COMMENTS: I have used lanolin for years in lip care products and it's one of my absolute favorite ingredients. I've ordered it from a few places over the years, and the best type is the deodorized pharmaceutical grade because it's absolutely odorless and is a pale sunny yellow color. Lanolin that's not pharmaceutical grade has a strong odor to it and is a deeper color that has almost a faint greenish undertone to it.
I've ordered lanolin from WSP in the past, and it was an odorless product, so I thought it would be the same now. I was running low on my supply of lanolin (ordered from elsewhere when I order materials from another supplier), so decided to add a small tub to my most recent WSP order for fragrance oils to see me through for a bit.
Holy cow... was I shocked. It is NOT the same as I've received in the past from WSP and I'm thankful I only ordered a small container. This has a strong "sheepy" odor and is the typical deeper murkier color. Anyone who is familiar with sheep and lanolin that hasn't been deodorized will know what I'm talking about. As soon as I opened the package and could see the color through the jar, I knew based on the color this isn't the odorless lanolin.
I see other reviews here talking about "finally a lanolin without an unpleasant odor".... and that used to be the case with WSP when I've ordered it in the past, but what I received this time is certainly not the same as what I've received before. :-(

"Good lanolin"
COMMENTS: This is perfect for a more natural lip balm or gloss, although not Vegan (which I have a lot of people asking for now) its very humectant and gives the lips a shine. I use some in my body butter formulations too. Its great for cuts or scrapes. I add some flavor oils for lip products and clients love it.

the tiniest bit goes a very long way and it is wonderful!
hubby swears by it for his poor chapped/cracked and bleeding hands.
Male customers love products w/ lanolin and the ladies love finding anything that will help their mens hands be soft to the touch :)
Took a bit to learn proper percentages of use in my own recipes but wow! the results are fantastic!
Try it - it is very beneficial and feels great on sore skin.
Sells well - will keep this in stock.

"Lanolin is a wonderful ingredient for balms"
COMMENTS: My granddaughter has very dry, cracked skin that peels as it heals on her feet and elbows. I made a balm with olive oil, avocado, oil, beeswax, cocoa butter, and lanolin and it is just what she needed! The lanolin protects and absorbs and is great for her dry skin. I love that I have this on hand to help my family with their skin needs.

"Lanolin Butter"
COMMENTS: I used this in a lip balm which I gave to a friend who buys her lip balm for $8 a tube and she told me that mine is just as good. I also use this in my foot salve and my feet are so very soft. I recommend using a popsicle stick to get the product out of the jar and then throwing away the stick. Lanolin butter is VERY sticky. DO wear gloves. Put wax paper down on your work surface. LOVE this product!

"Good But not for lip balms"
COMMENTS: I tried putting this in my lip balm recipe and it burned my lips when I tested it. I don't know if I put too much in it or what but I won't do that again. It looks like it is of great quality though. I plan to use it in a foot cream because I think the burning came from it seeping into the skin quickly which will be good for callused feet. It has a texture almost like honey but more creamy like peanut butter. It doesn't have much of a smell.

"Used in CP Hand Soap"
COMMENTS: I used lanolin butter in a cold process hand soap recipe a couple of months ago. Honestly, I can't tell a difference in soap with or without the lanolin, so I'm not sure it is worth adding it to cp soap (not sure it retained its quality). The lanolin butter is a very thick consistency, but seemed easy enough to work with. Others have mentioned a bad odor . . . it did not affect my end product at all. I gave it a good rating because I'm sure it is a quality product. It may be more appropriate to use it in creams and lotions, so I'm anxious to try that in the future.

"Exceptionally high quality lanolin"
COMMENTS: This is an incredibly high quality lanolin and I have found it has ALWAYS come fresh. There are other suppliers whose lanolin has an almost off-odor, but WSP's lanolin is always fresh and always has the clean scent that lanolin should have. I just truly wish that you could purchase in buckets rather than the small 1lb jars. Those jars annoy me to death.
