Wool Fat Soap
Mitchell's Original Wool Fat Soap is made from the natural lanolin extracted from the fleece of sheep. The lanolin keeps the sheep dry, and is responsible for the soft skin on the hands of shearers and wool-classers, despite the arduous work of shearing sheep or sorting wool. The soap contains no strong synthetic scents or coloring agents and is gentle to the skin. If you have problems with soaps made from animal body fat with additives, we suggest you try Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap with its soothing lanolin. This fine soap is still made to the formula developed in the early 1900's in Bradford, the center of the English wool fleece industry. It is offered in a gift pack of three large 5.29 ounce bars. Made in England.

Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap Ltd
Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap was first produced in the early 1930's by Bradford chemist Fred Mitchell who realized that the natural lanolin content of wool fat, which kept the hands of local sheep shearers and wool sorters so exceptionally soft, could also be beneficial to delicate complexions and sensitive skins. A simple and natural product, this soap is still made to Mr Mitchell's original formula, based on a recipe from the turn of the century and incorporating lanolin from the wool fat as the key ingredient. The business, Mitchell's Wool Fat Soap Ltd, takes its name from its signature product and is still producing quality soaps and shampoos in Bradford, England over 80 years later.
