Happy Tuesday folks! Hope your week is good thus far.

I recently decided to pick up some Lanolips 101 Ointment & Hand Cream because I had never tried them and had heard great things over the years. I chose their crazy popular Lanolips 101 Ointment Multipurpose Superbalm, Everyday Rose Hand Cream, and their Intense Hand Creams in Lemon and Coconutter.

I definitely have to say the cute packaging gave me more incentive to buy these. It’s simple, retro looking and I love it. I do actually kind of prefer a flip-top for hand lotion, but that’s just a small issue. These products, which are made in Australia, are cruelty-free, have no artificial fragrances, parabens, sulfates, petroleum, PEG’s or mineral oil.

Ok first off let’s discuss the 101 Ointment ($16.95 .52 oz), which is named that because it literally has 101 different uses! My main use was to be for my always chapped lips (though I have to say my lip injections have helped a ton with that, they are rarely chapped now!) You can use this on cuticles, chapped skin, cuts, insect bites, etc. It’s extremely dense (holds 200% of its moisture) and hydrating, and it goes a LONG way. Just get a small dab out, warm it up between the fingers and apply. It contains ultra medical grade lanolin which is cruelty-free and vegetarian. I LOVE this stuff for my lips. It feels very nice on, no scent/taste, it’s incredibly hydrating and adds a nice shine. The ONLY thing I would change about it is to add SPF and then it would be the perfect lip balm for me. Since Jack Black Lip Balm has been my HG since 2011, I know you want to know what I think about this compared to it. I actually like this a little bit more in some ways, but not as much in others. This seems a little more hydrating and like it penetrates my skin better. But the Jack Black has SPF and some nice scents so…I love both!
