101 Ointment Multi-Balm Reviews

I purchased this because I’ve had issues with the Strawberry one (the fragrance affected the condition of my lips) & I was curious to see how this fared, plus I’ve been searching for a more natural alternative to Carmex (a long time staple of mine).

This little beauty is described as a multi-purpose balm & can certainly be used that way, but for me I’m using it purely as a lip balm at present. The consistency of it is thick and it does solidify in the tube when the weather is cold, so sometimes I struggle to squeeze it out of the tube. Ingredients wise it only contains lanolin & lanolin oil so unless you have issues with either of those, it’s perfectly safe to use on sensitive skin (which I have and I haven't had any issues yet).

I have found it generally lasts a fair amount of time (maybe an hour or so?) before I have to re-apply, but my lips suck up moisture like there’s no tomorrow & I only use a small amount at a time. If I compare it with Carmex, then this is definitely longer lasting & feels more moisturising on my lips. I have noticed that using this in combination with my HG product (Bite Beauty’s Agave Lip Mask) has made my lips feel softer, although I still have to exfoliate them once a week to clear the dead skin cells.

The only negative is the price. $17.95 is too expensive for just a lip balm IMO, but you don’t need to use too much of this to gain the benefits. If you can make it work for you in other ways, then you’ll probably get more bang for your buck. I’ve already bought another tube for my handbag once my Carmex pot runs out & will purchase another one of these as a back-up soon. For me, it's time to say "goodbye Carmex, hello Lanolips!".

I have the entire lanolips lip range, and this is their plain offering, without any flavours, colours or other oils etc. This one is a relatively thin lanolin, presumably because it contains lanolin oil as well as lanolin, and while it goes on smoothly and feels great on, I don't find it lasts as long as my favourite lanolin product, Lansinoh.

Love love love this lip balm!! It is tinted so gives your lips some colour and is nice and thick so lasts for ages. So moisturising my lips feel so much smoother since using this daily. Highly recommend

Its good for just about anything.
i carry one around everywhere and properly own 10+ of these
it doesn't have an offensive smell
because it only liquifies in high temperatures, it doesn't make a mess when applying it
very nourishing
doesn't sit on top of the lips, so lips are hydrated

This is truly a multi-tasker for all skin care ailments - it's great for treating chapped and dry lips, soothing ragged cuticles and treating flaky skin around my nose when I have hay fever/colds! I love that you only need to use very sparingly and it doesn't leave a greasy film. Perfect as a base for matte lipsticks too. A tube lasts ages!

This is a great lip balm (although I believe it has many other uses too). It feels lovely when first applied, and it lasts really well, so although it is more expensive than some other lip balms, the larger-than-average tube ends up being quite economical. For those who don't like flavoured lip products, this has no taste whatsoever - another plus!

I love this product! It keeps my lips super protected and never ever dry. I keep one in my bag and use it for everything. A great product. The only downfall is the price for the size, it is quiet expensive, but it is a great product. I use it on dry spots and on the kids too.

Lanolips 101 is an absolute staple in my beauty arsenal!! This multi tasking product truly delivers nourishment and hydration to my overly dry lips. I use it for my cuticles, splits in my hands or feet and even on sores. Anything dry and I think this ointment would fix!
Housed in a 15ml tube it is deliciously thick and quite hard to get out of the tube when you first open it however gets easier the more you use it. It may seem like a small tube but this seems to last forever. I have several of these, one permantly in my handbag, one next to the bed and one in the medicine box. As well as owning several of Lanolips flavoured balms, can't have too many different Lanolips!
I use this every night before I go to sleep and wake to nourished, hydrated smooth lips with any cracking healed. Lanolips 101 is great for the whole family when they get colds and flus and have the poor dry red nose, using the highest grade of lanolin available contained in Lanolips it makes for a great wound/dry/split/flakey skin healing miracle for the entire family. Love...Love Lanolips!

A great ointment for everyday use when your skin is dry, irritated or itchy and especially great for dry or cracked lips. I find that is quite s thick consistency so a little goes a long way. I have been using it for years and love how it is medical grade and all natural. I do find that in winter it is quite hard to squeeze it out of the tube because it gets cold but it soon warms up.
