5.0 out of 5 stars Don't believe the smell hype, it works!, January 6, 2010

This review is from: Now Foods LANOLIN PURE (Health and Beauty)

After suffering with cracked and bleeding hands for so long, this winter was the last straw. I searched for a natural alternative to those flowered potions that have drying ingredients in them, causing the endless cycle of: the more you use, the more you need. I have dry skin in the winter, but I also have a hobby of working on cars, so the cracked hands last all year. Dealing with solvents & parts cleaner is extremely drying, so for my hands it felt like winter all year long. I bought this product at my local Sun Harvest, because I couldn't stand to wait any longer, $ 7.99 for 7 oz., I thought that was reasonable since it will last a long time. A little dab will do ya! This stuff works great-it's like water-proofing for your skin!
There is a scent to it, but it doesn't smell anything like a barnyard or sheep poop-I know the smell of both, thank you very much and this isn't it! To be completely honest, with my knowledge of automotive fluids, this actually has a scent similar to clean/unused bearing grease (very light scent) similar to petroleum jelly. As you rub, the scent disappears completely-so CALM DOWN LADIES, you're not going to be walking around smelling like a "Brake Specialist"!

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Anhydrous Lanolin, Raw, not pharmaceutical grade, February 24, 2009

This review is from: Now Foods Lanolin Pure, 7 Ounce (Misc.)

i use lanolin to keep my heels smooth, and to keep my hands from drying out during winter

you can buy 2oz of processed lanolin, with the smell removed for about $15

you can buy a pound of unprocessed lanolin, with the smell of sheep for about $11

natural lanolin is anhydrous, dark in color, and has an odor to it

if you want lanolin that doesn't smell, get the processed hydrous lanolin

5.0 out of 5 stars Lanolin, September 29, 2007

Pure lanolin is ideal for chapped hands as it doesn't wash off as easily as most hand creams--it also doesn't dissolve the inks on glossy magazines. Used daily on your feet, it will prevent dry callused feet.

Lanolin is sold in two forms. One is "anhydrous" meaning it doesn't contain water and has an initial oily feel; the other is "hydrous" lanolin which contains water, making it creamy. Both are good.
