A while back I decided to buy myself some Lanolips after hearing Sharon Farrell on YouTube rave about it. So I popped down to Boots and got myself a tube and see how it worked.
Now, I'm a massive lip balm user to the point I think I have a serious addiction and normally, I make my own but the cold winter has been really cruel on my lips so I decided to invest in something a bit more heavy duty.

Lanolips is an Australian based brand and as the name suggests, it's a lanolin based product. Now, props to them for using only lanolin and lanolin oil and not making it stink of sheep and having really cute packaging but that's where the amazingness begins and ends.
It's not a bad product, not at all bit an over priced one. I dropped £10.99 on this lip balm and while it was nice, it wasn't nearly £11 worth of nice. It didn't really moisturise my lips sufficiently and I was liberally. It's a typical lanolin product and you do need to let it melt a wee bit before it spreads but I'd not consider that to be a negative in any way, shape or form because that is the nature of lanolin - it is a solid at room temperature. It melts really easily and applies nicely.
While it was a nice product, if you really wanted a lanolin cream, I would either make your own or buy nipple cream cause it's cheaper and would work the same. As nice as it is, there's nothing special about it other than it doesn't stink of sheep so I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you really loved lanolin based creams.
Slightly disappointed given the hype surrounding this product but it was nice enough bit not enough to make me want to rush out and buy it again.
