Not gonna lie… the first thing that drew me to Lanolips Antibacterial Hand Cream was the pretty vintage style packaging and super slim fit-in-a-clutch sized tube. Not just a pretty face, this is a hard working handbag essential with double duties: medical-strength antibacterial ingredients plus moisturising ultra-pure-grade lanolin.
Independently proven to kill 99.99% of germs, including E.coli, it contains no alcohol, nourishing hands rather than drying them out. I’d describe the texture as quite silky, with a lovely light refreshing Aloe Vera scent. While not instantly touch dry - I wouldn’t use it at a keyboard - it does sink in fairly quickly on my hands (few mins), making it practical for use when out and about.
I regard this as a hand cream with antibacterial benefits rather than a hand sanitiser per se (alcohol-free EcoHydra is my go-to sanitiser), and find it reassuring that it provides the added bonus of keeping my hands germ-free.
