Learn more
Animal lanolin is a complex mixture of fatty alcohol esters extracted from sheep's wool grease, which is equivalent to sebum. Lanolin is extracted from sheep's wool and then purified. It is used in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals for its moisturising* and emollient properties and is particularly valued for its repairing and protective effect in nipple care for breastfeeding women.
However, animal lanolin has the disadvantage of causing allergies in some people, due to the substance itself or to impurities that are sometimes found in it.
We have chosen to offer you a 100% plant-based Lanolin Substitute, which, thanks to its similar chemical structure, has the same moisturising*, emollient, and protective properties as lanolin.
More than just a texturing agent, this product is also a genuine active ingredient with proven beneficial effects on the appearance of wrinkles and skin hydration *.
* hydration of the upper layers of the epidermis
Preservation
Hygroscopic product (tends to absorb water). Store at room temperature away from moisture. Close the jar tightly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Great product. I've added it to my routine (jojoba oil hydrosol) as a face cream. My skin is smoother. I confirm that the container is not suitable: I transferred it as best I could into a pump bottle.
Inadequate packaging; the container leaked inside the parcel, and a bottle would be more practical for handling. The product itself is effective.
I sent a message to tell you that the product had leaked, along with another product, and that the box was full of them... I even included a photo... no response at all! I'm very disappointed with this website. I had a similar issue with a previous order where the chia seeds had leaked in the box; they didn't even replace the products and issued a useless credit note... Considering the price of the products, I find this really unfair. Their customer service is nonexistent.
Very sticky and not easy to apply
Good vegan ingredient to enrich creams, oils etc. for dry and atopic skin.
