I managed to pick this up in the last vault, thanks BR! I have not used many products with lanolin before so was excited to try it. It comes in a little tub with a screw on lid. The packaging is indeed very touristy with the sheep. Reminds me of something I would see when visiting Queenstown.
It has a lovely thick consistency which I love and a nice floral scent. It says it can be used on the face and body, I'm usually weary about products like this as I never use the same product on my face and body but I decided to give it a go.
I was worried it would be too thick for my face, thankfully it wasn't! It absorbed so well and left no greasy feeling. I got no irritation or stinging and my makeup applied beautifully on top. My face felt soft and hydrated.
I also use on my arms and legs, it leaves them feeling noticeably soft and smooth. It absorbs quickly and banishes any dry skin. I am loving using this and I would definitely recommend it. A great all over moisturiser.
I first tried this years ago when it was sold in a coffee shop in Ashburton, and I used to buy it when we were driving through. And I still love it.
It comes in a cute twist top pot, very simple and straight forward. It is a very thick white cream, and we all know I love thick creamy moisturisers! I can't detect any scent.
It is slow to absorb on my face, which is not completely ideal, but it does absorb eventually and leaves my skin feeling very soft and peachy.
When I've finished massaging my face with it, I always massage a small amount into my hands. It is amazing. My hands are dry from the relentless handwashing at work every day, and this cream is fabulous at hydrating them. It is a decent sized pot for $25, so it is not too expensive to be used for a hand cream.
I highly recommend it for hands and face, and probably feet (though I haven't tried it on my own feet!).
Tips: Purchase it when you can find it, and use it often.
