds a layer to your skin. This layer keeps the water trapped inside your skin. And because of this, your skin is able to stay moisturised. It’s commonly used as a moisturiser cream to soothe skin and to treat nappy rash, dry skin, itchy skin, rough feet, and skin abrasions.

IT HELPS CONDITION YOUR HEAD HAIR

Pure lanolin is a fine addition to any haircare routine and is especially useful for thick curly hair as one of its best qualities is its ability to lock in moisture while maintaining softness.

IT HELPS MAINTAIN FACIAL HAIR

Lanolin is one of the main ingredients found in beard balms. This helps maintain a nice hold on facial hair. Lanolin can also be found in shaving cream for men/women.

WHAT PRODUCTS ARE FREQUENTLY MIXED WITH PURE LANOLIN?

Pure lanolin can be found in many different cosmetic products. Below is a list of common products that take advantage of this wondrous, naturally-occurring substance:

  • Hairspray
  • Deodorant
  • Soap, conditioners, and body wash

INGREDIENTS YOU CAN BLEND WITH PURE LANOLIN

Disclaimer:

Pure anhydrous lanolin can indeed offer many cosmetic benefits. However, keeping safety in mind, it’s important to refrain from using this substance if you’re allergic to wool (or lanolin itself). It should be noted that lanolin allergies are extremely rare. But still, they do exist.
