Lanolin USP (Anhydrous)
Lanolin USP is a premium-grade, highly refined natural wax derived from sheep’s wool. Often referred to as “wool wax,” lanolin closely resembles the skin’s natural lipids, making it one of the most effective moisturizers and skin protectants available. Rich, emollient, and deeply conditioning, lanolin helps soften rough skin, lock in moisture, and support the skin’s natural barrier.
Its unique ability to absorb water while maintaining a protective film makes it a valuable ingredient in lip balms, salves, creams, lotions, hair care products, and specialty skincare formulations. Lanolin USP is prized by formulators for its exceptional moisturizing and conditioning properties.
