Who Benefits Most from Lanolin? Anyone who's susceptible to dry skin (including the face, hands and lips) can benefit from lanolin's moisturizing properties. And let's face it — that's #allofus come winter. That said, King notes that it's "particularly great for eczema-prone skin types" and notes that it's even used to help expedite the healing process for minor scrapes, cuts, burns and irritation.
There are a handful of products out there, each formulated for specific purposes, that you can try. For example, the brand Lano makes lanolin the hero ingredient in all its products. Some favorites include Coconutter Hand Cream Intense ($15), which is made with pure lanolin, coconut oil, coconut milk and vitamin E, and 101 Ointment Multipurpose Superbalm ($17).
