Key Ingredients

• Lanolin, Lanolin Alcohol -- moisturizing/emollient ingredients derived from wool grease, central to this cream's classic formula
• Petrolatum, Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil), Paraffin -- occlusive ingredients that help lock in moisture
• Glycerin -- humectant for hydration

• Positioned as an "Original" intensive face and body moisturiser, built around Lanolin and Petrolatum for a classic, deeply moisturizing formula
• 200ml size, also sold in 50ml and 500ml sizes by the brand
• Not to be confused with the unrelated US company "Astral Brands, Inc." (owner of Aloette, butter LONDON, and other brands) -- this is the UK Astral Original moisturiser brand only

• Sourcing note: This product's full ingredient list is confirmed directly from Superdrug's official UK product page, and cross-checked against an independent ingredient database (Skinsort), which is substantially consistent aside from one minor discrepancy -- Skinsort additionally lists PEG-3 Dioleate, which does not appear on Superdrug's panel. UK trade press confirms Astral is owned by DDD Ltd and that this "Original" formula has been in continuous use since 1953. The exact country/site of manufacture was not explicitly stated as "Made in UK" or similar on any source found, though the brand and its owning company are UK-based.
