This product is a very rich, oil-based moisturizer. Suitable for very dry skin that needs constant moisturzing. Would not recommend to oily skin. Also sensitive skin should be careful because there is sheep oil that can cause sensitization and even inflammation for sensitive skin.

It is a simple formula with one purpose in mind: moisturizing. The second and third abundant ingredients are mineral oil and sesame oil, both proven excellent moisturizing factors. And also there is vaseline (petrolatum).

But there is no anti-oxidant or sun protection content in this product. Therefore it has no protection effect against aging.

Safety alert: Cautious

  • contains lanolin, which is very thick substance derived from the sebaceous glands of sheep. Lanolin is a rich emollient especially for dry skin. It can cause breakouts for someone with oily skin. To sensitive skin it may be a irritant.
  • The fourth abundant ingredient is propylene glycol, which is a potent skin irritant and could provoke skin irritation and sensitization at concentration as low as 2%. As it is at the top of the ingredient list, the concentration may be high of concerns.
