REVIEW: LANOLIPS 101 OINTMENT*



Hi lovelies! Recently, I received the infamous Lanolips 101 Ointment and I was so excited to give it a go! I'm one of those people that constantly suffers with sore lips. If it's really hot, if it's cold, if it's windy, if it's Tuesday, they're sore. So, reading up on Lanolips, I was super excited to give it a go. This balm is made from only two ingredients, Lanolin and Lanolin Oil. Lanolips is the first and only brand to use Ultra Medical Grade Lanolin, which is 3 times as pure as regular medical grade, making it the purest and safest lanolin in the world. If you're sitting wondering what on earth I'm talking about, Lanolin is the waxy substance on sheeps fur! This sounds really strange and I did wonder what on earth it was going to be like, but Lanolin so closely resembles our own skin lipids that it makes it the ultimate moisturisation ingredient.

So, does this balm live up to all the claims? Well, in a word, yes! If I wasn't already sold on the gorgeous baby pink packaging and cute little sheep on the tube, I was the second I put some of this stuff on my lips. It has a very thick consistency - it was actually difficult to get it out the tube! But once you rub it between your fingers or smooth it onto your lips, the product warms up and glides on smoothly. My lips were super chapped when I put it on as it'd been a pretty cold day, but after applying it before bed and sleeping with it on, my lips where smooth, soft and no longer sore the next morning! This balm provides instant relief on sore lips as well as being incredibly healing for dry, chapped lips.

As well as being a fab lip product, Lanolips can also be used on excessively dry skin, cuticles, dry nasal passages, nipples and many more. As it's so pure and gentle, you can use this all over. This is particularly great in the winter when it seems as though just about everything is getting dry (except the weather, boo)!!

Overall, I'd thoroughly recommend this product. I can honestly say this may well be the best lip balm I've ever tried, I love it!

You can check out Lanolips on the Lanolips site and at Boots.

What do you think? Have you tried Lanolips? Would you like to?
