Lanolin is a waxy emollient and occlusive derived from wool.
It is excellent at reducing water loss and softening very dry, rough skin, which is why it is common in protective balms. Lanolin allergy exists, particularly in people with chronic dermatitis.
Usage & cautions
People with a confirmed lanolin allergy should avoid it.
