Lano 101 Dry Skin Super Cream
Right now, at the scrag-end of winter, skin's probably as dry as it's going to get all year. The central heating thermostat may be turned down, now (hopefully till autumn, what with energy prices being what they are), but it's taken its toll on our faces and bodies. Central heating – never mind sitting close to your log burner – is skin's Enemy Number One.
Riding to the rescue, though, is this super-rich new whipped-cream offering from Lano, the Aussie brand with skin-nurturing lanolin at its heart. And this is Lano's richest offering yet, with triple the quantity of lanolin, doing double-duty for faces and bodies wherever skin needs a really good dollop of TLC. In their own trials, Lano saw a 98% increase in skin hydration, partly through improved barrier function – something we're hearing about more and more, as the beauty world wakes up to the fact that we were designed to have a certain number of skin layers, and stripping away too many via strong peels and over-exfoliation is really damaging.
Dermatologically-tested, Lano 101 Dry Skin Super Cream is great for even sensitive skins (we can attest to that), and can be slathered with abandon wherever you hear your skin's cries for thirst – face, hands, feet, legs... All those bits that living in a centrally-heated house have basically turned into flesh-coloured paper. Because it's such a multi-tasker, it's also great for travel, cutting down on the products you need to pack.
'Super' by name, super by nature...
