This is 101 Ointment from award winning Australian brand Lanolips.
The ointment contains 100% pure grade lanolin. In case you don't know, lanolin is a waxy substance taken from the wool of a sheep, after it has been shorn. The sheep are not hurt in this process so it is therefore vegetarian-friendly. Lanolin has a deep moisturising effect on human skin and hair as it is lipid-rich. One of the causes of dry skin is a lack of lipids, which allows water to escape. Lanolin fills in those gaps, preventing this. Lanolin also absorbs moisture from the surrounding air, promoting moisturisation and rejuvenation of dry skin tissue.

The 101 ointment comes in a handy squeezable tube. It comes out very slowly which is great as you won't ever squeeze out too much at a time. You only need such a small amount - It is waxy in texture and melts on your skin - a little goes a really long way with this product. I think it is simply AMAZING! I only wish I had come across this much sooner than I have.
I have to admit, when I saw this for the first time I was very sceptical about it. I saw it in Boots a couple of weeks ago. Squeezed a bit onto the back of my hand from the tester tube, played around with it, and with the excess that remained on my finger tip, I swiped it onto the middle of my bottom lip, walked away - didn't buy it and forgot about it. Then later that day, I noticed that my bottom lip felt extremely soft and smooth and couldn't think why.....I then realised that it must have been from using the Lanolips 101 ointment in Boots earlier that day. My top lip felt dry/flaky, and my bottom lip hydrated and smooth. I decided there and then that I would buy a tube as soon as possible. My lips wanted it!
I'm so glad that I decided to swipe a bit of the ointment on my bottom lip that day, otherwise I probably wouldn't have given it another thought. This is a product that I am literally falling in love with. It makes my lips feel seriously soft and smooth. One thing that I love about it is that once it is applied, it stays on the lips for such a long time - hours on me. So you need only apply it a couple of times a day once the lips are soft, supple and flake free. I tend to just apply this first thing in the morning and just before bed in the evenings and it's working for me - I'm waking up with soft lips every day now. It works so well! I've also used this on my cuticles and it softens them up a treat too. It's a fabulous multi purpose product!
You can also buy tinted Lip ointment, and hand cream in the Lanolips range too. I'm seriously considering trying out the hand cream!
Anyone else love lanolips?
Ah, that's where I went wrong! I saw it in Boots, having read all the hype, rubbed a bit into the back of my hand and didnt think any more of it - missed the bit where you apply some to your lips and are amazed! Am going to have to do the lip test next time now!
