What is lanolin?
Lanolin is a naturally occurring wax found in sheep’s wool. It is recovered when shorn wool is washed and is widely valued for its ability to condition the skin and help maintain moisture.

Our much-loved Luxury Lanolin Wool Fat Soap, made using the traditional Mitchell’s formulation. It creates a rich, creamy lather and leaves skin feeling soft and comfortable. Choose a handy 75g bar for the sink or a generous 150g bar for everyday hand and body washing.
Option: 75g
