Ingredients Explained

Emollient, Emulsifying, Skin Conditioning

Lanolin is a waxy substance secreted by the sebaceous glands of wool-bearing sheep. It is an effective moisturizer that works as both a humectant and emollient.

As a humectant, it is able to absorb up to 400% of its own weight in water; this also gives it emulsifying properties as it can help stabilize water-in-oil emulsions.

On the other hand, lanolin is able to reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL) by about 20-30%. It can also incorporate into the lipid matrix to surround skin cells and reinforce the skin barrier.

This is why you'll see lanolin as an ingredient for heavy-duty moisturizers.

You might have seen an "allergy concern" that gives lanolin a bad reputation. The rate of lanolin contact allergy in the general population is estimated to be under 0.5%, and most of these are seen in people with compromised-skin dealing with eczema, atopic dermatitis, or leg ulcers.

Healthy, intact skin tolerates lanolin well. Even people who have previously reacted to it test negative on patch tests when the test is done on normal skin.

Because lanolin comes from an animal, it is not considered vegan. Sheep secrete lanolin through sebaceous glands to help protect their skin from the environment.

Emollient

Lanolin Oil comes from lanolin. The solid version of lanolin oil is lanolin wax.

As an emollient, it creates a thin barrier on the skin. This barrier prevents moisture from escaping to keep skin hydrated.

This ingredient may not be Malassezia folliculitis, or fungal acne safe.
