Lanolin Salve

Please note: Contains lanolin (wool wax). If you have a wool allergy, do a patch test before use. For external use only. Not recommended for acne-prone facial skin.

This is lanolin in its purest form — no fillers, no additives. Just 100% European Pharmacopoeia (EP) grade lanolin, the same remedy shepherds have trusted for centuries to protect their weathered hands.

Unlike lotion, lanolin doesn't absorb and disappear. It creates a semi-occlusive barrier on your skin's surface — a breathable seal that locks in your skin's own moisture, shields against harsh elements, and stays in place for hours. The key is applying it to damp skin, so it seals that water in. That's what makes it so effective for serious dryness.

Great for: severely cracked hands or feet, extreme winter dryness, eczema and psoriasis flare-ups, scar treatment, chapped lips, nursing mothers, cuticle repair, tattoo aftercare, and work-damaged hands.

Pure vs. blended: Choose this salve for maximum moisture retention and single-ingredient simplicity. Choose our Cure All Salve if you prefer easier spreadability and additional botanicals like shea butter and rosehip oil.

How to use: Start with damp skin — this is key. Warm a small amount between fingers to soften, then apply in a thin, even layer. A little goes a long way. For intensive overnight treatment, apply generously to hands or feet and wear cotton gloves or socks to bed.

About the texture: Pure lanolin is thick by nature — similar to petroleum jelly but with far superior skin compatibility. It will be firmer in cold weather and softer in warmth. That's completely normal and a sign of purity.

Ingredients: Lanolin (EP grade).
