Sheep Punched, Mutilated, and Slaughtered—Urge Lanolips to Ditch Lanolin!

UN LAB Middleware Label: Title Ends

Skincare company Lanolips claims that the lanolin—the waxy substance on sheep’s wool—used in its products is “humanely (& cruelty-free) sourced” from “happy” sheep. 🤔 But do the sheep in the pics below look happy and humanely treated?

Of course they don’t! Companies use this type of language (aka “humane washing”) to trick consumers into thinking the products they buy aren’t harming animals. 😠 Here’s the truth: Lanolin is always a product of cruelty to animals.

The lanolin used in skincare products comes from sheep who were raised for their wool. By selling these products, Lanolips supports an industry that mutilates, punches, and stomps on sheep before slitting their throats. 🐑 😨 And now the company is trying to market lanolin to us as “humanely (& cruelty-free) sourced”? Wtaf.

Besides being cruel, using lanolin in skincare products is completely unnecessary. Shea butter, orange wax, and other vegan ingredients are super-moisturizing and don’t support the violent wool industry. 💞

Sheep and consumers deserve better—please urge Lanolips to remove all false claims from its website and switch to using only vegan ingredients stat.
