Review on πŸ’‹ Superlan Ultra Pure Medical Grade Refined Lanolin for Chapped Lips, 0.35 oz (10 g) by Karen Johnson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Unscented my ass for Lip Balm

First, the back of the tube lists lanolin AND jojoba oil as ingredients. I thought it only contained lanolin. I think jojoba oil makes it a little bit easier to apply. My main problem with this fragrance. It smells faintly of carnival, a petting zoo or a barnyard. If you apply it on your lips, you will neither smell nor taste it. HOWEVER, I put a small band-aid on my arm and smelled the petting zoo for a few hours. * gag . Also, mine had a big scratch on the back of the tube, I have no idea why. The small tube it comes in is easy to keep in your pocket and more hygienic than dipping your fingers in a tub. I photographed the Burt's Bees lip balm to help with size comparison. I'll buy a Lansinoh and see if it gets any less obnoxious. Update: After buying Lansinoh I will never buy this again. Lansinoh is also very moisturizing and doesn't smell at all. Not the slightest trace of smell. And you get a lot more products with Lansinoh for the $10 you spend. Lansinoh is marketed as a nipple ointment for breastfeeding mothers. However, the only ingredient is lanolin anyway, so if you just forget the packaging and can use it as intended (aka medicinal lanolin), then you're fine :)
