Lanolin Alcohol Description

Lanolin alcohol is an emollient derived from lanolin. Despite the “alcohol” in the name, this ingredient is not a skin sensitizer. Instead, it’s a good fatty alcohol that can greatly benefit dry skin because it helps defend against moisture loss and maintain a supple feel on skin.
