Formulation Guide: -Drop Point: Lanolin has a drop point of around 40°C. It should be melted gently, avoiding direct heat, to prevent degradation.
-Incorporation: Lanolin is usually added to the oil phase of a formulation. It can be mixed with other oils, butters, and waxes before emulsification.
In emulsions (e.g., creams, lotions), lanolin is often combined with emulsifiers to help stabilize the product.
-Formulation Tips: Lanolin can thicken formulations, so adjust the consistency of your product accordingly.
Due to its strong emollient properties, it’s ideal for products intended for very dry or chapped skin.

Shelf Life: 2 Years

Storage Guidelines: Here are some guidelines for storing lanolin:

-Temperature: Store lanolin at a cool, stable temperature, ideally between 50°F and 70°F (10°C and 21°C). Avoid exposing it to high temperatures, as this can cause the lanolin to melt or degrade.

-Container: Keep lanolin in an airtight, opaque container to protect it from air and light exposure. This will prevent oxidation and the growth of mold or bacteria.

-Humidity: Store in a dry environment. Moisture can promote the growth of microorganisms, which can spoil the lanolin.

-Light Exposure: Keep lanolin out of direct sunlight. UV rays can cause the lanolin to degrade over time.

-Contamination: Always use clean tools when handling lanolin to avoid introducing contaminants.

-Shelf Life: Lanolin has a long shelf life, typically several years, if stored properly. However, it’s best to check for any changes in smell, texture, or color periodically.

Following these guidelines will help ensure that your lanolin remains in good condition for as long as possible.

Caution: Lanolin is considered safe for use in cosmetics, but always ensure it meets the cosmetic grade standards for purity and safety.
If using lanolin in products intended for babies or people with sensitive skin, opt for purified lanolin to reduce the risk of irritation.
